Wellness and travel – they’re not exactly two things that go well together. But don’t worry. There’s an app for that. In fact, there are many wellness and travel apps that will help you find a little peace of mind while you’re on the road. Here are just a few to try out.
Meditation and mindfulness, all in your earbuds? That’s what Calm claims to deliver. The app gives you access to more than 100 guided meditation sessions. Each one is designed to reduce anxiety and stress – feelings that travel can sometimes induce. New to meditation? No problem. There are plenty of Calm sessions that are made for beginners.
Travel takes us into unfamiliar (and sometimes unpleasant) environments. Environments, via the trendsetting record label Numero Group, gives you some new aural landscapes to explore. The “ambient sound” app features immersive field recordings, from ocean waves to birdsongs to country streams.
Time is always short when you’re on the road, whether you’re trying to make your flight on time or catch a few moments to yourself before the next conference panel. That’s why Headspace offers bite-sized meditation sessions, perfect for busy schedules. And if you’re really in need of help, the app also has “SOS” sessions. Use in case of impending meltdowns!
