Best Meditation Apps

tuneinutah · August 25, 2020 · Leave a Comment

How are you feeling?  Personally I’ve been feeling a lot of stress and anxiety lately.  It seems like so much is outside of my control.

Having a regular mindfulness practice can help!  While we love to see you at Tune In, whether in person or over Zoom, we are aware that sometimes having an app is more accessible.  I’m going to share some information about a few different apps that I have become familiar with:

Calm: This is a very popular app.  It includes new daily meditations, stories (read by famous performers), music, masterclasses and help with sleep and breath.  I use Calm when I’m still lying in bed in the morning as a ‘first thing’ meditation practice (she tells me to be in a seated position but I never am).  I also use their daily reminders for ‘gratitude’ and to track my daily moods and mindset.

Price – $69.99/year or $399.99 lifetime

Waking Up: Begins with an introductory course, with a variety of meditation lessons.  Offers daily meditations, theory and even some conversations around awareness.  Sam Harris is my main meditation guru and the practices on awareness and intention are great for me.  I also recommend his books and podcast if you’re looking for more.  Waking up is my favorite mindfulness app and I feel like the practices here have helped me improve my awareness and become a better teacher.

Price – $99.99/year, or you can email them to get access for free if that price doesn’t fit your budget.

Oak: This app is completely free!  But only available on iOS (I’ve never used it, but it comes highly recommended by Bryce, so please include him in any of your complaint correspondence).

Headspace: Includes a lot of articles you can read, daily meditations, exercises and help with sleep.  I don’t resonate with this app at all, but want you to know what else is out there.

Price – $69.99/year


Insight Timer: Includes thousands of free guided meditations, music, talks, and courses.  There is also a paid subscription that allows access to the entire library.  When I open this app I become paralyzed with too many choices, and I spend more time searching for a meditation than actually meditating.  I don’t really use it much anymore, but is a great starting point.

Price – Can do a lot for Free or $60/year

 This is just a small sampling of all that is available online, but I really hope you continue practicing mindfulness and meditation, wherever that may be!  You may find value in a variety of practices too!!  Stay ‘tuned in’ to yourself and your surroundings, and see you soon!!

Have you experienced the magic of Breathwork? 
Here are some of the benefits you can expect from this practice.

Breathing can change your blood PH (acid/alkaline) in minutes. No food, exercise or medication acts as quickly.

Reduced rate breathing can stimulate a rest and digest, parasympathetic nervous system state to help with sleep, stress, and anxiety.

Rapid, pulsed breathing stimulates a sympathetic nervous system response to increase energy, prepare for exercise, or boost the body’s natural defenses.

Diaphragmatic breathing massages the Vagus Nerve and reduces heart rate, lowers blood pressure, and reduces stress.

Severe respiratory conditions like asthma can be successfully managed by increasing CO2 levels in the blood.

TUNE IN RELAX | Yoga Nidra with @alissadbla 

This ancient practice helps you draw your consciousness inward, so you can move into a deep state of self awareness.

Yoga nidra helps shift your brain into the zone between sleeping and wakefulness. You can liken it to surfing different states of consciousness.

Brainwave studies show higher alpha and theta brainwave power in those who practice yoga nidra. 

This is a restorative practice that offers many benefits including: Reduced Stress, enhanced memory, sleep, as well as diminished anxiety and depression.

We offer this class in studio, Monday and Wednesday evenings at 8 PM.

Kundalini Fusion with @brittanelsonwellness Every Wednesday 6:30 – 7:30 pm.

Kundalini energy – the source of our personal awakening, true power, and highest, most authentic self – lies within each of us. Through things like our lifestyle choices, mindfulness practices like yoga and meditation, our thoughts and intentions, we awaken that power within us. Some have it awaken like a bolt of lightning, while others of us gradually awaken it through an on-going process of self-discovery.

10 years ago, I found Salt Lake Power Yoga, and for nearly a decade, practiced at least 5 days a week. 
Yoga transformed me, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. During Covid, I began a journey into online Kundalini classes, traditional classes and Kundalini Awakening classes through Gloria Latham. 
Quickly I felt the energy and power from Kundalini help me make shifts and choices that have transformed my life. 
I left a job and relationship that were no longer serving me, pursued yoga certifications in Kundalini Awakening, and Vinyasa yoga, and created my own wellness business.

To combine the power of both styles of yoga – the strength, flexibility, and grounding of Vinyasa, and the energizing, awakening, and cleansing of Kundalini – I’ve created Kundalini fusion. 
Classes include many of the poses that SLPY students are used to, with the repetitive movements, hand mudras, mantras, and more of a Kundalini class. 

You’ll get a great body workout, and leave sweaty, energized, stretched and strong!

Here’s what one of my students shared about Kundalini fusion:
Kundalini Fusion takes the best of both worlds – powerful movements and breathwork with power yoga. My body is buzzing for hours afterwards, and my head is crystal clear and focused. Britta is a master motivator and guides students into a flow state through this unique style of Yoga. - Nicole Cavallaro

Monday 4.11.22 8 P.M.

Over time, unresolved trauma or chronic stress causes dis-regulation of the nervous system. Breathwork helps to release of all that built up stress inside you and connect you back into the wisdom of your body. Katy guides you with circular conscious breathing to produce a cathartic emotional release. The session is paired with tantalizing music and guided NLP techniques to help break you free of the disempowered programs that run our subconscious mind.
