It's the best program I've come across and I'm grateful for it. It would be helpful if option to download the practises can be added. Sometimes the app doesn't open and I've to login again and again. Except these two things everything about the program is wonderful. Edit- the issue regarding login has been resolved, thank you. P.S. waiting for option to download the practises. Edit: 12 May, 2022 I'm unable to use the app. Don't know why it's showing no meditation at all.

Giving 5 stars for the great experience this app provides. However, I'd like to report a bug: If the screen locks in the middle of a session, when it unlocks the circle progress bar is left behind to when it was blocked, even if the session is towards the end. This will make the session be displayed as not completed in the main screen.

I've really enjoyed using this app. Been meditating off and on for years and I've found I'm more motivated to meditate as a result of the mini-learning sessions they provide. I would highly recommend to people who want to know the science behind mindfulness and meditation.

Excellent app bringing together so much that is known to help rewire the patterns of our difficulties . I have only just started it but I look forward to using it and don't feel any sense of it being a chore. The practices are easy and intended to be able to use during the day.

I love this app, it's genuinely helping to change my life! I've been on a mission to develop healthier habits to help manage my ADHD, and having this resource (at no cost!) has been such a huge help towards finally being able to actually maintain a daily meditation routine, after trying to do so for years. I was always scared off from other apps due to high subscription fees, so I deeply appreciate Healthy Minds. Thank you so much!

Amazing that this is a free app ( hats off and thank you) and very professionally presented material. I have found the material very personally rewarding. Most apps of this caliber charge a lot of money for an annual subscription. This app, however, is in a class of it's own.... Best app of it's kind out there.

My favourite app. It has helped me start a sustainable mindfulness/meditation practice. Something I've struggled with in the past is getting into a rhythm with meditation after starting, and the high costs of subscription-based apps (I can't justify the cost). HMP is intuitive and research-backed. Also free because they are using it for research. The sessions are short, easy to fit in, and actually helpful. It's nice that the tone is neutral, does not seem to be an ideology being pushed.

Thanks you for having a mental health app for everyone to use even people down on their luck. A healthy mind is a productive mind and productivity usually means people can afford to donate to keep the app to going forward not only for their own quality of life but for the people not doing so well. It's hard to be fruitful in a mind that has a war going on. When you are feeling and doing better, just remember what it felt in the beginning and give back to help that old you. Thanks

I loved this app. It turned me into a daily meditator. Sadly, when I got a new phone (just an upgrade from one Pixel phone to another) the app says my email is invalid and will not let me log in. It also will not let me create a new account using a different email. I have reinstalled it, restarted my phone, downloaded all phone updates, all to no avail. It continues to say emails are invalid. I emailed their support folks and received only an auto response. Ug.

This app has helped me greatly, especially as a bit of a former skeptic toward mindfulness and meditation. would love if there was offline support - would even pay for that feature! here's hoping you can implement it in the future, thanks!

A tremendously helpful app. The lessons, delivered like mini podcasts, and the meditations, which give options for length, speaker, and if conducted while sitting or doing an activity, are top notch. In my experience, it's a "thinking man's" mindfulness app. Most apps focus on presence, mindfulness, and attention. This does that, especially in the "awareness" branch. But it also encourages more reflection than other apps. I really enjoy this, though I understand it might not be for everyone.✌️

The guided course containing lessons and practice is great, I enjoy the default voice as well (sometimes you can change voices if you want). Great for beginners and highly recommended! The app is free and only ever ask for donations in a non intrusive manner after you have used the app for a while. There are unguided and guided meditations. You can choose your session length, style (active or sitting). The app is simple, user friendly and aesthetically pleasing.

A superb course which has helped me hugely. There is a problem from the module 'Connection' onwards which means the app does not record that you have listened to certain lessons/meditations, so you have enter the next session manually.

If you are interested in the science behind mindfulness and changing thinking patterns you will enjoy learning from this app. You don't have to do the learning to use the meditations, but I really appreciate it.

This program has helped my mindset immensely. It's a well designed system to realign your perspective. Take your time with it, and keep in mind that education is pointless unless it's put into practice. It takes a conscious effort each day.

Gay. S. Mar 15, 2022     

Great Application - Cognitive science and compassion based tool that is much more and much better than expected. One spends a few minutes answering questions that format the app to one's personality and needs before starting. As one develops one's awareness and skills the app can be reset to focus on other areas for personal growth.

I love this app! It is free, high quality and loaded with great advice. I am a Christian woman and it is lovely that I dont feel compromised in my faith by having to chant mantra's etc. As an older woman it is also wonderful to use an easy app that gives simple to follow directions with a great variety of information and instruction. I dont think ANYONE breathes properly or has any idea of the benefits of calming and centering the mind unless they do something like this. THANK YOU!

Wil. L. May 3, 2022     

A perfect blend of education and practical technique. If you have no experience with mindfulness/meditation or a lifelong practice, this app is an amazing tool for your journey inward.

Sea. L. Mar 18, 2022     

First process I've met which takes mindfulness into the everyday life. App is great to but the back button doesn't work (android S8). Have to use the home button to leave.

Check out this integrated approach to a healthier mind that presents a well-rounded program, easy to use, based on solid reasearch. It delivers real results...good stuff!

Bet. B. Apr 15, 2022     

Practicing the Healthy Minds meditations has greatly enriched my life. It has helped me understand and given me ways to deal with and/or counteract some chronic anxiety I have had since having a heart procedure. I am very thankful to have been made aware of the app.

This app has been a wellspring of knowledge for someone who has been meditating for 25+ years. It explores the nooks and crannies that really broaden practice. I donate monthly for this free app for good reasons.

Ber. L. May 1, 2022     

Great! Takes you on a journey to build meditation capability which is great for those of us starting out or having tried and failed with other apps or programmes.

Ale. C. Apr 6, 2022     

Fantastic app! I wish some more bugs where fixes (sometimes the app closes in the middle of a practice or it does not register when I did a practice/lesson)

Ale. S. Feb 14, 2022     

I've been using Healthy Minds for nearly 8 months and noticed a positive change in me, I have extreme anxiety and got sober 8 months ago also, this app helped me thru the worst of it. Plus it's 100% FREEWARE NO ADS! Other apps I've tried are not even close to the high level of care put into every little aspect of this app. I can tell that whoever made this is giving an honest attempt at helping people.

Zam. H. May 11, 2022     

Amazing program, I recommend it to all of my friends. The teachings are so in line with science and mental wellness!

Pet. O. May 18, 2022     

Pretty good app and helpful but the load times, for me, are very slow. I'm impatienty waiting to learn patience. ;)

Car. G. Feb 1, 2022     

Approachable program that explains clearly the options and rationale for each activity. Feels less like a self-help program and more of a tool to learn about your brain and train it to be as healthy and focused as possible. It encourages you to experience the full range of emotions in life.

Fra. V. Mar 16, 2022     

Very informative and well researched, i feel like one can personally relate to the speakers as well. Well done on a great APP

It is great for putting life's events into perspective. It has many practical ideas, and ways to help you understand your mind, and create healthy habits.
