The Best App for Meditation: Insight Timer

After many hours of trying all the new meditation apps, we’re convinced that Insight Timer is by far the best. It has the world's largest free library of more than 130k guided meditations, 14k teachers & the world's most loved meditation Timer. Search by function (sleep, abundance, anxiety, relationships, etc.), teacher (Ram Dass, Sadghuru, Tara Brach and more), time, talks or guided meditations to find what’s right for you in each moment. The app is designed to track your personal progress, emotional state, and helps create consistency in your practice. Connect to designated meditation groups as you wish to find support from their robust community. Start with 10-15 minutes a day and see how you much of a difference you feel after the first 30 days.

 

The Best App for focus and sleep: Brain.fm

Brain.fm uses neuroscience to develop functional music directly optimized for its effects on our behavior. They have created a proprietary technology whose goal is to help you achieve desired mental states such as focus or sleep in under 10 minutes. Brain.fm has always been a science-first company. By working with experts in the field–neuroscientists and psychologists–they have a unique ability to develop ideas, run experiments, and continually improve their music for optimzal results. Everything is tested rigorously to substantiate their claims and you will truly feel a difference in very little time.
