Isha Foundation's Miracle of Mind app breaks records with over 1 million downloads in just 15 hours

NEW DELHI: The Miracle of Mind app, a free meditation platform by renowned spiritual leader Sadhguru, has surpassed 1 million downloads within a mere 15 hours of its launch. This rapid uptake has taken the social media world by storm, outpacing even the initial adoption of ChatGPT.
Within just 24 hours, Miracle of Mind was trending in over 20 countries, including major regions such as India, the USA, Canada, the UK, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Germany, Kenya, and the UAE. This remarkable global response underscores the growing recognition of meditation as an essential tool for mental wellness.
The app, available in English, Hindi, Tamil, Russian, and Spanish, offers a 7-minute guided meditation that has quickly become a viral sensation. Users across the world have embraced the app’s simplicity and effectiveness, with many praising its ease of use and immediate impact on their well-being.
In addition to its meditation feature, Miracle of Mind includes an AI-powered function that delivers personalized wisdom and insights drawn from Sadhguru’s extensive archive. The app covers a broad range of topics, further enhancing its appeal to users seeking guidance in various aspects of life.
Sadhguru himself took to social media to address the app’s launch, sharing a powerful message about the importance of mental health. He noted, “It is expected that by 2050, about 30-33% of the world’s population would be mentally ill. This is because we always think that solutions to our challenges are outside of us. All the solutions are within us, but we have no 'Inward access.' The Miracle of Mind app will teach you how to build this access. Every one of you must invest 7 minutes every day to make this happen for yourselves and for everyone around you. Let’s make it happen. – Sg.”
The app’s success arrived at a crucial moment, as mental health issues continue to rise globally. In India alone, it’s estimated that between 60 to 70 million people suffer from common to severe mental disorders. The country also holds the unfortunate distinction of having the highest number of suicides worldwide. A report from the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) revealed that in 2022, 171,000 people died by suicide in India, marking the highest suicide rate ever recorded in the country—12.4 per 100,000 people.
As the global demand for mental wellness solutions rises, the Miracle of Mind app stands as a timely and innovative response, offering people a tool to cultivate inner peace and emotional balance in an increasingly stressed world.
