She speaks with an annoyingly breathy voice in a staccato pattern. There are pauses mid-sentence that leave you wondering what’s coming next and she’ll say one word slowly and drawn out, wait a beat and then say a few words very quickly. She also works so hard at being breathy at the end of a sentence that sometimes you can’t understand what she’s saying. Not at all relaxing. Instead of having a soothing flow, it was like being poked with a stick every few seconds. I am really sorry to leave a review like this but all this meditation did was leave me agitated. I gave two stars only because of the “story”. ### 4/5 — Keri Logan *2025-05-30, version 2.8.1* Keri's : " Feeling protected and supported" has been great! ### 4/5 — 5min Relaxation *2022-05-03, version 2.8.1* Peaceful and beautiful 👍 ### 4/5 — Nice *2021-06-14, version 2.8.1* Nice app but have to always have to filter search for free meditations. ### 4/5 — recommended even for people who have subscription apps *2021-02-15, version 2.8.1* I am in advanced meditator and this is one of the apps that I use often and for several years. for a few dollars you can buy meditation meditation or a selection of music and it's yours to keep even if you are paying 85 for $100 a year for the 10% happier app or the same Paris app or one of the other premium apps you might want to keep this app as a side app also good for beginners ### 5/5 — Review *2020-05-22, version 2.8.1* This meditation app has been so fabulous.Prices are so reasonable that you can buy many.I like the variety of subjects so I can switch around.These guided meditations have seen me thru many rough roads in my life.Thank u for bringing this wonderful guidance to our meditation. ### 5/5 — Not bad *2020-05-09, version 2.8.1* Not bad ### 5/5 — Thank You! *2020-04-22, version 2.8.1* Insomnia has had me exhausted, getting sleep in two hour increments and using up valuable daytime hours. Seldom am I able to stay in bed. This time, last night, I listened to one of these and fell back asleep a couple of times. In bed!! I am extremely grateful. ### 4/5 — Relaxation before sleep *2020-03-30, version 2.8.1* In the midst of the current stresses and plethora of COVID information I’m starting to use mindfulness opportunities before bed to calm, relax and clear my mind. I fell asleep before the 20 min meditation finished. : ) Thanks. ### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed. Thank you. *2020-03-07, version 2.8.1* you ### 5/5 — Anxiety *2020-01-27, version 2.8.1* I am finding this helpful at a very difficult time in my life. ### 5/5 — Thank you!!! *2020-01-27, version 2.8.1* Thank you for this meditation. I just started to create a Morning meditation habit and this meditation is the best start I could possibly had found:) ### 3/5 — Thanks *2019-12-20, version 2.8.1* Best app going ! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2019-12-13, version 2.8.1* This is my favorite meditation app. I have tried others and I love how you can search by topic and speaker. This app has something for everyone. I also love it has short and long meditations for whatever your able to do. ### 3/5 — Meditations repeat *2019-11-16, version 2.8.1* The meditations repeat which wake me up. There are several meditations I use to help with insomnia that are very helpful. However, they will suddenly repeat waking me up and there’s no way to change the settings. ### 5/5 — Great app *2019-11-04, version 2.8.1* I’m an insomniac and have been for over 20 yrs. This app helps me fall asleep quickly and stay asleep. ### 5/5 — Gratitude *2019-08-26, version 2.8.1* What a fantastic way to start the day! I felt relaxed and energized to nurture my body to lose the weight that I have needed to so that I may live in a healthier way! Thank you! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Paid for Meditations aren’t playing *2020-09-01, version 2.8.1* I am caring for my sister post surgery and suddenly all the meditations we bought are not playing. We are on Wifi and even on data I hit play, a wheel spins, and and it goes right back to the play button. We have paid for several and can’t use them. We need them NOW. We have loved this app until now when we really need it and no where to contact anyone!!! Respond please! ### 1/5 — Can’t even get it to work on my iPhone 11 *2020-02-29, version 2.8.1* What a joke! It won’t even play the free meditations. I got this app to relax & instead it did the exact opposite! It upset me bc it didn’t work. Don’t even bother with this app that can’t get audio to work on a brand new phone ### 1/5 — Contact support unavailable *2020-02-23, version 2.8.1* I like the content.. But it’s impossible to contact support. An email opens up and allows you to type in your message, but the “send” option isn’t highlighted so you can’t send it. Also now that I’ve been on it for over a week… Meditations that I have purchased previously now have to be purchased again, as if I never bought them. Would really like some information on if there is some sort of time limit regarding these purchases. ### 1/5 — Zap Zap Zap *2018-03-02, version 2.8.1* My first time using this app, in desperate need of an unwind and all that’s happened is the opposite! The recording was clearly not done in a studio but in a bedroom. I was listening with sound cancelling headphones. The guide’s sibling was playing video games in the bedroom next door. If you find listening to alien zapping relaxing and reassuring, you’re in for a treat. 10 min body scan ‘Mindfulness Meditation’ by Travis Usinger ### 1/5 — weird sounds, doesn't work *2017-12-31, version 2.8.1* i tried out the free version for a while & was not happy with it. there isn't that much variety imo & i found many of the voices & background music strange & eerie, not relaxing at all. i tried using the app again recently & it simply doesn't work; when i press play on a (free) meditation, the "loading" icon appears & the content never plays. disappointing. ### 1/5 — Not working *2017-03-14, version 2.6.3* I've spent a significant amount of money downloading meditations within this app and now nothing is working....waiting for a solution from company or reimbursement. We'll see what happens ! Not impressed! ### 1/5 — Free meditations ??? *2016-11-24, version 2.5.0* Also those few free guided meditations are not bad, it's very limited what you can access without having to pay for it. So I deleted it after listening a few times to the same one. ### 1/5 — It's a trap *2015-11-01, version 2.3.1* There are only two free meditations. EACH other meditation costs £2.50 😳 Instead, look for a guided meditation PODCAST. ### 1/5 — False advertising *2015-09-20, version 2.3.0* It says 200 free meditations, not true, there's only a couple free meditations you have to pay for the rest ### 1/5 — Money grab *2015-09-17, version 2.3.0* It's free to make it seem like this app is for free but once it's downloaded u can play anything unless u purchase whatever u choose to listen to . Average cost is $2-$4 for all the content in it. Waste of time . I would rather download an app for that much money and have all the meditation features in the their for free than downloading something for free and pay for each one to listen to . Straight up BS ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Keri Logan *2025-01-12, version 2.8.1* Keri's : " Feeling protected and supported" has been great! ### 5/5 — i <3 travis *2024-06-19, version 2.8.1* simple and lots of free stuff. head to feet to sleep by travis has been my go to meditation for years always works. ### 5/5 — Great Options *2022-06-10, version 2.8.1* Thank you for providing an abundance of meditation guides. These have helped me with my anxiety & help me fall asleep at night. xoxo ### 5/5 — Helpful *2021-06-02, version 2.8.1* This is a wonderful app. ### 5/5 — Choices for relaxation *2020-09-30, version 2.8.1* I’ve relied upon Guided Relaxation for more than 5 years and highly recommend it. I am most relaxed after listening and following the guidance of Glenda Cedarleaf! ### 5/5 — Angel *2020-08-07, version 2.8.1* How can I get in contact with this woman? ### 5/5 — I LOVE this app *2020-07-23, version 2.8.1* I use a few apps for meditation. What I love about this one is once you purchase the meditations you want (which you can hear a sample first) they are yours. No yearly fee and no advertisements getting you unfocused from your practice. Terri Cole and Christina Gutierrez are two of my favorites! There are meditations to start and end the day as well as many others for anxiety, insomnia, etc.. Enjoy!!! ### 5/5 — Delyth *2020-07-16, version 2.8.1* I love these guided meditations as I can completely relax and let someone else do the hard work for me as I find my mind too preoccupied if I have to guide myself. There are certain meditations that you may not take to but with such a variety there is a meditation that would suit most people. Also there are different lengths of meditations so if you only have time for a 5 minute session there is one there for you and at least your giving your self that 5 minute moment of bliss. But there are also longer meditations if you have the time to indulge in some you time. Personally I am thankful to have found this app. ### 5/5 — A relaxed start to my day *2020-07-10, version 2.8.1* I have a lot of stress in my life not least trying to care for a parent with dementia. This starts my day reminding me to relax and be kind to myself. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Eating Meditation *2020-06-06, version 2.8.1* Glenda Cedarleaf’s eating meditation was relaxing and thought provoking at the same time. She has a wonderfully soothing, deep voice. I enjoyed it- thank you! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
