Powerful for treating anxiety

I came across this by chance but am so glad I did. I suffer with high functioning anxiety which is still very debilitating. I’ve been using mindful techniques for some time but the alpha playlist on the app can reduce high feeling of anxiety to calm in just a few minutes. It’s like anything else I have tried. It’s also great to play when sleeping or just for some calming background music. Not sure how much it is promoted, suggest company invests in more marketing as I think this could benefit a lot more people.

Impossible to cancel

I signed up for it to try to help with anxiety and see if it would work. I found it to induce more anxiety, but kept it going for 3 months. It’s essentially the same sound you listen to everyday for months on end with subliminal changes that are supposed to be good for your brain. I kept feeling that it’s wasn’t a good experience, so I decided to cancel. You have to call to cancel, which is always an annoying tactic which serves the company and not the customer. After calling and canceling, I still got charged and need to call again. Maybe this system works for some, but I do not recommend this service for everyone, or for most.

Update: After I “canceled”, it’s still been charging me for the last 4 months. I’m not sure if it’s an intentional scam, or they are just extremely disorganized and unprofessional.

Terrible

These developers are full of themselves. They give you brief access and then cut you off from supposedly free app. Supposedly you have to get a membership somewhere but even that’s confusing. Too many good apps out there to waste time with this one.

Brilliant - if you realise what it is capable of

This app has the ability to induce a deep meditative state just by sitting quietly and listening. The benefits are numerous and it is definitely worth going onto their website and learning to understand the technology and what it can do for you. I have been meditating with various methods since the late 70s and believe this is the best available now. Hey, you can try it free for 30 days, what is there to lose?
So, in answer to Jkat96, yes, there are plenty of sources of nice natural sounds and gongs and Tibetan bells. This is something on a totally different level. Do the research and reading and try it out and I believe you will come to the same conclusion as me.
Or just get it and try it out! 😉

Nothing special

I have only tried it once and will try it again, but the noises aren't anything special since it is mainly rain and the occasional jinglebell sound effect, nothing you can't find on white noise machines or on the internet already.

Boring and uselesssssssss

... At least that's how the fake old dude on the website pronounces words. Don't even waste your time making an account! You know it's going to be boring if their display picture is making an account. PLEASE don't download it. (To the people looking at this review in disappointment and made this app try something that isn't a fake)
