As its name suggests, Insight Timer started as a simple timer app for meditating. But it’s evolved into a comprehensive (and award-winning) way to help people reduce anxiety, improve their sleep, and maybe even gain a little insight along the way. It features thousands of guided meditations across a range of styles: Buddhist mindfulness (which channels your inner monk), Kundalini yoga (which focuses on your posture), walking meditation (which is meditation on the move), and many others. Lessons range from just a few minutes to long and luxurious.

I became aware of the existence of this app during a professional training on Mindfulness. My roommate kindly shared it with me and I am forever grateful to her. It was in February of 2015. Ever since then this app became an important part of my daily life. It is simple to navigate, trustworthy and supportive. I can follow my mentors and teachers in their latest practices and techniques. Or, I can explore something new and out of my comfort zone. Being with IT helped me to keep my practice in meditation continue to grow stronger. It is truly my daily routine and inspiration. I enjoy the genuine communal feeling that the creators of this app were able to create. It makes me feel close to my relatives abroad, as well as all the IT virtual relatives that share similar interests and motivation. The idea of live events became a prodigy. Ironically, pandemic made our IT community stronger and more resilient as you can always rely on a “just right “ practice to be available for your emotional needs during these uniquely trying times we are living right now. To the Team of those who keep a loving eye on this app and check its pulse with far more insight and vision that I can imagine, all my Love, Gratitude and Best Wishes. 💞Just continue to Be. Quick suggestion/inquiry: is it possible to create a reminder within this app for the live events? Something akin to the alarm clock on the day of the event, maybe within one hour of its start? Just a thought. Namaste ⚓️
Fantastic platform. Fantastic idea. Just a few things to consider…

Nearly perfect. In terms of bugs, app crashes, buffering times, they just do not exists (possibly if your using a very old phone, but that’s on you). Organization of the app however, needs major work. On the Home Screen if you do a premium course or any course or challenge over multiple days, after the first session, that challenge is nowhere to be found. Unless you remember the exact name, or teacher you listened to, it’s an absolute pain finding your recently played episodes. Right now I have to go into one of the teachers I follow and then scroll down to a 31-day challenge she was featured in, just to continue where I left off on that challenge. No workaround exists that I have found easily, and I feel like I have put in a very good effort trying to pin this challenge or save it to my dashboard, but nothing. Only thing you can save of follow after challenges is the teacher you most recently listened too.. not the challenge itself. This is very frustrating, but then again, I just meditate it off and feel better. Overall excellent, but organization and ease of finding challenges and multiple day, multi-teacher course should be able to be easily saved or pinned somewhere where you can just go and listen too… and folders aren’t a great feature. It’s just kind of a mess. You should also be able to customize your Home Screen, or at the very least, your profile screen. So lack of this bumps it down a solid star

I joined insight timer at the end of 2020, to find a way to help me sleep. I found a teacher I loved, that taught abhyanga - I had never heard of this, but The teacher made it so intriguing, I had to learn more. This teacher was a absent for a while, and soon I found the IT morning meditation challenge in 2021. That expanded my mind even more. But still, I didn’t spend much time on IT. Not until I had major surgery and could take time off from work. I dove into daily lives, and the world seemed to open up. I feel more grounded now, more hopeful, more held. I now follow a few teachers every time they are on, I do my best to join in the lives. Now, I am going back through the massive library of meditations, bedtime stories, music, talks, to fill the spaces in between. There is literally something for everyone - movement- like yoga and dance, massage, music, singing, art, journaling, book club/ readings, spiritual teachings, Christian teachings, psychology, Ayurveda, readings, astrology, etc! The list goes on! and lives offered at all times a day to suit your time zone, many teachers record their lives, and have other recorded offerings. Maybe best of all are the groups, so you have a community of people with similar interests. Thank you Insight Timer! Next I will sign up for the very low cost annual membership so that I have access to another entire library of courses. Thank you for being here for all of us! It is really a magnificent gift to the world.
