We're building a global, compassionate community one breath at a time.

Our founding principles are centred around the teachings of world renowned Gelong Thubten. Our mindfulness and meditation practices are non-religious and accessible to everyone.

We're different. Here's why

We use authentic, scientifically backed methods and teachings

At Samten, we believe that learning the art of mindfulness and meditation is key to providing us with a life and survival skill that is proven to help us cope with stress, sleep, depression, anger and grief.

Meditating with Samten has many benefits

Anxiety decreases

Practising daily mediation allows us to deal with negative thoughts and emotions that often cause us anxiety. In reducing these thoughts, the flow of cortisol and adrenaline reduces and our levels of oxytocin increase, flooding us with feelings of unconditional love, calm and security.

Increases energy levels

Meditation boosts the naturally occurring sleep-compound melatonin by at least 98%. This increase in melatonin allows you to sleep more deeply, more soundly, and more effectively, thus allowing you to wake feeling refreshed and recharged with increased energy.

Depression decreases

Systematic reviews of meditation and mindfulness practises have shown improvements in measures of anxiety, depression and pain scores. (Cambridge University Press, 2020)

Emotional stability

Meditation helps to support healthy emotional development in children. More mindful children are better able to act with awareness and to observe and accept their internal experiences without judging them.

Creativity increases

Meditation allows us to quieten the conscious mind thus allowing us to hear and respond to our subconscious mind which is where our creativity lies.

Meditation habits

When we practice meditation and mindfulness on a daily basis, we learn to find happiness within, and to deal with the negative thoughts and emotions that often flood our minds.
