- Pavan Sethibuilding things. · WrittenSuper simple meditation app for beginners to start learning. Give it prime real estate on your home screen to make sure you stick to 10 minutes a day!Carol Mc KeonCEO & Founder of DataKraft · WrittenI just started using this this week to try to manage stress and anxiety better, a total beginner but I find it very good, 10 mins a day on the first round, its not patronizing, I think its a keeperRichard BanfieldCEO, Fresh Tilled Soil · WrittenI've been using Headspace for about 3 months now. I was a little skeptical at first but now I'm hooked. Ideal for beginners but also useful for old timers like me. If you're already doing some type of mindful meditation or breathing this can be used to add some new focusing elements to the practice.
- Frederik WallerProduct @ N26 · WrittenGreat alternative to Headspace with more free content available. However, I have to admit, the narrator from Headspace is better and more relaxing.My favorite one! I started my meditation practice using Stop, Breathe & Think. It helped me to relax and manage anxiety and stress. I believe that it's perfect for beginners.Anne-Laure Le CunffFounder, Ness Labs · WrittenLove this app I've recently discovered. They did a great job with the web app too so you can use it anywhere.
- i used it for a couple of mothns and i must say it is fully costumazible and relaxing
- Gaurav AgrawalCoder, Thinker, Curious observer · WrittenI personally used this, Its has smaller sessions, which is best for beginners, other then meditation sessions it has very focused sessions for different stress moments.
- I was in search of a good meditation app this past weekend and landed on Meditation Studio. I like how they have guided meditation separated into different categories like stress, sleep and happiness. The guides are broken up into downloadable audio tracks that can easily be deleted. Another bonus is that it tracks your progress under the MIndfulness category in iOS' Health app.Andrew PelusoMarketing Director · WrittenSimple. Basic. Helpful. A nice variety of meditations and voices to take you through a meditation.
- Alec EllinCo-founder, Laylo · WrittenLove this for going to sleep / can't sleep meditationsVery simple, especially for sleeplessness. Only complaint is categories are hard to discern in the dark, making navigation harder than it needs to be.
- Mario MendozaDigital Strategist, Hip Hop Distribution · WrittenI've been using this app for 146 days and love it. The guided meditations offer various playlists to explore such as meditations based on stress relief, sleep, chanting/mantras, and mindfulness just to name a few. It also has a nice timer that can let you just explore your own meditation practice as well. The stats section is nice and motivating when you see how many consecutive days you have been practicing and what time was dedicated. I was also very impressed with the community. When you finish meditating it offers a list of people across the globe who were meditating at the same time as you, which is really cool. You can "thank them of meditating with me" and potentially become friends.Brendan BeirneProduct / strategy, Joojoo · WrittenFunctional, straightforward meditation app with community and guided meditation features.joshua bradleyPassionate about making life better · WrittenWhile it has more features perhaps than some of the others, the wealth of guided meditations ensures that meditation at any level is available with guidance from some great teachers. Also, I would suggest trying to get in on the beta for Oak Meditation app by Kevin Rose. It is going to be a strong offering and is perfect for getting started
- Alfredo TorresOwner, LTBP · WrittenIf you're a beginner, you still want to know why you should even meditate. Is there a point to sitting and breathing for x amount of time? Will it actually work for you? What are the real benefits? 10% Happier answers this in a conversational way. Like you and me talking, then meditating for a few minutes.
- S-M RobinsonCreative Director · WrittenThey could use a little more musical variety, but I find that I feel better after a Brain.fm session as opposed to others.
- Beth HudsonSocial Media Marketer, Recruitee · WrittenPacifica is more of cognitive behavioral therapy, but they have guided and unguided meditation for free on the app, as well! I just think it's designed really well, and you don't have to make in-app purchases unless you want to.
- Oscar MorrisonDesigner and builder of things · WrittenIts a hardware + software solution, but for me made it super easy to get into meditation. I love all the data it provides as well. I highly recommend.

- Pause makes it super easy to get over the initial hump of mediation. The initial experience is following a circle on your screen with your finger while listening to relaxing music. The action naturally puts you in the flow of meditation.
- I already used Headspace and Calm but find out that Inscape has some longer sessions with techniques that worked better with me.
