The American Meditation Institute is a wellness organization focused on teaching and practicing Yoga Science as a holistic approach to mind/body medicine. Based in Averill Park, New York, it emphasizes meditation, gentle yoga, nutrition, breathing exercises, and communal support as core practices intended to enhance physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. The institute positions itself as an educational resource for both the general public and healthcare professionals, aiming to empower individuals to recognize their potential and cultivate disciplined attention to thought and daily experience.

Founded in July 1996 by Leonard Perlmutter and Jenness Cortez Perlmutter, the institute articulates a mission centered on personal growth, ethical values, and the integration of these values into daily life through regular practice. Its activities are framed within the wellness and fitness services industry, with a focus on providing guidance that aligns with diverse spiritual traditions. A recent development noted is the launch of a free screening event related to the film "Peaceful Warrior" and a discussion on using conscience as a guide for life.
