DailyOM is an American online publication and education platform focused on health, spirituality, and other topics.[2] It was founded by writer Madisyn Taylor and multimedia artist Scott Blum in 2004[3][4] and is based in Santa Barbara, California.[1]
Before founding DailyOM, Taylor owned an aromatherapy product company.[5] Blum had worked as a software developer for Capcom, Sega, Taito,[6] and Starwave. He was also one of the producers of the multimedia project Peter Gabriel: Eve.[7] He established iMusic before its eventual sale to Apple.[8][9]
In 2008, DailyOM published Madisyn Taylor's first book, DailyOM: Inspirational Thoughts for a Happy, Healthy, and Fulfilling Day.[10]

Taylor also produced and recorded the meditation album Meditation for the Highly Sensitive Person, which was released under the DailyOM label in 2015.[13] The album reached #1 on Billboard's New Age Albums chart.[14] Taylor was also interviewed for the 2015 documentary film Sensitive: The Untold Story, which was based on Elaine Aron's research.[15] She went on to publish the book Unmedicated: The Four Pillars of Natural Wellness in 2018.[16]
