What a year it’s been. In 2025, All Here continued to push the boundaries of meditation, science, and technology — bringing quantified meditation to more people than ever before.
From the success of the Geneva and Tokyo Quantified Meditation Challenges to powerful new partnerships, research breakthroughs, and a growing global community, this year has been all about momentum, impact, and having a deeper presence.

Geneva & Tokyo: Defining a New Era of Quantified Meditation
2025 marked a major milestone with the world’s first large-scale quantified meditation challenges. The Geneva Quantified Meditation Challenge introduced the world’s first public showcase of Quantified Meditation, followed by the 東京「瞑想の数値化」チャレンジ, which laid the groundwork for the Sport of the Mind — a discipline where inner performance can be observed, trained, and refined.
At the heart of this evolution is QM³ – The Peak of Meditation, our performance metric capturing the deepest continuous three minutes of inner stability and silence within a meditation session. Rather than measuring a fleeting peak, QM³ reflects the ability to reach this summit and remain there, offering a meaningful way to compare depth, consistency, and mastery across practitioners. Just as kickboxing has K-1 and motor racing has Formula 1, meditation now has QM³ — a framework that makes meditation measurable and shareable while preserving the integrity of the inner journey.
These events are powered by the Quantified Meditation System Dashboard, using advanced brain imaging and Dynamic Neuro-Imaging technology to visualise meditation through objective metrics, including the Concentration & Mindfulness Index (CMI) and the Silent Mind Index (SMI).

A Global Community of Practice
Throughout the year, All Here and the World Meditation League strengthened ties with meditation communities worldwide, guiding Quantified Meditation (QM) sessions at Pyramid Valley, S-VYASA University, the Art of Living headquarters in Bengaluru, the Heartfulness headquarters in Hyderabad, and the Brahma Kumaris Global Retreat Centre in Oxford, as well as conducting sessions with Tibetan monks in India および Samatha Trust practitioners in Wales.
We also participated in the Global Conference of Meditation Leaders (GCML) in New Delhi, where the WML announced the world’s first Quantified Meditation Challenge.
Strengthening our partnership with S-VYASA University, co-organizer of GCML, we welcomed Dr. H. R. Nagendra, Chancellor and Dr. N. K. Manjunath, Vice-Chancellor, to the All Here Institute, and engaged in gatherings with the Art of Living, Heartfulness, 公式サイト, Zen 2.0 および Mindful Kamakura.
From Wales to Oxford, and from India to Japan, practitioners came together to explore deeper heightened states and build a shared culture of meaningful, measurable meditation practice.

Science at the Core: Advancing Evidence-Based Meditation
Science remained at the heart of All Here’s mission, anchored by the continued development and application of our two official measurement frameworks: the Concentration & Mindfulness Index (CMI) and the Silent Mind Index (SMI). Together, these indexes provide a rigorous way to observe, quantify and compare meditative states, from sustained attention and mental quietness to deeper experiences of inner silence, helping bridge subjective experience with objective scientific analysis.
Throughout the year, our teams actively contributed to leading international research forums, including ANT Neuroscience in Berlin, CNS in Boston, TSC 2025 in Barcelona, ISCR in Chapel Hill, ABIM in Champéry , and collaborative spaces dedicated to contemplative science. Academic progress also accelerated, with a PubMed-indexed publication developed in collaboration with EPFL, further reinforcing the credibility and methodological rigour of our approach.
Across these platforms, we continued building bridges between contemplative traditions and neuroscience, shaping a shared understanding of inner silence through objective measurement.

Zenbu Koko: When Meditation Meets Mixed Reality
2025 demonstrated how the alliance of technology and design can offer a modern, accessible pathway to meditation.
In Tokyo, we reached a major milestone with the public unveiling of Zenbu Koko, our innovative Mixed-Reality Meditation Platform.
Developed together with world-renowned architect Kengo Kuma, Zenbu Koko dissolves the boundaries between self and environment through immersive XR technologies, guiding participants through meditative landscapes from serene natural settings to expansive cosmic scenes. Our platform is supported by tools such as Self-Attention Perspective (SAP) and haptic feedback to deepen embodied awareness.
Alongside this, All Here presented its work at Berlin MindXR, where our Tech team showcased the XR Meditation Platform, and engaged with leading researchers in embodied cognition, mental health, and immersive systems.
From Tokyo’s growing enthusiasm to Geneva’s continued testing and refinement, 2025 reaffirmed technology as a powerful ally in making the invisible visible, measurable, and relatable.

Applying Meditation to Everyday Performance
This year marked an important step in strengthening collaborative engagement around meditation, bringing together practitioners, institutions, and applied contexts. Our collaboration with Bilan, centred on the theme of letting go and exploring how meditation supports mental release, emotional balance and presence in high-demand, everyday environments.
Our engagement continued through public gatherings in Lausanne and Paris. All Here joined Heartfulness roundtable sharing science-backed perspectives on meditation, clarity, and inner alignment. In Paris, our collaboration with 公式サイト brought together more than 700 participants for an evening dedicated to meditation and reflection, including a presentation on how meditation shapes brain dynamics and how science can elevate real-world practice.
As we continue developing evidence-based methods that translate inner stability into outer performance, the past year highlighted how quantified meditation can meaningfully support anyone aiming to train their mind with the same intention as their body.

Looking Ahead
As we prepare to celebrate UN World Meditation Day this Sunday 21 December with our community through the launch of All Here Quantified Meditation Society (QMS), we very much look forward to another year of exploration, connection, and growth. Looking ahead to 2026, we are excited about the opportunities to deepen our collective understanding of meditation and to continue bringing communities together around the world in the spirit of awareness and shared discovery.
To everyone who contributed to making 2025 an inspiring and transformative year — thank you. Your commitment, curiosity, and presence continue to shape what All Here can achieve.
Wishing you a peaceful holiday season and a bright start to the year ahead.
