Beware of unauthorized renewal of subscriptionUsed the free version and thought the subscription would be better. Used the subscription and used it a handful of times, didn’t find it much better than the free version, so wrote it off as a bad purchase. Maybe used the app a couple of times in the last 6 months. Then was charged on my credit c…

Since being bought out by $4B AI health tech company Sword Health, they’ve gutted the core focus on mindfulness and replaced it with a flood of 4-minute snippet personal affirmations.

Les contenus sont forcément avec le téléphone en wifi ou 4G dommage vraiment .. car pas envie d’écouter des s…
Literally life changing appI think mindfulness and breathing training are underrated. Headspace is now my morning routine and an essential part of my life. I can’t thank the team enough to bring such powerful and updated tool to the world. I hope Andy is doing ok! My favorite headspace person please take care of yourself.
