We know: meditating is hard. Or at least it can seem that way when you’re first trying it. But you’ll be surprised how easy the Headspace app makes it to get started and create some momentum.
The proven health benefits of regular meditation—like lower blood pressure, better mood, better sleep, less anxiety, a healthier weight, increased happiness—are hard to pass up. Yet, many of us struggle to find the time, discipline and patience to adopt a meditation practice. Which is why we highly recommend the Headspace app.
Why we love it:
All Headspace meditations can be completed in just 10 minutes, plus you get to choose your area of interest such as anxiety, performance, focus, sleep, kid’s health, pregnancy and more.
