A note from our founder
I believe that mindfulness isn’t just a personal practice — it’s a collective path forward.
Drawing from years as a Buddhist monk and teaching 20 million people worldwide, I created Mindfulness Exercises to make mindfulness accessible, practical, and rooted in compassion.
Together, we’re building a more mindful world — one breath, one moment, one compassionate action at a time. Thank you for being here. I’d be honored to serve you.

Mindfulness Exercises is a free, donation-supported library of guided practices, scripts, worksheets, and teacher training resources. Use the collections below to find the right mindfulness exercise for the person, feeling, or context in front of you.
A mindfulness exercise is a short, structured practice — a body scan, breathing practice, or guided meditation — that trains attention on the present moment. Most take 3 to 10 minutes and require no equipment or prior experience. The 3,000+ practices below are free.
Our library holds 3,000+ free mindfulness exercises — short audio practices, worksheets, and printable scripts you can use today. Whether you have three minutes or thirty, there is a guided practice to fit your moment.

From the Blog
Fresh practices, scripts, and teaching guidance — drawn from our library of 1,200+ articles.
A plain introduction to mindfulness meditation: what it is, how breath awareness works, how long to sit, and a few simple ways to start.
Five reflections on slowing down: what boredom does for the mind, mindfulness in education, meeting grief with compassion, guided imagery, and the quiet in ordinary moments.
Six simple practices I come back to for presence: three anchors, a 90-second settle, RAIN, a feeling-tone check, a silent-practice structure for teachers, and kindness with the breath.
Five mindful musings on self-compassion, silence, grief and trusting yourself, with ideas from Kristin Neff, Rick Hanson and Dan Siegel and a poem by Mark Nepo.
A reflection on how slowing down can bring gratitude and a sense of connection, with a six-step practice for breathing with what still works.
A four-step reset for loosening unhelpful thoughts through your body, your focus and your self-talk, with notes for therapists, coaches and teachers who guide others.
