Great instruction in developing mindfulness

I really have got a lot out of the step by step guidance in developing a mindfulness practice. The app has also helped me better connect with Henry’s teaching of the Dharma as it’s structured in an organized way so that I can better understand his system and how it comes together. Thank you so much! Cool graphics too.

Best Meditation App

I’ve tried several of the most popular meditation apps. None of them ever stuck. The Way has resonated with me and I am starting to understand what meditation truly is

Practical warmth

Headspace was an introduction to meditation for me. I also used Waking Up and found that useful — that’s where I ‘met’ Henry Shukman. He has a practicality or pragmatic flavor that’s approachable. There a warmth or joy that comes through. I think I’ll be learning some self compassion with this program. He comes across like a slice of whole wheat bread right out of the oven. 😜Sustaining and comforting.

Fellow traveler on the way

I am just starting off on this new app, however I am very well aware of Henry’s work from other places. He is an incredible teacher and has great insight into the nature of mind. I have especially loved his teaching of Koan practice. I hope Koan practices are included in this app as well. I am very excited to follow his instructions on this newly launched app.

Perfect for beginners and beyond. Fantastic.

I’ve been meditating, almost daily, for the past 10 years now. I used headspace for many years when I first started and Sam Harris’ Waking up for the past few years. I was so excited when I found out Henry was coming out with his own app. His knowledge and many years of experience as a Zen teacher make The Way by far the most accessible, simple, easy to use and enjoyable guided meditation app I’ve used. Henry’s is a fantastic teacher and his teachings are so simple, yet impactful that this app is perfect for beginners and more seasoned students alike. I’ve always wanted to come practice with Henry in person, but this app is the next best thing. Thank you to both Henry and his team for creating this app and making Henry’s experience and teachings so easily accessible.

Game changer

It’s been a treat I look forward to digesting chapters in The Way! What an accessible journey to help people access the awareness behind it all. I’ve done many guides meditations but it was more like going through the motions without getting deeper. Thank you for creating and sharing this!

Thank you very much

I think it is so far the best meditation app created. And I've tried many! Everything is very well explained and that makes the process really enjoyable. Henry's voice is so calming as well.

The way to go!

What a great app! It’s easy to use, interactive and I love the idea of a direct path toward the goal.

Great app

This is great Henry. First heard you on waking up and was so excited when I got the email about the app.

Wonderful

This app is simply wonderful. I came across Henry Shukman on Tim Ferris and Kevin Rose podcasts. Then I read his book which is one of the most enjoyable reads I’ve ever had. Really up there with Michael Singer’s Surrender experiment which is one of the best books I’ve ever read. Henry’s voice is sublime and you can just feel the genuine kindness and compassion coming from his heart. He is a real treasure of a human being and I am so grateful he has put the effort into this app. I simply love it and am finding it so helpful and better in so many ways than current apps. To go on a journey, it’s like having a meditation teacher, unlike other apps which are simply all the same guided meditations. This is so much better
