Waking Up raised my mental fitness by teaching me the practice of meditation.
If you fell out of practice, Waking Up v3.0 is out with a bunch of enhancements to bring you back in:
- After months of listening to member feedback and reimagining a simpler, cleaner app experience, we’re excited to introduce a new way to navigate Waking Up.
- The Explore tab is where you’ll find Practice, Theory, and Life, plus conversations and Q&As—and a more clearly organized library.
- Home is far more streamlined, and still where you’ll find your Daily Meditation, Reflections, and Continue Listening.
- My Library is now a tap away. And everything else you need is in More.
I am an active user since 2019, tried a bunch of other meditation apps but never considered leaving Waking Up - it is just too good.
The way Sam gives hints without just telling you what the major insight (if you meditate you probably know what I mean) should be is really unique.
Grats on the launch!
I will probably give this a shot because I've been meaning to be more mindful, though the phrasing of "Operating System for your mind" feels pretty hokey to me. What sets you apart from competitors in this space? What benefit is there of these specific apps over content I already have access to on Spotify?
@jack_michalak the content from Waking Up is both well produced and well constructed. There's plenty of free content out there, but Waking Up has a unique and defensible perspective when it comes to both the theory and the practice of extended meditation. It's kind of like asking: "Why should I pay more for a Michelin star restaurant when I can get my calories from McDonalds?"
Oh wow this is truly an amazing product in the wellness space. It seems like an all in one platform. Looking forward to trying it out! Congratulations on the launch!
Waking Up sounds like a game-changer for mental fitness and meditation practice! 🎉 The focus on user feedback really shows the commitment to enhancing the app experience, and I can't wait to dive into the new Explore tab. It’s great to see such a streamlined design and organization—sounds like a perfect way to help people get back on track with their meditation journey.
I’m particularly excited about the Q&As and conversations; having that community aspect adds so much value. Kudos to the team for continuously improving and making meditation more accessible for everyone! Can’t wait to see how Waking Up will elevate my daily routine. Keep up the amazing work, Makers!
