Contemplative practice, reimagined

Ancient wisdom.
Modern guidance.

A contemplative practice shaped by humanity's deepest thinkers—Stoic, Buddhist, Existentialist, and dozens more. Each session drawn from curated sources, adapted to your time and depth.

Today's guidance

The Discipline of Response

Learn to separate events from judgments, and practice the space between stimulus and response.

Beyond generic mindfulness

This isn't ambient noise with a timer.

Thira is structured guidance drawn from thousands of years of philosophical tradition. Each session is crafted from curated sources—not scripted by content teams chasing trends.

You bring the question. We bring the world's answers.

Simple but deep

How it works

1

Choose what matters to you

Work, relationships, meaning, anxiety, loss—whatever's on your mind. Start with what's real.

2

Explore through different lenses

The Stoics see it one way. The Buddhists another. Existentialists, Taoists, and more offer their own paths.

3

Practice daily, at your pace

10 minutes or 60. Two weeks or twelve. Thira adapts the journey to fit your life.

Depth without the PhD

Thousands of years. One daily practice.

From Stoicism to Zen, these traditions have explored the questions you're asking now. Thira distills their insights into guided daily practice—no prior knowledge required.
