Waking Up is more than a meditation app. It's a gateway to a deeper understanding of yourself and to a new way of being in the world. Through guided meditations, lessons, and conversations with leading teachers and scholars, Waking Up presents the best of ancient wisdom and modern knowledge about the art of living well.

A Waking Up member since 2018, Grammy-nominated superstar drummer & composer Mark Guiliana brings an adventurous spirit, eclectic palette, and gift for spontaneous invention to a staggering range of styles. He’s become a key collaborator with such original sonic thinkers as St. Vincent, Matt Cameron (Pearl Jam/Soundgarden), Brad Mehldau, Meshell Ndegeocello, and the late, great David Bowie. Mark found inspiration in Waking Up with his 2025 album, questions (volume one), where he presents nine “questions” that investigate the quiet tension of unresolved thought.
