What are Groups on Insight Timer and how do I use them?
A Group is a space within Insight Timer where you can connect with other community members by posting, chatting, recommending content, and meditating together in real time. It's a central place to build community around shared interests and practices.
Two types of Groups
Insight Timer offers two different group models to suit different community needs:
- Public Groups — Anyone on Insight Timer can find and join the group without approval. Public groups are great for open communities around meditation, mindfulness, yoga, breathwork, or other shared interests.
- Private Groups — Users must be approved by the group admin before they can join. Private groups work well for closed communities, study groups, or circles where you want to control membership.
Create or join a Group
You can create your own Group based on your interests, or join existing ones that match your practice and community values. Whether you're interested in meditation, sleep practices, yoga, or anything else, there's likely a group waiting for you.
