Quiet
My internal chatterbox is particularly active these past few weeks. Thankfully, I have developed some fruitful strategies for managing the glut of unwanted messages.
Opening an email from Spirituality & Health, (Sept/Oct 2013) not only reminded me to continue being diligent in managing my internal chatterbox, but listed five Apps to help quiet the mind. To wit:
At Ease. Guided breathing exercises aim to ease anxiety, a journaling option allows you to track how well each session reduces stress. $2.99 both iPhone and Android at meditationoasis.com/smartphone-apps.
Optimism. This action plan app helps you develop and monitor strategies for improving overall mood and monitoring symptoms of conditions like depression and anxiety. Free for iPhone and Android at findingoptimism.com.
Relaxing Nature Sounds. This popular app features 70 relaxing sounds to help with meditation, sleep, or physiotherapy. 99 cents for iPhone at rtstudio.net/ProductsRelaxation.html.
Chakra Meditation. A beautiful interactive animation allows you to follow along visually while listening to a calming narration. $2.99 for iPhone or Android at saagara.com.
Relax and Sleep Well by Glenn Harrold. Narrated by the well-known author, this self-hypnosis app helps to alleviate stress and soothe you to sleep. Free for iPhone at i-mobilize.com/relax-sleep-well-by-glenn-harrold.
