Get your yoga mat and your favorite infusion ready. We are about to enter a state of deep peace.

Buddhist wisdom in the palm of your hand

Lojong, which translates to “mind training” in Tibetan, has its roots in 11th century Mahayana Buddhism. These teachings were designed to cultivate compassion and wisdom through a series of meditative and reflective practices.

In a world saturated with social media notifications, Lojong emerges as an oasis to bring you peace.

These techniques have been adapted to a digital environment to make them accessible to a global audience, allowing anyone to benefit from this ancient wisdom no matter where they are.

Mental entertainment for the digital era

Lojong is not just an app with meditation guides, it is a structured program that guides you through different levels of practice.

The app is based on 59 traditional mottos that serve as reminders and guides to promote positive mental and emotional qualities. 

Each motto is presented with an eloquent explanation, a suggested meditation, and practical exercises that you can apply in your daily life. As you progress, the app offers daily reflections and challenges to keep your practice fresh and effective.

Outstanding features

All you need to use Lojong on your smartphone

Lojong is a free app available on both iOS and Android. However, it does offer purchases within the app to access premium content. Regardless, the free version is robust enough to provide an immersive experience. 

To install Lojong you require a mobile device running iOS 10.0 or later, or Android 5.0 and later. You will also need to have an internet connection to download the app and access some of the content.

In an increasingly hectic world, Lojong reminds us to take time to stop, breathe and look inward. So the next time you feel like the world is moving too fast, remember that you have a tool in your pocket at your fingertips that helps you with just a few taps to find some much-needed peace.
