Thank You for Making History with SEMA Lab
We just wrapped up the world’s first tFUS-enhanced 10-day silent meditation retreat at the serene Diamond Mountain Retreat Center! The early feedback has been incredible—many participants found it deeply impactful for their practice. We’re excited to dive into the data and see what insights emerge.
A special thank you to Dr. Tucker Peck and Upali for seamlessly integrating our experiment into your retreat. Your collaboration is helping us pioneer a new field of research that will help us understand how mindfulness works and how to help more people access it's benefits.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped us reach our $57,000 crowdfunding goal to support the first-ever ultrasound neuromodulation retreat! Your support made this groundbreaking retreat possible, and we couldn’t have done it without you. As we analyze the data, we’ll develop new hypotheses to test during our next retreat in 2025, led by our very own Shinzen Young. Stay tuned for updates!

Mindfulness has many potential benefits, but it is often difficult to maintain a practice to reach those rewards.At SEMA lab, we propose to biophysically operationalize the measurement of mindful awareness. Then, we hope to clarify, by gold standard clinical criteria, how those skills serve to significantly increase physiological and psycho-social well being.
Our research will give us a better understanding of how mindfulness works and should allow more patients and the general population to access the benefits.
