Do you meditate? Which apps do you use?

I tried getting into meditation a few times, with Headspace and Petit Bambou, but never managed to form a sticking habit. Every time I'm super motivated at the beginning, do it every day for 2 weeks, but then life happens and I end up forgetting completely. I had the same experience with running for years, and I've recently managed to finally make it a habit, so I know all hope is not lost. I'll try again in a few weeks!

I use Oak, two 30-minute session per day.

I just sleep. That works.

I use Calm, it is perfect for my needs because I only use the "Timed Meditation". I don't like someone talking while I am trying to focus.

I use Oak by the one and only @kevinrose, completely free to use, great content, pleasant and easy-to-navigate UI, and features such as streaks to keep you engaged and committed! Personally I go with the Mindful meditation for 10 minutes every morning to get my day started off right, but sometimes I'll play the Relaxing sounds or the Box breathing exercise depending on the circumstances 🙌

I use Balance, https://www.producthunt.com/post... I just crossed the 32 day streak.

I use the Bible app, YouVersion. I tend to meditate on reading plans, learning how to just get rid of my own thought and filling myself with what I believe the Word of God says.

I use habitX

But I only meditate sporadically, which means I don't get the benefits - unless running provides them instead (I don't run daily; ideally I should meditate on the days I don't run). I meditated almost every day for over a year, and started with a Zen course at a Buddhist temple years ago. I have listened to guided meditations on YouTube and Podcasts, but when I sit down to practice, I use a simple timer: ZenFriend. It has guided meditations for pro accounts. I really like it for its simplicity. It lets me set reminders to meditate, tracks my fidelity in a dashboard, and it has a very light social aspect to it - you can see who else in the world is meditating. One thing I would appreciate all apps to do (GoogleMaps does this if you elect it to!) is to block off time in a chosen calendar as time I've spent meditating. I do have a Health calendar I use for any time spent on that purpose, and that's the one I'd choose. I imagine Apple's Health app would be a good place to capture this info as well.

I used Headspace and it was cool but it got a bit expensive to be spending money on it with other streaming services being paid for every month. I think there are free meditations but I haven't been back in for a while now :(
