From the world-renowned Monroe Institute, access profound states of expanded awareness normally attained after years of dedicated practice to foster greater meaning and purpose, relieve stress, improve sleep, and release unwanted patterns. The guided meditations in Expand feature Monroe Sound Science, our proprietary audio technology that uses targeted soundwave patterns to facilitate unique states of consciousness. Using Expand, you can access the profound wisdom and joy buried deep within your conscious and subconscious minds.
Expand features 100+ guided meditations, along with multi-day mini-courses, guided reflection and journaling, and custom-generated soundscapes that target specific brainwave states. Far from typical meditations that focus on simply clearing your mind of thoughts, Expand meditations encourage active imagination and perception to achieve specific results. Meditation topics include:
- Relaxation & Healing
- Joy & Meaning
- Insight and Intuition
- Sleep & Dreaming
- Nurturing Healthy Relationships
- Creativity & Manifestation
- Beyond the Physical
Expand was developed by the Monroe Institute, the world’s foremost center for the study and practice of expanded consciousness. Monroe is a 501(c)(3) non-profit founded in the early 1970s as a research and educational organization. In addition to Expand, Monroe offers a wide variety of experiential retreats virtually, on our 300-acre Virginia campus, and in over a dozen countries worldwide.

This is truly an amazing app. There is nothing in the App Store that comes even close to this latest Monroe Institute product. For a small monthly fee I have access to very powerful meditations that keep transforming my life beyond belief. I’ve been using many of the meditations daily since summer 2021. I’m still amazed by what they bring to my life. I believe this is the Institute’s best ever offering. There are new meditations that were previously not available to purchase on CDs or downloads. And some of the old favourites are refreshed and improved. Excellent sound quality, rock solid performance and out of this world content. A treasure of a cosmic scale. Most highly recommended!
Broken app since update

Great app that I use daily and every evening but today’s update has broken things and nothing is loading. Please fix this
Nice App, but a few niggles.
Charlie Knoll
This is a nice app, nicely designed and presented. The meditations on offer are generally good, a few very good. So far, so good. So for the niggles. There are not really enough meditations in the library to keep you regularly interested. In the U.K. the monthly fee is just over £10 - that’s a lot for an app, especially one with a limited library. My favourite category, is ‘Beyond the physical’ but there are just 14 mediations in the section. They are great, just not enough of them. I hope the library will be ‘expanded’ as we go.
Your mileage may vary.

The app is Quite slick, but the meditations are a very mixed bag. There are a few good ones, but many are trite, and not particularly interesting or useful. You can find much more powerful content at Learning Strategies. The Hemi-Sync sound technology promises a lot, but doesn’t really deliver. Others, such as Kelly Howell, do it much better. On the other hand, the app is convenient to use, and the subscription cost is relatively low so three stars seems about right.
Expanded awareness is a global journey—and now, so is Expand.
