A RESEARCH-DRIVEN ORIGIN
We are ZenVR™: A Virtual Reality Based Meditation Learning System and Virtual Classroom. We combine the structure and teachings of real-world classes in the practice of meditation with the immersion of VR. With progressive lessons taught by your own instructor, you can learn the basics of meditation and a variety of mental and physical techniques you can use to bring balance, focus, and calm from virtual reality to your reality.
​
ZenVR™ began as a Master's Thesis project at The Georgia Institute of Technology. The ZenVR™ experience has been empirically proven to successfully guide novice meditators through their journey and affect real-world change, increasing mindfulness and equipping them with tools they can use in their daily lives. Now we've transformed this prototype into a product to distribute across VR platforms and share the benefits of meditation with the world.
​
We design, develop and produce VR software not just for individuals, but organizations looking to improve their population's wellness.

THE PROBLEM
We all know stress, anxiety, and depression aren’t fun. We’ve all dealt with them, either personally, or through family and friends. We’ve all probably heard that meditation can help with dealing with these issues and provide other science-backed benefits to your mental well-being.
​
But if it’s so obvious that meditation is good for us, why isn’t everyone doing it? One of the hardest things about learning meditation is figuring out where to start. There are thousands of individual videos and books out there, but no clear path to progress through them. There are meditation apps that push trendy five-minute relaxation sessions but lack depth or growth.
​
The best way to learn meditation is from a real teacher in a class, but those can be hard to find and incorporate into your everyday life.
THE SOLUTION
With ZenVR™, we bring that classroom experience right to your home. When you put on your VR headset and come to our virtual Zen Dojo we make meditation as clear and structured as possible with our research backed curriculum.
​
Unlike existing meditation phone apps, we teach Meditation Beyond Relaxation and focus on education, depth, and growth. We utilize the fully immersive qualities of Virtual Reality to bring dynamic experiences to the classroom and remove the distractions of the outside world while fitting into your everyday life.
​
Our masters research study is a case study in how our approach can help YOU to not just learn the skills and techniques, but build a habit of practice. "In Phase II, we found participants meditated between one and four times between each lesson and after completing the study, 13 out of 15 of them continued meditating on their own."
We're here to provide solutions for group needs such as corporate wellness for a team of employees; patient care at a counseling center or hospice; and student wellness at a university. While still providing an immersive instructor-led classroom experience. Click below to learn more about ZenVRTM Enterprise solutions and how a VR meditation learning system may fit your needs.
