About Waking Up
Waking Up offers guided meditations, multi-part series and recorded conversations about mindfulness, nonduality and related traditions. Series come from several teachers, including Henry Shukman on Zen koans and Diana Winston on levels of awareness, and there are meditations aimed at sleep.
It is a membership service with a seven-day free trial and a money-back guarantee, suited to people who want to study meditation in depth rather than only use it for relaxation.
