From Meditation to Relationships, Family to Environmental Tips, Yoga and Meditation to Travel and Recipes—we cover all the issues and topics that matter with a sense of humor and journalistic integrity—cutting through fads and making fun of spiritual materialism.
Our app is simple: it’s not here to clutter your life, but to help open it up. Most apps we enjoy fill the gaps in our lives—whether in line or in a waiting room, or at a restaurant waiting for a friend or colleague to return. Elephant offers space and inspiration within this busyness, enabling us to return to our basic goodness with knowledge and empathy.

Grateful to have a heart lifting place to be.
Reading elephant journal and wow Way.
Thank you for your kindness. You inspire me.

You dishonor elephants with your dishonesty. How should I trust you with a paid subscription when I read one article and am then told if I sign on I will get 2 more free articles. But upon doing this am immediately begged for money before I am allowed to view even one more. After all the horrific pain and injustice visited upon one of the most intelligent and peaceful creatures of this planet, who have been decimated by man, you my friend choose to use them for profit. And does any of this even go towards their relief, welfare, caring or saving? I see no indication of such. I am truly sorry but you will not have mine until you do something worthy and deserving of it, for them .
Years ago this was a free blog. I understand they need money to run the business but as a cost to those that looks to this company for support and conscientious journalism, this one has really depleted in value. I had hoped that I would discover improvements but app shuts down and company will not refund even if issue was discovered within minutes of purchase. Sadly, eventually it always becomes about making money.
Thank you so much for the grounding and inspiration!
I’ve read elephant journal for over 10 years. I love it here.
This is a really good app. I use the free version, because I am on a fixed income, and can’t afford subscriptions. But, I find the reading limit well, too limited. 2 articles a day, and a weekly reading limit. That’s not good. I would definitely pay for a subscription if I could afford it. But as I said above, I am on a fixed income and that is just not possible. It would be nice if you could find a way to make the app completely free for those of us on a fixed income. It would help a lot. I found some good stuff on it already. I would love to read more. But as it stands, well, I have reached my weekly limit. Still a really good app though.
Que ases
Subscribed to them for years…recently went Onto the app to read an article, and got a pop up saying I’ve reached my weekly limit of free articles (I literally haven’t read one on EJ in months) and gave me options to pay?!?! I don’t understand? Are there no free articles any longer? Please fix this.
A amazing resource of ancestral/archetypal information. Both creative, healing and inspiring.
