About Us
Founded by a team of meditation teachers, businesspeople, and industry experts, meditehere.com was created to help deliver the benefits of meditation to businesses and the new work-from-home world.
Corporate leaders increasingly understand the benefits that even small amounts of meditation can bring to employee mental well being and overall worker happiness.
We work with CEOs, team leaders and HR heads to define meditation programs that can fit easily into office or work-from-home environments. Our popular monthly subscription service, for example, fits well into any employee benefits program.
We serve companies in all major industries, including finance, investment, real-estate, media, software, fashion, retail, and more.
Finally, we embrace the notion of community and meditation. There is something very powerful about sitting in meditation with others, even on Zoom. It is a subtle feeling that is hard to put into words (try it!). That good feeling can carry out into the community at large, helping to create a world of equanimity and kindness.

How does meditation feel?
People use a range of words to describe what meditation feels like, including calm, serene, peaceful, and even blissful. Sometimes it feels like absolutely nothing, which may be best of all. The simple idea is that if you can stop the cacophony of your interior monologue, your “thinking,” for even a millisecond, you can start to derive benefits, which may be subtle at first, but grow as you practice.
