How can mindfulness meditation help you?
For thousands of years, meditators have claimed many benefits for their practice. Our experience, and that of Headspace members, suggests that regular mindfulness practice, through meditation, is an effective treatment for stress, worry, lack of focus, relationship problems, addictions and more. It leads to peace of mind and wellbeing, greater focus and creativity and better relationships.

Relax with Calm, a simple mindfulness meditation app featured in the New York Times and LifeHacker, that will bring more clarity, joy, and peace of mind into your life, at work or at home.

Fall asleep faster with over 25 soothing calming sounds which relieve you from outside stress and anxiety. A recent brain imaging study published in a Harvard journal concluded that “mindfulness meditation sessions alter regions of the brain associated with memory, awareness of self, and compassion.”

To cater to different styles we have three mediation options:
a) 7-21 days guided meditation programs which keep track of your progress;
b) unguided meditation sessions; and
c) over 25 guided meditation session that last from just a couple of minutes to up to about 20 minutes.

* Guided Programs *

There are 3 guided programs with more on the way. Our ‘7 Days of Calm’ free introductory program teaches the basics of mindfulness meditation. By breaking down the meditation techniques into 7 steps it is easier to learn how to perform advanced techniques like breathing and attaining the correct posture.

The Now is an app to help you retrain your mind to live more fully in the moment. The Now accomplishes this using a technique called continuous mindfulness training. The process works by using periodic cues, in this case, free iPhone push notifications with an audible chime and relevant message, to remind you to be fully focused on the present. The ultimate goal being to make mindfulness essentially continuous.

7 Second Meditation - Daily Mindfulness Reminder

"This app is kind of like getting a text from a good friend telling you how much they appreciate you: it takes a few seconds to read, puts a smile on your face, and reminds you what's really important in life. Simple, effective, uplifting. I love it!"
- Adam A.

WARNING! Only do this meditation if you currently have a good sense of humor and are not shocked by expletives.

NSFW: F*ck that, a Guided Meditation.

One of the funniest relaxation videos I have ever seen in my life. Totally kind of works though. WARNING: Completely NSFW
