ABOUT
“Let the science support you. Let the stillness speak.”
Our Mission
To help you quiet your mind,
A quiet mind is where peace begins.
Our Vision
Through grounded, accessible practices like meditation, breathwork, and mindful movement, we invite everyone—from skeptics to seekers—to discover their own path to well-being, purpose, and inner peace. We believe that when one person finds peace within, this peace ripples outward—into families, communities, and the world.
Come for the Calm. Stay for the Mystery. Or Not. That’s Cool Too.
We’re here for your nervous system — to mend it and help it sing. If you have no interest in a clearer mind, magnified healing powers, more natural energy, sharper focus, feeling younger, or being more comfortable in your skin, this site may not be for you.
Meditation on its own is powerful. The other topics and practices here are meant to help you truly excel.
Maybe you’re a regular person getting by just fine — other than the high stress and somewhat chaotic pace of life.
Some of us haven’t always had it so good.
Whether you call your higher power Source, Spirit, the Universe, Nature, Mother Nature, Father, Allah, The Divine, Buddha, Babaji, the Holy Ghost, God or anything else — you're welcome here. No higher power?
Welcome nonetheless. Be at ease. Stick around. Here we focus on the love and not the philosophy.
Full disclosure: On this site, you’ll come across practices with ancient roots, spiritual symbolism, and meanings that echo across millennia.
We won’t ask you to believe anything. But we won’t pretend those stories don’t exist either.
For many, they’re part of the journey. For others, they’re just poetry.
Some call meditation a health practice. Others, a path to awakening. We say: walk your path. It’s your journey.
Let the science support you. Let the stillness speak. If it leads you to something spiritual, may it bring peace. If it leads to better sleep and less stress, that’s peace, too — and deeply useful.
What can ten minutes of meditation each day do for me? Embrace meditation and you can transform your life.
Our hope is to help you get to joyful stillness — if that’s what you’re looking for.
Call me Marcus.
My story is a quiet one, not so different from countless others. For some of us, finding peace meant a turning point — a new way of living after years of battle, endless anxiety and inner turmoil maybe mixed with addiction. For many of us finding something like real peace of mind was a precious gift. And it only multiplies as you spread it around.
But you don’t need to have had any sort of dramatic transformation, a “spiritual awakening” or a “dark night of the soul” to belong here. This place is about healing and thriving from wherever you're at.
Whether you’re stepping out of a difficult season or simply looking for more calm, clarity, and balance, there are pathways to peace for you here.
The Site: marcusplum.com
That spirit of quiet beginnings is carried in the name as marcusplum.com is a nod to where the journey started and how it continues. My dad dubbed me “Marcus” before I can remember…siblings followed suit…then extended family…and today most people I know call me Marcus. “Plum” is a nickname which shortens our family name since evidently it's tricky in English.
The site marcusplum.com began as a portfolio site for the nature photography I found mindful times in while first stepping into recovery. The site has since grown into a portal for meditation and mindful practices. We kept the name as a reminder of the journey.
