OMMM: Our Museum Mindfulness Meditation Podcast Full Trailer -- Season 1 Coming Soon!
Getty Museum introduces "Ohm," a first‑of‑its‑kind video‑podcast that fuses art history with guided mindfulness meditation. Hosted by veteran meditation practitioner and museum educator Leilet Sedoyan, the series will debut on YouTube and major podcast platforms. Each weekly episode selects a single work from the Getty collection, begins with a brief breathing exercise, then provides historical context before leading listeners through a meditation inspired by the piece. Examples include visualizing the blue light of Edvard Munch’s coastal scenes or using Van Gogh’s Irises to heighten sensory awareness. The trailer highlights bonus conversations with specialists covering topics such as Martian cloud research, painting conservation, Zen cleaning habits, and mountain climbing, extending the experience beyond the core art‑meditation format. By bringing museum‑based mindfulness to homes, Ohm expands Getty’s educational reach, taps into the growing wellness market, and positions the institution as an innovator in cultural engagement.
