Mettagroup

Secure attachment. Collaborative relationships.
An AI chat and practice system for attachment repair.

The Mettagroup mobile app is built around an AI chat for studying attachment theory: what secure and insecure attachment is, how collaborative, secure-functioning relationships work, and how to practice them. The chat is grounded in the teachings of meditation teacher George Haas, and it sits alongside a library of guided meditations and the calendar of the community he founded.

George has taught meditation for more than 20 years and was authorized to teach by Shinzen Young in 2002. His work brings together classical mindfulness practice and attachment theory, drawing on his collaborations with the late attachment researchers Mary Main and Dr. Daniel P. Brown. The chat draws on his framework and voice to help you think through your own questions about practice, relationships, and the inner life from the point of view of attachment theory. It is an AI assistant, not George himself, and its answers can be incomplete or mistaken — treat them as a starting point for your own reflection.

THE APPROACH
George's teaching follows the three-pillar model of attachment repair described by the late Dr. Daniel P. Brown, and two of those pillars shape the app:
- Guided meditations support the second pillar: developing mentalizing and emotional-regulation skills through practice.
- The AI chat supports the third pillar: learning about collaborative, secure-functioning relationships. The calendar helps you find Mettagroup courses and workshops that continue this learning.
The first pillar — remapping early relational patterns through Ideal Parent Figure work — is the deeper one-to-one work at the center of Mettagroup's live programs.

WHAT'S INSIDE
- AI study chat: ask about attachment theory, secure-functioning relationships, and your own practice, and pick up earlier conversations where you left off.
- Guided audio meditations: a library organized into series such as Always Cool and Always Kind. Save recordings for offline listening and return to the ones that meet you where you are.
- Progress tracking: keep your completed meditations and practice in view as you go.
- Community calendar: browse upcoming sits, talks, workshops, and courses from the Mettagroup community, and sign up for the ones that call to you.

WHO IT'S FOR
Mettagroup is made for adults (18+) who want to understand what secure attachment is and how to earn it if they weren't raised with it — what attachment researchers call earned security. That takes study and steady practice over time, and the app is built to support both. It is offered as an educational and personal-development resource — not a substitute for professional care or for the relationships in your life.

This app is for educational and personal-development purposes only. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical or mental-health condition.

A place to study, to sit, and to keep going.
