Reviews: What People Think About The Way: Guided Meditation
Marcus Bejn
Rating: 5/5
I have come to absolutely love this app. Coming from breath-based practices like Vipassana and focused attention traditions such as Samatha meditation, I was exploring zen meditation and discovered The Way. What immediately struck me was how beautifully stripped down it is - offering a simple yet deeply focused path to practice without any distractions or unnecessary bells and whistles.
The kindness with which Shukman approaches the guided meditations is genuinely palpable. There's an authentic warmth and wisdom in his voice that creates a safe, welcoming space for practice. I was so impressed that after trying it myself, I recommended it to my fiancé who has been interested in meditation but never found an approach that resonated with her. This was the first path that truly clicked for her, which speaks volumes about the app's accessibility and gentle approach.
The technical quality is excellent - both audio and video are crisp and high-quality, and the app runs smoothly without any glitches or crashes. It's clear that care has been taken in every aspect of the development.
For anyone curious about zen meditation or looking for a no-frills, authentic practice companion, I can't recommend The Way highly enough. It's become an essential part of my daily routine.

I tried a lot of varying forms of meditation from in person TM, to Headspace, to the multitude of teachers and options on Waking Up. While I have had significant moments in each and every one of them still the most significant was an awakening I experienced after practicing Henry’s Koan series on Waking Up. When I saw he had his own app I was hesitant at first because I was not enthusiastic about “another” meditation being offered on the market but I gave it a go and it has been the greatest experience with mindfulness and meditation for me to date. I highly recommend anyone from beginner to a frequent meditator to try this app and in the order it is presented, it is truly impactful. While I have fundamental disagreements over approaches presented by other teachers particularly Sam Harris’ teachings and the way his app is presented, I have nothing but deep respect and love for Henry and what he has given here.

This is not your standard meditation app. It’s a resource that takes some of the deepest insights from the Zen Buddhist tradition and offers them in the most accessible format that has ever been devised. Henry is a world-class teacher that I had the great fortune to learn from at an in-person retreat, and having his teaching available in daily sessions that are easy to fit into my schedule (there are 10, 15, 30 min options for every session) is awesome.
What I like the most about the app is how they’ve totally removed “decision fatigue”. You do not have to choose which meditation or talk to select — there is a single path. You can revisit previous sessions if you want, but future sessions are unlocked only as you progress along. It’s like a real retreat, you show up and simply allow yourself to be guided along by the dharma.
