Gaia brings you a new perspective on news.

What is Gaia?

Gaia is a mission-driven community that empowers the global evolution of consciousness. Our ad-free streaming videos help people explore the limits of our human potential, connect to ourselves, each other, and the universe in new ways, and challenge assumptions that keep us from growing.

Why do I get to watch this for free?

Gaia believes that our content has the potential to change lives. And, a friend of yours does too. Or at least, they thought you specifically would find something interesting about this exact video. Once you’ve seen it, we hope that you’ll consider subscribing some day to watch more like it.

Is it really free to watch this video?

Yes, it is really free to watch this video. You will not have to create an account, start a free trial, or enter any payment info whatsoever.

Ok so how does it work then?

Once you enter your email above, we’ll email you a link. Once you click on it, like renting a video on other video services, you’ll have a limited time window in which you can watch the video. For free. All of it.

Just so you know…

Policies for specific videos change from time to time, and in rare cases, a video you’ve gotten a link for can become no longer “shareable” during your limited time window. When this occurs, the full video will be replaced with a trailer video on your link.

The fine print

You get a free video, we get your email. We’ll use it, responsibly, to send you exciting (we’re excited, anyways) content promotions and information about who we are. You can unsubscribe at any time via in link in any of our emails. Gaia does not and will never sell your email.
