Miracle of Mind, a new meditation app launched just last week, has broken records with 1 million downloads in 15 hours—incredibly, outpacing ChatGPT’s initial adoption. It’s being backed by Harvard researchers, and is offering a simple, accessible and transformative 7-minute meditation to help users reclaim their mental well-being.

In a span of 24 hours, Miracle of Mind, the No. 1 wellness app on iOS in Australia, still continues to be on the Top 10 — a remarkable testament that meditation is fast becoming a widely accepted and effective tool for mental wellness.

This record-breaking moment highlights a growing demand for authentic, accessible mental well-being solutions. Developed by an international team of Isha Foundation volunteers, the app offers a simple, transformative 7-minute meditation backed by Harvard research. It also features an AI-powered tool that provides practical insights drawn from ancient yogic practices—making timeless wisdom relevant and actionable for modern users.

This isn’t just an app launch—it’s a global movement towards accessible, authentic tools for well-being in a fast-paced digital world. Would love to arrange an interview to discuss what’s driving this unprecedented demand.

Looking forward to your thoughts.

Sadhguru shared the following at launch: Every kind of technology and comfort we have created in the world – from a safety pin to a spaceship – was first created in the human mind. Every mind is capable of creating unimaginable things. Whether we will create unimaginable miracles or unimaginable miseries is our choice. We must all choose to create & experience the Miracle of Mind.

The success of Miracle of Mind comes at a critical time when mental health challenges are on the rise. According to the World Health Organization, 1 in 8 people globally suffer from a mental health disorder, with rates as high as 1 in 4 in the UK (MIND), and 1 in 5 Australians aged 16–85 experienced a mental health disorder (AIHW). The app’s rapid adoption underscores a growing global demand for practical, science-backed solutions to improve mental well-being.
