Ratings and reviews

Very straight forward guidance that has helped me get so much more relaxation and headspace. Tons of teachers to choose from and the basics are the perfect length of time for anyone. I have a very fast-paced mind with an infinite amount of racing thoughts. After doing just a couple sessions of the basics, I felt I had more peace and control than I've ever had. And for any of you skeptic Christians, this is merely teaching you breathing exercises and focus. No secular meditation or mantras.

Headspace feels extremely forced and one-size-fits all. No personalizing. Also, the opposite of smart. If I'm using it at 2:30 in the morning, chances are I need help sleeping. The app knows the time. Why doesn't it prompt me right to the "go to sleep" content? Likewise, it offers no diversity in the age of coaches. We all find different voices soothing. For me, the voice of an elderly gentleman would be grounding, centering and soothing. But that doesn't seem to be an option anywhere.

Headspace has gone from a beautifully simple and curated selection of accessible meditation and sleep tools to a bloated hodgepodge of features and tangentially-related projects. We don't need mental health coaching, study music, or workouts on our meditation app. It only takes away focus from the actual good part of the product and makes it harder and harder to access. In software development, multi-tasking is almost always a mistake, and Headspace is no exception.

What's new

A steady meditation practice can calm the mind. But sometimes a bug appears in the app and it distracts us. We removed that bug from this latest version, and we already feel more at ease.
