## What is Kelee® Meditation?

What is the Kelee®?
Have you ever felt the sensation of emotion well up from within you? This emotion is found in the Kelee that resides within us all.
The roots of the Kelee date back three thousand years in ancient Sanskrit meaning, "having to do with different states of mind or point hunter." In Greek and Hebrew, Kelee translates as vessel or receptacle. This vessel — your Kelee — holds all of our life's harmonious and disharmonious emotion within.

What is Kelee® Meditation?
Kelee Meditation is a simple 5 minute practice, that teaches you how to still your mind. Learning to still your mind will help you begin to understand your conscious awareness and how your thoughts and emotions influence your life. You will learn where your troubling thoughts and emotions reside within you, and how to dissipate them ... for good.

How do I begin Kelee® Meditation?
Practice, Patience, Persistence. 5 minutes, twice a day, followed by journaling for self-reflection. Begin and end your day by relaxing your awareness through your Kelee and learn the beautiful experience of stillness in your own mind. As you start to clear your Kelee of negative thought and emotion, you will begin to notice things that used to bother you, simply don't. What greater gift could you give yourself, than to live from your own peace of mind?

### 5/5 — Nice update to the App

*2026-07-15*

I like that the latest App update provides:
1.) A guided meditation to assist you understanding appropriate durationof the practice. 
2.) A place to store your notes after each meditation.  
3.) Written and video instructions on how to do the practice.
3.) Where to find books to learn more about Kelee Meditation.
4.) A link to an immense library of content about Kelee meditation.

### 1/5 — More information needed

*2024-07-28*

The meditation instruction provided in this app is very abstract and unhelpful. What does this mean — feel your conscious awareness? What is the user supposed to feel or not feel? Think or not think? 

Also, the app is not functioning correctly. When I try to listen to the recordings and videos again, they don’t play.

### 3/5 — More instruction?

*2021-09-16*

I heard a podcast on this method and was eager to try. I love the journal but I would like  to have more instruction or guidance to moving my attention downwards. Maybe even some sound bath-like sounds while I "moving my attention down." I felt like I was just guessing where I need to be at a certain time.

### 2/5 — Pretty terrible

*2020-06-18, version 1.4*

I’m not commenting on the practice here, just the app. It’s terrible, the info page is a screenshot (with not all words visible on the page). The main function is a voice prompt / timer which is very basic. Definitely not worth paying for.

### 5/5 — The Kelee Meditation Saved My Life

*2019-12-21*

I have been practicing Kelee Meditation for over 12 years. It is the single most important activity I engage in for mental health and physical wellness. When I come to complete stillness of mind, I feel into the depth of who I really am, outside of the hustle of everyday life and the world “out there”. In this space within myself, I can find stillness and peace of mind...this is the purest form of freedom I have ever experienced. I began practicing this meditation because I was in a rough period in my life and actually at a breaking point. I was using substances to cope with the negative dysfunction in my mind, which ran like a broken record that I couldn’t control. I thought I was losing my mind from negative self talk, and I felt horribly about myself. The Kelee gave me my mind and my life back. Because of this practice, I have realized that all of those negative thoughts are compartments...bits of trauma picked up along the way...they aren’t me. With time, and with the practice, my compartments are dissolving, and I feel who I really am underneath the chaos of negative thoughts. The Kelee is a gem beyond comprehension and it has brought me to life. I am beyond grateful to this practice and to Ron Rathbun for making the Kelee Mediation Practice accessible to all.

### 1/5 — Are you kidding

*2019-11-24*

Any legitimate benefit from this type of meditation is belittled by this amateur app. The page that tells you how to do it is half missing ha ha

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2019-11-01*

The most basic meditation app I’ve ever seen.

### 5/5 — Greatest tool I’ve picked up in my life!

*2019-06-02*

This meditation has helped alleviate and clear mental compartments associated with post traumatic stress, anxiety, depression, and many other mental ailments I have suffered from my entire life. I am a better mother and functioning member of society because of this meditation. I can never repay the gift this meditation has given me, because it has given me my life back.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2019-04-09*

Can’t read the text as it doesn’t fit on the screen

### 5/5 — Peaceful

*2019-03-26*

This app and meditation has helped me so much with my mind and life. I feel connected to myself and less distracted by the world.

**Developer response:** Thank you, Peaceful.
