About this app

• 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.

Thanks to our pioneering scientific research, the Healthy Minds Program offers the first mobile mental and emotional well-being assessments. Learn about your current level of well-being and contribute to cutting-edge research on the science of well-being. Our app also integrates with Apple Health to track your mindful minutes.

Driven by Mission and Supported by Donation:
The Healthy Minds Program is made possible by our donors, who support our vision of a kinder, wiser, more compassionate world.

It's being really helpful to slow down the rhythm of my thoughts. I've learn to observe my thinking with practical techniques. Also engaging in trying to be kinder. I also read the book Born to Flourish and all together it's being life changing. I would like to have more real talking from Cort. I know that cloned voice is easier to build up the app and it works fine. It is just that a real tale once in a while along the journey would feel closer and nice to hear. Thanks Cort and Richard!

Finished my 4th session, so fairly new. I consider myself a semi-beginner in the area of practice, as I have picked up and put down meditation enough time to be borderline embarrassing. That being said, I have cracked open quite a few apps looking for the right "one". I really enjoy the layout and how the program is rolled out. Lots of info. Much more than "press play and relax" style of so many others. Perfect app for beginners. Love that active meditation is intro'd so soon too! I recommend.

this is an exceptional app and the founders and creators are world leading in creating better mental health and unity for this world. the research that has gone into it makes it even more a must for anyone. I have meditated for 30years plus now and I am still learning so much from their app. my biggest learning is that meditation is easier then you think, should not be complicated and can be incorporated into any lifestyle and daily activity.
