For the anxious mind
The two a.m. spiral. The tight chest. The thoughts that will not sit down. People have carried an anxious mind for as long as there have been minds — and for sixty years, Sri Swami Jyotirmayananda has taught how it settles. Begin with a short guide you can read tonight.
Rather begin with a practice? Start the first week.
Drawn from Swamiji's recorded teachings on the anxious mind. Read it in an evening. Then one recorded teaching each month by email — nothing else. You are not the storm; twelve thousand hours of teaching stand behind that sentence.
Free, always. Unsubscribe any time. We will never sell your address.
Not a program, not a plan, not thirty days of anything. One quiet guide, written to be read in a single evening — and to leave you with one thing to actually do.
It starts where you are: the looping thoughts, the dread with no address, the mind that treats rest as an emergency. Named plainly, without a diagnosis and without a sales pitch.
The heart of the guide: a way of standing back from the storm of the mind that teachers in Swamiji’s tradition have handed down for centuries — told here in plain words, for a first reading.
A single, simple practice you can try tonight — no experience, no equipment, no app. A few unhurried minutes, and a place to sit with your own mind.

The guide is the porch. Behind it stands Sri Swami Jyotirmayananda — ninety-five years old and still teaching — and six decades of recorded lectures, kept freely open by the Foundation.
Every evening at 7:30 PM Eastern, one lecture from the archive premieres on YouTube — a shared watch of a recorded teaching, with others in the chat, at an unhurried pace.
