Description

With this easy-to-use app, you can practice mindfulness meditation anywhere, anytime with the guidance of the UCLA Mindful Awareness Research Center. The app includes meditations in multiple languages. Scientific research shows mindfulness can help manage stress-related physical conditions, reduce anxiety and depression, and cultivate positive emotions.

Mindfulness is paying attention to our present moment experiences with openness and curiosity and a willingness to be with our experience. Through regular practice, taught through this app, you can develop a meditation practice and learn to bring more mindfulness into your daily life.

This app offers:

• Basic Meditations for getting started, in English and multiple languages.

Languages include Armenian, Cantonese, Farsi, Filipino, French, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Mixteco, Russian, Spanish, Vietnamese, American Sign Language

• Wellness Meditations for people suffering from challenging health conditions

• Informative videos exploring how to get started, supportive meditation postures, and the science of mindfulness

• Weekly podcasts from UCLA's Hammer Museum and other drop-in meditation sessions-- a 30-minute meditation on different themes you can search for and bookmark

• A timer to meditate on your own

Great app - need offline access

Hi there, thanks for making a great free meditation app! You made me proud to be a UCLA alumni.

I’m using it everyday in my commute to be more mindful. Can you please make it work offline too? The signal is often choppy out here, and this results in slow buffering.

It will also save server hosting cost for UCLA because we don’t need to download the audio files every time we access it.

Thanks and may this quick fix ease suffering for others in the same predicament too.

Needs a good internet connection

Good app, but doesn’t work well when you have poor internet connection. Seems to stream the meditations from the web rather than having them included in the app.
