Headspace is on a mission to improve the health and happiness of the world. And with millions of users in more than 190 countries, they are well on our way. Try the new Headspace app.
LOVE the re-worked app Headspace team! So great to have multiple packs running side by side, some new content for the kids and more.
I encountered a couple of crashes in the first wee while, which I'm sure you'll patch quickly enough.
Great work and thanks for keeping me on track and balanced in my life and work.
p.s. if people haven't done the Creativity Pack - I would strongly recommend you find your way there now!

For those of you who want to become their best selves, Headspace is a fantastic intro to the world of meditation. Andy is a great guide and I've improved so much at work and home thanks to being more mindful throughout my day. Would highly recommend for people who want to live 'optimally'.
If you're the kind of person who needs more extrinsic motivation, this may not be for you as the 'hook' to continue daily meditation is more nuanced and self-actualized.
Pros:
Approachable and effective introduction to mindfulness and meditation.
Cons:
Intrinsic motivation requires lots of self-discipline.

any links to independent evidence that any of this is highly effective? or just lotta hype and placebos?

I'm a recent Headspace user and it's been really useful and calming, especially when work gets stressful and I need a way to just have a few moments to relax. The option of a 3-minute session is great because it gives me a way to feel calm while barely taking work time away. Highly recommended. Great job on this app guys!
I only went in for a quick 5 minutes session and I found it very soothing, so much that I nearly slept in the middle of the day. The voice over is very strong and in some ways better than Simple Habit. It does also have a great selection of content and as you might have guessed is getting into my shortlist.
Very easy to use, great selection of content & a very soothing yet strong voice.
Cons:
Haven't got any yet.

Love Headspace! Have been using it for a couple of months now and I am feeling less stressed, have learned a lot about my own mind, am better able of enjoying the little things and can genuinely say it has increased my general level of happiness.

I don't mind paying each month because this is one of the best ways for me to find balance in my life.
Pros:
They give you daily reminders or nudges to practice daily.
Cons:
Since they charge monthly I almost get stressed when I don't use their app.
