This community is about mindfulness, which the public description defines as awareness of one's internal states and surroundings. People come here to discuss mindfulness directly and meaningfully. The rules ask that all content pertain to mindfulness and that members treat each other with respect while building a positive and helpful community.
The rule named "Self-Promotion, Sales and Recruitment" is the one that will make or break you. It prohibits posting links in comments or DMs that advertise or solicit sales of books, podcasts, YouTube videos, apps, and more. The rule named "Content must be relevant to Mindfulness" means anything off-topic or low-effort gets removed. The rule named "Surveys" requires you to contact moderators through Modmail before posting any survey. The rule named "ChatGPT and AI Content" gives moderators discretion to remove AI-generated content. The rule named "Repetitive Posting" means you should search before posting to avoid covering ground someone just covered.
A good post here is a genuine, thoughtful contribution about mindfulness practice, experience, or a question rooted in awareness of internal states and surroundings. You could share a personal reflection on your mindfulness journey, ask a sincere question about a technique, or offer a well-reasoned perspective on cultivating awareness. If you are a founder, the only safe move is to participate as a human being interested in the topic, not as someone with a product. Share ideas and experiences in the post body without linking to anything you sell. If you have a survey, message the moderators through Modmail first and wait for approval.
Avoid any form of promotion. The rule named "Self-Promotion, Sales and Recruitment" bans posting links in comments or DMs that advertise or solicit sales of books, podcasts, YouTube videos, apps, and other products. Avoid posting surveys without first getting permission from moderators through Modmail. Avoid low-effort content, memes, and posts without context, since the rule named "Content must be relevant to Mindfulness" calls those out. Avoid repetitive posts by searching first. Avoid AI-generated content, since moderators may remove it. Avoid anything from disreputable sources or claims poorly regarded by the academic community under the rule named "Misleading Content". Avoid NSFW or unsafe content of any kind.
