  • Soma Meditation is a modern meditation platform founded by Sam Wysock-Wright. It blends ancient Vedic meditation practices with neuroscience-informed tools to support nervous system recovery, stress relief, and emotional resilience.

    The platform includes two main components:

    • A live course where users are taught Vedic meditation in small groups

    • The Soma App, which offers guided meditations, movement, breathwork, and manifestation tools

    Soma is designed to be approachable for beginners and particularly supportive for those recovering from burnout, chronic stress, or fatigue-related illness.

    • The core practice is Vedic meditation, taught in a four-part course with a personalised mantra

    • Once trained, users practise twice a day for 20 minutes, using the technique to access deep rest and calm

    • The Soma App provides:

      • A 15-part video meditation course

      • A 12-week manifestation programme

      • Daily affirmation and breathwork sessions

      • Movement practices including Pilates and yoga

      • Live group meditation sessions

    • Courses are available in person (e.g. in Lisbon) or online

    • App subscriptions are available monthly, annually, or as a one-time lifetime purchase

    • Sam developed Soma after recovering from chronic fatigue syndrome, and the method is shaped by his lived experience

    • Vedic meditation does not involve focus or breath control, making it accessible for people with fatigue or brain fog

    • The app integrates mindset, movement, and rest tools in one place, which can help users avoid overwhelm

    • You don’t need to do the live course to benefit from the app, but it may enhance your practice

    • Another credited the app for helping them meditate twice a day, aiding recovery from chronic illness, improving sleep, and supporting major life decisions—while praising Sam’s gentle teaching and the app’s feature variety (https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/soma-wellness-meditation/id6479175870)

    • A user highlighted how Sam’s passion and storytelling “shine through,” helping them establish regular meditation; they noticed improved mood, better sleep, and more presence in family life (https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/soma-wellness-meditation/id6479175870)
