Leave a Review Brightmind Meditation
Keep on keeping on
The only real trick I’ve found to medication is to not give up. Some days I meditate and I feel amazing right away. Other days it doesn’t seem like it’s doing anything. But then later in the day I noticed it’s helped me. Some days I don’t notice the difference at all. But over the long-term, it’s changed my life. Best of luck to anyone who is just starting out with meditation. You won’t regret it.Show lessDale Phillips

So sorry to hear that! Please reach out to hello@brightmind.com, they can assist you with this error and will take of you :)Immensely impressive.
I have been meditating for 7ish years and have tried Headspace and 10% Happier in addition to Brightmind. I think all three apps are good for people who want to start a meditation practice.
That said, for me Brightmind is far and away the most helpful because it is a coherent curriculum that provides a structured progression while also giving a wide variety of options. I had hit a plateau with my meditation practice and was on the verge of giving up. Shinzen Young’s “Unified Mindfulness”, which is the conceptual framework that underlies the app, provides tools that helped me find concentration, clarity, and equanimity in a far more powerful yet flexible way.
Other apps, books, and methods seem to repeat the same (to me, stale) advice: “just return to your breath” with a haphazard mixture of voices and guidance saying mostly the exact same thing.
Brightmind and Unified Mindfulness guided me through a series of very diverse approaches, allowing me to experiment and find a technique that works FAR better for me than watching my breath. I’m re-energized and committed in a transformed way.Show lessAmesiowa
Soothing voice
I like julienna’s voice. I’ll keep using it as long as they keep releasing content with her.Jasonscott21

Clear, purposeful, matter-of-fact
Better than other apps I’ve tried, Brightmind defines concepts clearly. I feel like I’m learning, not just practicing.
So far (13 lessons in) I haven’t encountered instructors with overly-soothing tones that creep me out. Instruction is gentle but not coddling, and just matter-of-fact.
The lessons build on each other purposefully.Show less_nathanlucy
