10 Mindfulness Apps to Improve Your Life Right Now
When was the last time you felt fully immersed in the present moment? If you are having trouble pinpointing a time, you’re not alone. Mindfulness can be a transformative practice that helps you learn to sit with your thoughts and focus fully on the here and now. Mindfulness has become such a popular practice that there are even dozens of mindfulness apps available to help you get started. But what is mindfulness, anyway?
When was the last time you felt fully immersed in the present moment? If you are having trouble pinpointing a time, you’re not alone. Mindfulness can be a transformative practice that helps you learn to sit with your thoughts and focus fully on the here and now. Mindfulness has become such a popular practice that there are even dozens of mindfulness apps available to help you get started. But what is mindfulness, anyway?
According to the Mayo Clinic, “Mindfulness is the act of being intensely aware of what you're sensing and feeling at every moment — without interpretation or judgment.”
Mindfulness is a practice, not a one-off event, so it’s important to actually put in the time to practice this skill. However, you don’t have to practice mindfulness for a long time before you can see the effects. In one recent study, people who had practiced mindfulness for just 100 minutes reported feeling more positive emotions and less troubled by the responsibilities of their lives. Even a little bit at a time can help you feel more present and grounded.
If you’re a mindfulness novice, jumping in without a little guidance may seem way above your head. After all, it’s not easy to go from interpreting and judging our thoughts to simply noticing them and letting them pass by. But there’s no need to give up completely! No matter what level you’re at there are mindfulness apps & tools that can help you on your journey to become more mindful.
It might seem counter intuitive to suggest seeking mindfulness through your phone, a device that is typically labeled a distraction. However, let’s be real: your phone is probably with you the majority of the time. Mindfulness support can be literally in your pocket at all times!
Not all mindfulness apps were created equal. The boom in the wellness industry in the last few years has given rise to practices like meditation, mindfulness, self-care becoming mainstream. This means that there are tons of apps to sift through, even if you don’t know what you’re looking for or what will be helpful to you.
Here are 10 mindfulness apps to try in your wellness practice:
Insight Timer
Insight Timer is a free mindfulness app that’s available on both iOS and Android. It bills itself as the world’s largest free library of guided meditations, and there are over 28,000 options for you to choose from. They have meditations for everything under the sun, as well as music tracks and ambient sounds that can be used for focus or help with sleep. There’s a timer so you can customize a mindfulness session that fits in your schedule. Insight Timer also offers a free course for beginners to teach you how to meditate in just 7 days. You can track your progress with charts in the app, and the meditations are available in over 30 languages. Another feature of Insight Timer is the community - there are discussion groups and you can see how many people in the world are using the app with you.
Calm
The Calm mindfulness app seeks to live up to its name right from when you open it up! You’ll be greeted with nature sounds to help get you in the mindset of mindfulness. They offer a variety of guided meditations, breathing exercises, and sleep stories, which you can listen to as you fall asleep. They even have a section specifically dedicated to teaching kids mindfulness. You can access some of the content with the free plan, but for newly added content, there is a subscription fee of $60 per year. They do have the option for a lifetime membership at $400. You can download Calm on iOS or Android.
Headspace
Headspace is another popular mindfulness app that is available on iOS and Android. They compare their app to a gym membership, but for your mind. With just a few minutes a day on their app, you can learn how to meditate. They offer meditations of various lengths to fit whatever time frame you have available, and they have what they call “SOS” meditations to help during a crisis. Plus, the animation style of the app is very cute! This app is not free, but they do have a 7 day free trial period if you want to try it out first. After 7 days, it costs $12.99 a month or you can pay for the full year for $95.88.
Buddhify
Buddhify is the app for meditation on the go. In their catalog they have over 200 guided meditations to choose from that vary in their focus! Whether you’re trying to manage anxiety, stress, improve your sleep, deal with pain or difficult emotions, Buddify has a guided meditation for you. And because they’re all about working mindfulness into your unique life, you can find exercises for whatever situation you’re in–whether you’re at work, traveling, browsing online, eating lunch, etc. And no need to stick with just one guide! Buddhify offers a variety of experienced teachers so you can choose the one that’s right for you. The basic app costs $4.99, and there is an option to enroll in a membership to deepen your practice. Buddhify is available for iOS as well as Android.
Aura
Available on iOS and Android, Aura has a ton of wellness content. They offer meditations in varying lengths (including a lot of 3 minute ‘micro-meditations’ for people who don’t like sitting still!), nature sounds you can play as white noise, recorded short stories, life coaching, music, and a gratitude journal. You can advance to different levels as you meditate more, which gives the app a game-like quality. There is also a premium version with more features available.
Ten Percent Happier
The aim of the Ten Percent Happier mindfulness app is to help you learn to meditate, sleep better, and build a mindfulness practice bit by bit. It has a library of 500+ guided meditations for you to choose from that vary in topic from anxiety, to parenting, to improving your focus. Plusm they release new content weekly so you don’t have to build your habit off of recycling the same old materials. In order to get access to the library of 500+ meditations, you do need to purchase a yearly subscription ($99/year)–but they do have a free version with a more limited selection you can try out to see if you like it! This app is available for both iOS and Android.
Mindfulness Daily
The creators of Mindfulness Daily developed their mindfulness app and continue to provide new content by working directly with scientists, physicians, and trainers. They offer a Mindful Daily Routine option which offers 3 meditation breaks a day to keep you on track. This app is especially helpful to those looking to reduce stress or improve their sleep. While this app is only available in iOS for now, they do have an Android beta testing program in the works.
Smiling Mind
The Smiling Mind mindfulness app is broken down into categories based on age. They have specific mindfulness programs for adults, children, classrooms, and workspaces, and they offer their programs in multiple languages. The app was developed by psychologists and educators to help teach mindfulness techniques in just 10 minutes a day. This app is completely free to use for iOS and Android.
Stop, Breathe, and Think
Stop, Breathe and Think is all about using meditation and mindfulness to boost your confidence and increase your emotional strength. It’s all in their name really–they want you to STOP: stop what you’re doing and check in with your surroundings + feelings; BREATHE: establish a mindful breathing practice to help you create space between your thoughts or emotions and your reactions; and THINK: broaden your perspective. Their library of guided meditations will walk you through this process no matter what topic you choose to focus on. The app is available for free for iOS and Android.
Simple Habit
Simple Habit has an enormous library of meditations: 2,000+!! Their goal is to get you to work 5 minutes of mindfulness into your daily routine. So they have expert teachers who guide you through 5 minute mindfulness sessions, and a Mindful Minutes tracker that can help you keep a log of your progress. The basic app is free, but there is a premium subscription plans you can opt into if you want to level up your practice, which is purchased through either a yearly ($95.99) or monthly ($11.99) payment. It’s available for iOS and Android.
Everyone has their own preferences, and luckily, there are dozens of mindfulness apps available for smartphones, so chances are you can find something that works for you. If you try an app that doesn’t make you want to practice mindfulness, there’s no harm in moving on to the next one! Eventually, you will find one that fits your lifestyle.
