Ratings and Reviews
Perfect
This app is simple, uncomplicated, does not ask you to create an invasive account, you don’t need to remember another password, does not ask you to purchase additional features, just provides simple mindfulness recordings that are helpful. It’s perfect.
Disappointed
Being from Children’s hospital, I had hoped when they said “accessible” they meant visually as well. Audio is great for hearing kids, words are great for those that can read.
I was really hoping there might be visuals for the meditations to go along with both of these options. Drawn cartoons of feet, highlighting which part to focus on. Eyes moving around to three different points; ears picking up sounds that look like three different vibrations; abody that can feel something representing heat, wind, pressure; a nose receiving different colour ‘smells’.
Great app, easy to use!
This app is a great tool and very easy to navigate. Love the option to schedule my mindful breaks throughout the day!
