Vipassana at Home

Introducing an approachable mindfulness practice to a disconnected world through the pandemic.

Timeline

With a tight turn around, Vipassana at Home was conceptualised, designed and launched within a month.

Role

My role was to design and develop the end to end experience for the community, while supporting the facilitators to deliver daily mindfulness practices around the globe.

Personal Challenges

This was an opportunity to build a product from the ground up through moving fast in a small team. Our MVP allowed us to quickly get feedback from our users to validate the idea. Its since created other products and events.

Accessible introduction to mindfulness for everyday life.

Insights

The pandemic has shown us that people are willing to engage with online forms of personal growth and exploration. Self-improvement and new expereinces are among some of the things people have been wanting to explore when iscolated.

Opportunities

As a co-creator of Vipassana at Home. We have first had experience of the value a practice of meditation can bring, and with our combined vision of facilitation and digital experience, we began speculating on how we could introduce the practice of vipassana to more people, particularly when iscolated.

Furthermore, many people believe that taking 10 days out of their lives to participate in a traditional vipassana retreat is too much of a commitment. Our course hopes to become a stepping stone for those who want that first taste of a vipassana experience.

Introduce an approachable mindfulness practices to a world of busy and curious people.
