The “Anti-Meditation” Meditation
We get it – meditation doesn’t work for everyone. Being told to “be calm” doesn’t cut it. You can’t feel calm until you first feel safe.
CalmConnect is the solution to calming your body and mind in minutes. CalmConnect engages you visually, physically, mentally, auditorily, and cognitively SO completely that your mind doesn’t have to work to find CALM – CalmConnect brings CALM to you. Simply follow along with the people on the screen.
That’s it – and it really works.
CalmConnect is used in thousands of homes, clinics, and schools around the world, and now available to Boulder Crest participants, helping you feel present, safe, and calm.
You’ve dedicated your lives to making others feel safe – now it’s your turn.

One patient was hit in the head with shrapnel in Afghanistan in 2004 and has a history of PTSD/anxiety, causing severe insomnia. Since using CalmConnect, he is able to get to sleep faster and get better sleep. He told me that this has been the greatest help with his sleep, far and above any drugs or meditation.
CalmConnect Sample Sequence: Restore One
What is CalmConnect?
- CalmConnect is an easy-to-use program that has proven successful for thousands of people of all ages and abilities in addressing anxiety, depression, and trauma, whether struggling with self-regulation because of PTSD, illness, or other challenges.
- This scientifically based, patented social engagement program calms the nervous system, shifting users from “fight or flight” to a more regulated state as it builds social connectedness.
- As you mirror the movements of the people on the screen (see sample video), the smiles and kind faces (the people in CalmConnect look like your neighbors, friends, family members, and support networks) connect and link us to a larger community, providing safety and affiliation – leading to a calm nervous system.
How to Use CalmConnect?
- Choose a sequence (there are 29 three to five-minute videos) and mirror those on the screen. It’s not about imitating the movements perfectly – but engaging in a manner that feels authentic to you. That might just mean watching and listening to the music.
- CalmConnect works the same if you are able-bodied or challenged with mobility issues(loss of limb, paralysis, etc.). Simply engage in a manner that works for you and feels good. The only way CalmConnect doesn’t work is if you don’t use it.
