The Benefits Of Mindfulness Apps

Meditation has been used by cultures all over the world to achieve enlightenment, but it also has lots of other benefits for busy people like you and me! In today’s fast-paced world, we forget how stepping back, doing nothing, and breathing can be good for our state of mind. Thankfully, tons of apps offer guided meditations with exercises to help reduce anxiety, stress, and depression while improving sleep, focus, and gratitude. Not only do they soothe the senses, but they also give us time to manage our mental health and emotional wellbeing with minimal effort.

The Breathing App is inspired by resonance, the scientific name that describes what happens when our heart rate, heart rate variability, blood pressure, and brainwave function come into a coherent frequency. It occurs spontaneously when we breathe at a rate of six breaths per minute (instead of our usual 15-18). #theBreathingApp #wellbeing
