  • Great app based on real science

    There are so many apps to help with meditation and mindfulness. Some have some good features. Equa is the real deal. This an incredibly well designed app. The content is specifically designed based on principles from cutting edge research at Carnegie Mellon. It is packaged into a well-designed app. Having now used Equa for over a month, I can say it has made a huge difference in my life. I didn’t expect that when I began. I was hoping for a few tips about mindfulness and such. Instead I really find myself looking at life differently- and for the better. Highly recommended.

  • Great when it works

    The first 13 lessons were great. Although I’m a premium subscriber, the app doesn’t allow me to proceed any further. When I click on lesson 14, the screen redirects me to “subscribe”

  • Repetitive

    I enjoyed the few introductory sessions I did before subscribing, but have been disappointed by the repetitive content. There isn't much difference from one course to another.

    Hi run2tunes, Thank you for your feedback - the positive and the constructive! We always aim to exceed expectations, and we're bummed we missed the mark for you. Please reach out to support@equahealth.io and we'd be excited to chat further on how we can make your experience learning with Equa even better.
  • Nicely Guided Tour of Equanimity

    First unit gives relaxing overview of the basics of equanimity and mindfulness meditation. Thanks!
  • Go for the monthly subscription

    It was hard to tell what was included in the app before subscribing. After the introductory course, there are 35 or so guided sessions (as of Feb 2024). I wish I had realized that before I sprang for the annual subscription. Hopefully they’ll be adding more soon.

    Thank you for your feedback, ael! You're right, it isn't as clear as it could be to see what's included in the app before subscribing. That wasn't our intention, and we are developing a new orientation that will make this clearer to folks before subscribing. We're also working hard to get new curriculum into the app as we speak :) We always aim to exceed expectations, and we're sorry we didn't for you. Please reach out to support@equahealth.io and we'd be excited to make it up to you.
  • it’s not a meditation app, it’s a sales pitch

    i gave up at 6:31 when they mentioned equa for what seemed like the 15th time. Back to 10% happier.
  • Skills, Science, Simplicity, Suggestions

    I love the skills based approach behind this method. It’s the first time any mindfulness program has explained the three attention skills (concentration, clarity and EQUAnimity) that mindful practice helps me develop and why those skills are critical to heightened states (e.g. creativity, flow, presence) and overall well being. The fact this comes out of the leading mindfulness research lab in the world (Carnegie Mellon University Health and Human Performance Lab) and has been proven to get results is huge for me. I like that science supports this, it’s just not some woo woo mantra thing, it’s practical and results and supported by legit scientific studies. It’s super simple, the app shows me how to practice sitting and throughout my entire day, easily. Learning to practice mindful with micro hits of practice all day actively is amazing. And finally, it’s interactive, I get to choose what skills I want to focus on and get personalized coaching with a few taps of the screen. I’ve tried all the other major meditation/mindfulness apps… none come close to EQUA.
