Key takeaways
- $499 a year for the membership. The monthly price isn't shown on the official page.
- No free trial: a 15-day money-back guarantee instead, for purchases on mindvalley.com.
- Not included: Mastery and certification programs, partner programs and Mindvalley U tickets.
- Mixed reputation: 4.3 stars on Trustpilot, but critics flag heavy advertising and renewal charges.
Worth it if you…
- will do a 20-minute lesson most days for weeks
- want to try many topics: mind, body, career, relationships
- like a community and cohort start dates
- pay yearly and use it all year
Skip it if you…
- want one topic in depth: one book or course is cheaper
- dislike spiritual or abstract content in some courses
- tend to forget subscriptions you've stopped using
- hope for one-on-one coaching: access to teachers is limited
How much is a Mindvalley membership?
The official page shows one price: $499 a year, which it presents as $41.50 a month. A monthly plan is offered too, but its price only appears at checkout; the official page says the yearly plan saves $689, which implies about $99 a month (a January 2026 review reported $59). VAT may be added depending on where you live.

Mindvalley discounts and promo codes are widely advertised, often in affiliate videos. We don't have a code and don't link to one; the yearly plan is the lowest official price we could see.
What you get: Mindvalley courses and the app
The membership unlocks more than 110 video courses, which Mindvalley calls Quests, plus over 1,000 guided meditations and sounds, an AI-guided curriculum and a private community. Most Quests run 30 to 50 days with lessons of about 20 minutes a day, and many start on fixed dates with a cohort.

One thing to keep in mind: many Mindvalley reviews online carry affiliate links or discount codes. We don't, and no one pays us for this page.
