You may have heard of all the benefits of meditation but might not know how to actually do the exercises. The Headspace:Meditation app explains and helps you explore the benefits of both guided and unguided meditation while contributing to your overall goal of mindfulness.
Backed by celebrities such as Kobe Bryant and Will Smith, Headspace: Meditation motivates many people towards hard work and success. Aside from its celebrity notoriety, Headspace also won the editor’s choice award in the Apple app store. When you download, you are given ten free sessions.
“The Headspace:Meditation app explains and helps you explore the benefits of both guided and unguided meditation while contributing to your overall goal of mindfulness.”
Headspace begins the ten free sessions with an introduction that those familiar and unfamiliar with meditation can appreciate. The ‘Basics’ component takes you through a simple journey to prepare you for the upcoming sessions in just a few minutes.
One of the benefits of a Headspace subscription is the versatility of enjoying its benefits wherever you are and whenever you can. As opposed to therapy sessions that require you to conform to their time constraints, Headspace allows you to set your own schedule. You can also tailor the Headspace app to your particular lifestyle by choosing sessions that reflect your mood and activities.
You can opt to share your journey with any of the 15 million other subscribers at any point. This function can help you stay accountable and connect you with new people.

I really enjoy this app, it helps with relaxing and releases stress that I didn't even realize I had. Easy to use features that are dependable. The animation is well put together on this app as well.
Easy to navigate

It is not that often you download and use an app where you say “damn, whoever created this was really considering the users needs”. With that said, it is really user friendly which allows you to navigate it easy. In addition, meditation is something I really wanted to get into for 2020. One of my friends who has been meditating for years recommended this app to me… and its really helpful. So that tells you that it doesn’t matter the level of experience in meditation.
You can improve in many levels of your life such as stress, anxiety and personal growth – just to name a few. It allows you to look deep.
The app voices are all somewhat similar. Maybe changing that up will be better.

Headspace is the perfect app for meditating and relieving stress. I have had anxiety for years, and haven’t yet found an app as good as this for curing it. The app gives you daily meditation sessions, and there are cool cartoon characters that guide you through everything. They also have exercises to keep you healthy mentally and physically. The night meditation exercise for sleeping are great!
Everything in this app is great. It has the perfect library of meditations to choose from. There are great nighttime meditation sessions to help you sleep better. And best of all, it’s all tailored to you.
There are no cons with this app.

I love the fact that this app uses cartoon characters - totally counter intuitive as its not really the vibe that you'd think to get you in a peaceful state of mind - but it works!! The fact that it's broken down into courses is also something that I personally love - it feels really thought out and professional. Generally, so far it's really helping my state of mind. I'd love it to be totally free with no extras / upgrades / need to pay - but it feels like it's worth the money and in life I guess the best things aren't always free!
The features are awesome!
It costs if you want to maximise the app!

Before you get to use this amazing app, it asks you questions, general questions about yourself so that it is easier to direct you in activities that suit you well. It has guided and unguided meditation. The app is also great for beginners who know nothing about meditation. The app has free sessions for a start too before you subscribe. I loved the fact that the app is also associated with Will Smith, he is my favorite actor.
It's easy to use

I just used the ten free sessions and I can honestly say that this app is something else. The meditation sessions were amazing and even more advanced ways to clear your mind. Worth your time!

I think the creators of the app really made it a point to take the users into great consideration. First of all you need to answer a few questions so the app can tailor activities to your needs, which is great. The activities and features are all useful, not just there for show. They are also quite enjoyable and engaging.
One thing that really stood out for me was how before I began my first meditation, I was asked as to how much experience I have with meditation (none of the apps I have used before ever asked that) Just because I wanted to start from the lowest point and build up, I opted in for the meditation for total beginners. I was not disappointed. I found it easy to follow and helpful. There are so many avenues of improvement to choose from; stress and anxiety, personal growth, kids and parenting, physical health etc. There really is something for everyone.
The apps needs more diversity in when it comes to the narrator voice. Most features are locked off unless you pay for an upgrade. Before I use an app, I always check its reviews. Most users seemed to have a problem with cancellation after subscribing so that put me off the idea of paying for a subscription myself.

Headspace is a great app! It is great for learning how to meditate during the day and just to get started with meditating . It teaches you how to meditate during very busy times and I hope I keep using it.

Overall Comment
This app is really awesome; only downside is it is expensive so you have to be the type to meditate and actually use it. But if you do, its life changing. It's definitely worth using the ten free sessions and if you're like me you'll find yourself hooked.
Pros
Love the guided meditations. Life changing stuff.
Cons
It's expensive
