MIR SMART ONE
REQUIRES THE PEAK FLOWMETER SMART ONE ™
MIR SMART ONE is a revolutionary app - integrated with Apple’s app Healt- that communicates via Bluetooth Low Energy with a Peak Flowmeter (SMART ONE ™) for self-care respiratory management.
The SMART ONE system (app + device) measures FEV1 and PEF using the same exact technology currently used in the most advanced pulmonary labs worldwide.
The app makes the device start the PEAK FLOW and FEV1 measurement.
HEADSPACE
As if the delightful illustrations on the Headspace app aren’t enough of a sell, the guided courses and quick meditations should do the trick. The team have branded Headspace as “your gym membership for the mind” and believe that your mind is a muscle that deserves just as much attention as your biceps. Beyond practicing silencing your rapid thoughts while sitting with your legs crossed, the app offers sleep music and soundscapes to help you get to sleep.
Cost: $13 monthly with a seven-day free trial, or $70 annually with a two-week free trial
CALM
Just as the name of this meditation app states, Calm is a portal to peace of mind. Once you open the app, which has been downloaded more than 50 million times, you're invited to complete the Daily Calm or locate a meditation more specific to soothing what you have going on: anxiety, stress, a desire to break bad habits, etc. Further, there are walking meditations, body scans, masterclasses, and Sleep Stories—one of which comes courtesy of Matthew McConaughey. Nothing like letting his Southern drawl tuck you in at night.
Cost: $70 annually with a seven-day free trial

Enter the unicorn of gratis meditation apps: Insight Timer. A multifaceted gateway to more than 30,000 guided sessions that tap into every emotion rattling your nerves, it also offers relaxing music tracks, a section for kids, and therapeutic pep talks from the likes of Indian yogi Sadhguru and psychotherapist Anthony DeMello.
