First guided meditation using HeadSpace app / Review - D00k13 Digest #74


This video is of my first experience using the HeadSpace guided meditation app suggested to me by @greencross, actually my first experience doing any real meditation. After words I give a quick review of what I thought of the experience and how it left me feeling. Check the video out and hey maybe try your first meditation along with me I recorded the whole thing!

First Meditation EVER

Day One Words of Advice

  • I have never really had an interest in trying to meditate till now. Struggling with wondering/random thoughts and keeping myself focused I decided to give it a go I mean it can't hurt right?
  • Just about everyone has suggested to me to try meditating, free my mind from the stress I feel on a daily basis
  • Decided to try a guided meditation as I really have no idea what it is all about in the first place

Thank You @greencross

Thank You @greencross

  • @greencross suggested this app to me while we were discussing what has helped him with his times of struggle
  • He also offered to give me his free month trial, the HeadSpace app has a free option which I am using now yet I am certain that the paid service will go much more in depth so I may take you up on this offer!
  • I am glad you were able to find this option and make use of it, thanks again for the refferal

HeadSpace App

  • Starting off with the free 10 day meditation basics for beginners, many packs available
  • Very nice looking and functioning app, reminds you to meditate daily at the times you set
  • Has a neat daily reminder feature giving you an alert with some words of wisdom to help you through your day
  • Many different options, Minis - super short exercises do it anytime your free in 1 to 3 mins, Singles - one off sessions to add some mindfulness to your day, Packs - themed for specific topics each session building off the previous, even a section for kids!
  • Keeps track of your time, sessions, average time, order, can even add buddies and will log it to your health information for reference with other applications
  • I Love the guys voice, very relaxing to listen to

Conclusion

Feeling Better?

  • I definitely noticed a increase in my focus upon completing my first session
  • Noticed while doing editing that my tone changed, maybe just mimicking the voice I was listening to but I think that is a good sight of its effectiveness on me
  • I will try it next time after my shower, more comfortable in my own skin, I became aware of how stiff I feel almost suddenly while I was meditating
  • Guided meditation is definitely a good way to start into it, at least until I can build my internal dialog into something I can meditate to

Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!?!?

  • Do you meditate? Does it help?
  • Suggestions for me?
