~~ 2021 Pick: Best Meditation Apps - Wirecutter by New York Times ~~

Your path to well-being. Powered by science.

Backed by four decades of research from world-renowned neuroscientist Dr. Richard Davidson and his team at the Center for Healthy Minds at the University of Wisconsin - Madison & Healthy Minds Innovations, the Healthy Minds Program trains your mind through meditation and podcast-style lessons to develop skills - to gain focus, reduce stress, and maintain positive social connections.

Through hundreds of hours of guided meditations developed directly from the scientific understanding of the mind, podcast-style teachings, and progress tracking features, you can change your mind to manage stress, from family to the workplace and beyond.

Featuring our proprietary Awareness, Connection, Insight, and Purpose, Well-being Framework, the Healthy Minds Program is a holistic, all-encompassing meditation app that offers the best of both guided meditations and opportunities to learn. You’ll learn simple skills to enhance personal well-being, build healthy relationships, and improve communication, performance, and creativity.

The ground-breaking Healthy Minds Program App uses neuroscience, contemplative traditions, and skill-based learning methods to help you develop the skills for a healthy mind.

What makes us unique

Developed from Science: 
While many mediation apps can claim the scientific benefits of mediation, our practices are developed directly out of neuroscientific research. You’ll also hear from the world’s foremost neuroscientists about concepts like neuroplasticity and how to train your mind;

Made for Busy Lives: 
Our app features active meditation practices that you can fit into your busy lifestyle. Don’t have time to sit for 20 minutes? Put on an active practice and train your mind while you fold the laundry;

Guided by Measurement:
Thanks to pioneering scientific research, the Healthy Minds Program offers the first mobile assessments of mental and emotional well-being. Learn about your current level of well-being and contribute to cutting edge research on the science of well-being. Also integrates with Apple Health to track your mindful minutes;

Goes Beyond Mindfulness:
Emotional and Physical well-being is a skill that can be taught. Our app is based on a comprehensive framework for well-being and goes beyond mindfulness as one of these skills.
-Awareness: Be Present
-Connection: Feel Connected
-Insight: Get Curious
-Purpose: Stay Motivated

Driven by Mission and Supported by Donation:
The Healthy Minds Program is made possible by our donors in support of a vision of a kinder, wiser, more compassionate world. Unlike other apps that require a subscription, the Healthy Minds Program is available by donation, driven by a mission to translate science into tools to cultivate and measure well-being.

The one app I cannot live without.

I’ve been using Healthy Minds for well over a year now and I absolutely love it!

The features that I find most useful are:

- it goes beyond mindfulness only. It teaches you about connecting, purpose and self-knowledge in a broader way.

- it’s backed up by science but it also takes care of human beings. I mean, it’s important to know the scientific data behind what’s being recommended, but what I think is equally important is how Healthy Minds makes all this data accessible and easily digestible for real people within everyday contexts.

- I find it great too how it offers a learning component followed by a practice. It gives you a sense of progression and all makes sense within each are of improvement.

- the follow-up questionnaires are very useful too, as a way to monitor your progress.

If there’s one recommendation:

It would be nice to see the four (or five, including “Foundations”) areas - Awareness, Connection, Insight and Purpose, displayed together as in some sort of a map, so we can see the bigger picture of what we’re doing and monitor how they interact with each other.

Thanks for making Healthy Minds accessible for everyone and sharing so much value! 🙏

Love this app

I’m new to mindfulness and this is the first app I’ve used to help me develop a daily mindfulness routine. I love the guided practices but I especially like the learning elements of the app with the quick learning posts, the verbal tips at the end of most practices and the written tips encouraging you to focus on something each day. So pleased I came across this app and thanks for making it available to us all.

Wonderful App

Started using the app only for last 3-4 weeks. It has already helped me to improve my awareness and controlling reactions instead of responding. I can’t wait to listen rest of the sections. Thank you healthy mind team
