Ratings and reviews

I had a separate handheld version of this app for years, but it died on me. I am SOOOOO happy to find the familiar voice available in the Google Play Store! Thank you very much! I absolutely love the "Tuning In" meditation. I use it for everything, even for sleep. It relaxes my entire body.

Excellent compendium of tools to help you relax and sleep. Since I now have the Soldiers Trifecta, PTSD, Depression and Anxiety this has been amazing at helping with the bad days. And its free, and very easy to use. Thank you.

Having each meditation track so short with no option of a repeat button or the ability to jump to the next session of relaxation makes it unusable.
