How apps are evaluated

Rater review

This review represents the view of the app rater and is not an endorsement by MIND.

When the app is downloaded, a survey needs to be completed to assess the user's level of awareness, connection, insight and purpose and afterwards it introduces a long list of mindfulness exercises, which include podcasts and meditation exercises. The app has many beginner-friendly podcast-style lessons that are part of the path designed for you based on the initial assessment. The path reminds you to keep being active on the app every day, making it possible to meditate or practice mindfulness even with the busiest of schedules. The user is able to track their progress and their level of well-being with an easy-to-use user interface.

• 2024 Pick: Best Meditation App by Healthline, The New York Times Wirecutter, Vogue, and Sports Illustrated

Well-being is a skill that can be learned. We’re here to guide you along the way.

Backed by four decades of research from world-renowned neuroscientist Dr. Richard Davidson and the team at Humin (formerly Healthy Minds Innovations) & the Center for Healthy Minds at the University of Wisconsin—Madison, the Healthy Minds Program trains your mind through meditation and podcast-style lessons to develop skills for gaining focus, reducing stress, and maintaining positive social connections.

Research with the Healthy Minds App showed that just 5 minutes a day of practice leads to a 28% reduction in stress, an 18% reduction in anxiety, a 24% reduction in depression, and a 13% increase in social connection.

Featuring our scientific Awareness, Connection, Insight, and Purpose, Well-being Framework, the Healthy Minds Program is a holistic, all-encompassing meditation app that offers the best of both guided meditations and opportunities to learn. You’ll learn simple skills to enhance personal well-being, build healthy relationships, and improve communication, performance, and creativity.
