Telesangha: Daily Guided Meditation by Phone
What is Telesangha?
Building a consistent meditation practice can be challenging, but you don’t have to do it alone. Telesangha was created to offer the structure and support of live, guided meditation—right over the phone. Each weekday, including holidays, you’ll join a small, welcoming group led by an experienced teacher. This ongoing community has been gathering since 2016, helping meditators stay committed and connected.
Why Meditate by Phone?
Research shows that the key to experiencing the full benefits of meditation is regular practice. Telesangha makes that easy by calling you at your chosen meditation time each weekday. All you have to do is answer the phone! (Currently, we can dial numbers within the US and Canada. International participants can connect online or through a local access number.)
Our approach is secular, evidence-based, and accessible to everyone—whether you follow a particular faith tradition, are spiritual but not religious, or consider yourself an atheist or agnostic. With Telesangha, you’ll learn both foundational and advanced meditation techniques, have the opportunity to ask questions, and experience the motivation that comes from practicing in community.
Join us and make meditation a simple, supportive part of your daily routine!
