What we stand for

Like most good things, Mindfulness.com was born out of a lifelong friendship, and a shared desire to create a more kind and conscious world.

​​In 2014, mindfulness teacher Melli O’Brien and tech entrepreneur Matt Dickinson joined forces with one purpose in mind: To empower people to realize their fullest potential through the transformative power of mindfulness.

They wanted to find a way to make these time-tested mindfulness tools approachable, accessible, and practical for people to use in their everyday lives.

They decided to test the waters by creating a global mindfulness conference where people could gather and learn.

What they wound up creating was the world’s largest mindfulness conference: 40 of the most globally respected mindfulness teachers, a community of more than 300,000 people, thousands of transformed lives, and hundreds of thousands raised for mindfulness-based charities.

They officially launched Mindfulness.com in 2020.

Today, Mindfulness.com is a global hub for the mindfulness movement run by a small, scrappy, enthusiastic team of creators, tech wizards, teachers, and marketers who are committed to the vision of a more mindful world.

Our mission is alive in three main components:

• the annual Mindfulness Summit,
• the website as a library of educational resources,
• and the app — with over 2,000 practices, meditations, talks, courses, playlists, nature soundscapes, and more.

We’re grateful to be on this journey with you. Thank you for your ongoing support!
