Application for meditation habits

Today meditation has a spotlight whole over the countries because of plenty of beneficial of it. Even some companies started meditation sessions at the workplace for employees and mindfulness classes also opened at the sports centers too. If you are interested in this class but, you don’t have enough time or there is no class nearby, then you can try to use the meditation application. In this post, let me introduce some applications of meditation that I used for a few days.

Application for meditation: Aura

The first application that I want to share is Aura.

This app is a paid app and can be used by paying $11.99 per month or $59.99 per year. When you first sign up, you can explore the app for free for 7 days. If you look at the landing page of this app (at the very beginning), it says all in one. So, it is quite useful as it provides various content other than meditation.

Personalize Page

When you first install the app, it is complicated because you have to enter quite a lot of information.

You need to check your age, the time you want to use, the nationality of the coach you are taking classes from, and the field you are interested in.

Although it is a bit cumbersome, it has the advantage of allowing you to quickly find the information that is right for you by recommending content to suit your tastes based on the data.

You can also select the content you are interested in, and it is divided into 11 types of content, including mindfulness, ASMR, prayer, and work wellness. You can also choose a topic based on when you want to use the app. For example, if you need advice and coaching on health management, health coaching,

If you need to manage stress at work, then check on ‘Work’

When you are depressed, you can choose the ones that suit you by selecting ‘Depression’. In particular, the Aura app also has a separate session called Beginner Meditation, which will be helpful for those who are starting to meditate for the first time and do not know how to form habits, starting with breathing.

App Functions

After basic settings, there are 5 tabs at the bottom.

Sleep tap includes sounds, ASMR, music, stories, etc. that help you fall asleep. You can set the duration of the time, this content will continue until you fell asleep. Additionally, there are even stories that are good for children to listen to before going to bed. If your child does not sleep well, it would be a good idea to help them develop sleeping habits by listening to this content together.

Coaching is conducted 1:1, and after choosing an instructor that suits you, you can learn about your attitude toward life and stress management methods by taking classes. However, for this part, you must pay an additional amount to the instructor. This is not a free service.

The Live tab has the advantage of allowing you to actually listen to teachers’ coaching, so if you find a coach that suits you, you can continue taking their classes over and over again.

Aura’s home page recommends sessions, classes, and podcasts worth listening to today. When you click the mail icon on the right, the notifications item appears, where you can check the features session. In particular, you can listen to the health management know-how of famous celebrities, and by listening, you can learn about how they managed their mental health to get to that point.

Lastly, on the me page, you can check the content you recently listened to or saved. There is also a section at the bottom where you can check your mood called My mood. You can check how your mood is changing while using the app.

Aura Review

I used this Aura app for 5 days so far, I really enjoy this app. It pushes an alert nudge and reminds me to start the mindfulness course. It is really helpful for my insomnia. Usually, I can’t sleep well by thinking something has not happened yet, however, once I start listening to the ASMR, or calm music, I stop thinking, and makes me relax too.

Also, once in a while, I took a celebrity session from New on Aura. That is also really helpful to how to maintain my mental health.

Application for meditation: Headspace

This Headspace app focuses on well-being with mindfulness. You have to pay $12.99 for one month or $69.99 for one year, and you can use it for free for 14 days.

I especially like the app because of its cute UI, and I have been consistently sending meditations where I can enjoy happy ticks and other features. After initially installing, you will almost see a screen like this, and you can turn it on by pushing it to start with pairing, filling, and breathing.

It consists of three tabs. First, the Today tab introduces content that can be done in the morning, afternoon, and evening, and can be compared in your own time.

The tab consists of various contents based on keywords. Surprisingly, there are keywords with interesting topics such as Women’s collection and Beginner Meditation, so I will continue to use the app for a long time. Also, there is Mindful Money, and there are items introduced on how to manage and save money. Also, most videos are about 3 to 5 minutes long, so you can watch them without any pressure.

The My Page section allowed me to keep a record of the videos I had watched. In the part where I ask questions, I am trying to analyze my mind’s tasks so that I can see if my stress is a big deal.

Headspace Review

This Headspace app is a simple and really cute design with practical content. I believe this is a really good app for the beginner of meditation and mindfulness

So far, I just reviewed the Application for meditation (Aura, Headspace). I will use more apps and share it soon!
