Like many self-care practices, meditation is simple to do but hard to stick with. If you’ve had trouble keeping up with it, Zen—Meditation may be just the guide you need.
Created by Brazilian blogger Juliana Góes, the app contains exercises led by experts and meditations in categories to suit any need: for instance Anxiety Relief, Quit Smoking, and Harmony for Couples.
If you’re looking for an even more personalized experience, tap the Therapy tab. Tell the app how you’re feeling—sad, discouraged, worried, excited—and press play. You’ll receive a meditation to meet you in that exact moment. Take a few minutes to get a handle on your emotions and come out the other side feeling refreshed.
Zen offers a free and introductory 21-day meditation program, as well as a free playlist of 13 relaxing songs designed to help you drift off to sleep. Subscribe to get access to dozens of guided meditations.
