"This program does what I previously had thought was impossible: taking an extremely refined system that can be overwhelming for beginners, and crystallizing it into a simple yet profound introduction which could be a starting point for further investigation, or an entire lifelong practice in itself."

Have you ever been so caught up in the moment, you felt as if time stood still? Like in the middle of a first kiss, or when you held your child for the first time.

Maybe it happens during less extraordinary events, like watching the sunrise on a cloudless morning or while listening to your favorite song.



When it happens your attention is becomes so intensely focused in the moment, that everything else seems to fade away. Suddenly, you sense that you're part of something bigger.



You're energized. You feel profound happiness.



But did you know it is possible to have a similar experience by simply taking a sip of your morning coffee, or during your commute to work (yes, traffic jams and all )?



And you already have everything you need to do it inside you.



If you look carefully, these peak experiences are always available to you, and you can develop your ability to discover them at any time throughout your day.



Once you know how to harness and focus your attention - to live fully "in-the-moment" - you can awaken your innate ability for happiness, no matter what life throws your way.



The Unified Mindfulness CORE training program was created to show you how to put the pieces together so you can start your journey down the path toward a more enriched, fulfilled life.

What Exactly is Unified Mindfulness?



"Mindfulness is an unreasonably effective way

to increase human happiness."



- Shinzen Young



But although the Unified system is simple - it is extremely powerful.



And one of its main strengths is its precision.



It's so precise and dependable in fact, that institutions like Harvard Medical School, Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Vermont use it as the basis for their research on meditation and its application in the neurosciences, psychology, clinical sciences.

"As far as my thoughts on the utility of Shinzen’s system in research goes, I always say that it offers an algorithmic approach to understanding the mind of the meditator that other systems of mindfulness and meditation do not. This makes mapping the meditative mind more feasible in a laboratory setting and provides an opportunity for a rigorous neurophenomenology.

Mindfulness is a set of skills that you can learn and develop.



It's like a gym for your mind, and it can radically transform your life.



But if you're like most people, you're probably wondering...



So Where Do You Begin?



Ten minutes a day is all you need to quickly build a life-changing, daily mindfulness meditation practice.



And if it's hard for you to find an extra ten minutes in your day, you're still in luck.





And as your mindfulness practice deepens, you'll want to bring it into your daily activities to enhance your enjoyment when things are going well... and to help you deal with things more effectively when they aren't.



Ordinary activities like eating or brushing your teeth can become extraordinary events.



Coping with the constant pressures of our high-stress, modern lives can become much easier when you develop the tools to skillfully face them.

Another one of the main strengths of the Unified Mindfulness system is that you can take it "off the cushion" and into your daily life.And as your mindfulness practice deepens, you'll want to bring it into your daily activities to enhance your enjoyment when things are going well... and to help you deal with things more effectively when they aren't.Ordinary activities like eating or brushing your teeth can become extraordinary events.

"Very Precise! I really enjoyed how precise and in depth the course was. If I didn't understand something it was made clear after taking the quiz. Great system here, I'm definitely going to recommend this to my friends and carry on to the teaching course!"

- Stephen Anguiano

What is the CORE Training Program?



The interactive CORE training consists of 10 video-based lessons, each with its own self-paced quiz designed to test and reinforce what you've learned in each video. It was built for people brand-new to meditation AND for highly experienced meditators who would like to explore the Unified Mindfulness system.



"...Unified Mindfulness' strategies are both simple and therefore readily learnable, yet deeply transformative."



- Peter Marks



Executive Director



The Centre for Care Canada



If you're new to meditation, you'll find that it's simple, straight-forward lessons make Unified Mindfulness easy to understand and just as easy to put into practice.



Experienced meditators will discover Unified Mindfulness's simple, yet highly flexible framework presents a multitude of options, allowing you to optimize your existing practice based on what works best for you.



"In my lab we study the effects of mindfulness meditation on stress and health, and we consistently turn toward using Shinzen’s Unified Mindfulness system in our studies for one simple reason, it works.



I personally have been using Unified Mindfulness techniques in my daily practice for several years, I find they are clear and powerful. This approach will change your life, try it and you will see."



- Dr. David Creswell



Director of Health and Human Performance Laboratory



and Associate Professor of Psychology



Carnegie Mellon University



Each lesson has its own group discussion area so you can interact with the Unified Mindfulness community to get answers to questions that may arise during your lesson.



Most people find guided meditations helpful, so once you've completed the ten CORE lessons, you'll put what you've learned into action with two guided meditations that you can download and use anytime, anywhere you want.



Finally, we've also included a special, advanced bonus lesson: "See, Hear, Feel" that will give you a fun and easy framework to use as the foundation of your own daily meditation practice.



The CORE training program has everything you need to put the pieces together and develop a life-long mindfulness meditation practice.



"Fantastic! I consider myself as someone who is very familiar with this 'System' of mediation, and yet going through this course, I would find over and over again subtitles iI hadn't realized or gave proper emphasis on!

The whole course is laid out in a simple step by step format that covers such a vast amount of meditative/contemplative possibilities in a easily digestible format.

Wonderful, I would (and already have) wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone who is interested in, or is already engaging in a meditative practice."

- Paul Chadwick

"This course stands out. This is an amazing course. I've been meditating and reading/watching/listening to other various instructions for 3ish years now, and this one stands out the most. I highly recommend it."

- Wesley Ivie

"Fabulous Course. Love how Julianna is so clear and concise. Since Shinzen was my teacher when I was in the ministry in the early 1980's, I didn't think anyone could teach his method...and I started the course hopeful, but also skeptical. I was so happy after completing it...and have sent the link for friends and clients to take the course as well. I am now half way through the teacher course...and also loving it. I am teaching a corporate class at the same time...so I really appreciated both courses. After years of teaching Mindfulness classes, I deeply appreciate Unified Mindfulness courses to help me become a better teacher."

- Janet Jackson

"Absolutely love it! I've been searching for a meditation practice that suits me since I was 16! It's been a long journey, 25 years, but I finally found what I've been looking for. This practice is so beautiful and simple, but so profound, with such deep insights. I can feel how powerful it is already and I've only just begun. Thank you so much Shinzen and Julianna for your wonderful work!"

- Julie-Anne Graham

"Clear, condensed wisdom of mindfulness. I loved the clarity and flexibility of this experience and approach to mindfulness. I have been drawn to many Shinzen Young teachings and this is no exception. Neatly defines mindfulness, experience and gives some brief and powerful practices that can be used both in formal practice and throughout the day. "

- Jeff Catania

"Exactly What I Needed. Thank you so much. I've been meditating on and off for a lot of years now, and following Shinzen's teachings (also on and off) for a few years. Having the ideas broken down into bite sized, consistent chunks really got me excited about and committed to developing a regular, consistent meditation practice."

- Lyman Reed

The CORE program is a great introduction to Shinzen Young's system and I am really pleased with his framework, which I found to be Clever, Original, Rigorous, and Engaging.

Thanks/metta to Julianna again and congratulations/metta to Shinzen Young for developing "Unified Mindfulness."

- Antonio Pinon

"Fantastic resource - I would like to say a big thank you to providing this amazing free resource. It has personally helped me redefine my practice. In particular, I was really impressed by the simplicity and effectiveness of the teaching methods and content provided. The way the visuals and presentations were laid out and explained really helped the information "stick" with me. I've since been able to be much more effective and motivated to continue with regular daily practice, as well as being able integrate the techniques to my daily life 'off the cushion.'"

- Erica Bona

"Very good structure and animations that makes things very clear"

- Hans Wöhrman

"It is really the best course I have followed and say that as a practitioner of Vipassana and Zen and being a teacher without charge (it is my way of helping others) It is so good that I thank you very much and congratulate you for that great contribution to training people freely in mindfulness practice.

I would like to have the possibility of downloading the course to translate it into Spanish (I live in Spain) to share it with people I know have the intention of practicing mindfulness. This would be a very good gift.

Thank you very much and congratulations."

- Manuel Burque

"This is very very useful. I could never have imagined something so simple, subtle, precise and flexible. I have used different techniques over time from counting the breaths, to Vipassana as taught by Goenke.

The lovely thing about this course is that it helps and does not hinder other courses i have previously done.

Cognitively it is fascinating just as Vipassana is. But, as Juliana notes, one does not need to form a guilt relation with the practice as can happen with Vipassana.

Anyway, I loved it and I am beginning to link it more and more with everyday life. It has given me a sense of ambition with meditation, and a feeling that with work I really can change things in my life, and in the lives of others too, for the better. On the basis of the core program I am embarking on the longer training program with Julianna and Danny.

Many thanks for helping me to do all this!"



- Charlie Bulbeck

"Sharing information as valuable as this is what the internet was created for. You are modern day bodhisattvas: "those that do not aspire to enlightenment purely to free themselves from suffering; they do so out of compassion in order to liberate other sentient beings".

I hope that you reach around the planet and that this teaching becomes general knowledge. People of all religions will find their faith revitalized if they practice these teachings. Thank you Julianna, for an excellent presentation of your knowledge and to Shinzen for the creation of such a simple but profound way to practice."
