Simple Habit Sleep, Meditation Reviews

Everyday’s a struggle for me. I deal with anxiety, stress, and I personally consider myself on the verge of being depressed. Today, I decided I should try and do something about it. I downloaded SimpleHabitSleepMeditation in hopes that it could enlighten my mood, and be my shoulder to lean on when I need a little comfort. I wasn’t disappointed when I opened SimpleHabitSleepMeditation . It’s organized, and I love the format of everything. I adore how there’s an on the go feature, and most of it is speaking, so if panic/anxiety strikes in public just put on your headphones and calm down instantly. I would LOVE to give SimpleHabitSleepMeditation 5/5 stars, because frankly I think it deserves it. But, there’s one problem. You have to spend money to buy a lot of the calming aspects of SimpleHabitSleepMeditation . Music, stories, and ASMR are all things you must purchase, as there are only 1-2 free options. I really believe SimpleHabitSleepMeditation has a lot of calming properties, and I really do like it, I just don’t think it’s right to pay a ridiculous amount of money for one application. As if I think it is worth downloading? Yes. If you need a slight bit of relaxation, or just a relaxing podcast you can listen to on your way home from work, this is SimpleHabitSleepMeditation for you. If you’re looking for an app with super reasonable prices that you find yourself wanting to open every single day for a large amount of time, I frankly wouldn’t reach for SimpleHabitSleepMeditation. But I love the concept, and I just think if this were to be fixed, I would love SimpleHabitSleepMeditation that bit more.

Out of 5, I would rate simple habit a 4.7. Being inside SimpleHabitSleepMeditation feels like a calm, warm hug. There is clear intention with the colors and pictures within SimpleHabitSleepMeditation . There is a helpful “for you” page that includes recommendations, previously listened to, and saved meditations. The meditation section changes depending on time-of-day i.e.., in the evening, suggested meditations such as ‘winding down’ or ‘end the evening with gratitude’ are displayed. The sleep page is geared toward relaxing the mind for a restful sleep. There is even a move your body page full of different workouts and yoga. SimpleHabitSleepMeditation is versatile in that it can be used for both short and long periods of time with either full or partial attention. Not only is SimpleHabitSleepMeditation extremely organized, it provides a sense of accomplishment because it can improve one’s mental and physical health. Furthermore, relationships are an essential part of the human experience, and SimpleHabitSleepMeditation is a resource to strengthen those.

What kept it from a 5 was the lack of coaching/meditations designated to social issues. SimpleHabitSleepMeditation has an extensive number of categories, many of which involve day to day problems. I was surprised there wasn’t a section regarding race or social justice issues since we are living in a time where these are pressing matters.

I’ve had Simple habit for just about a week and on the very first day every thing about it was wonderful and so easy to find. Recently i took a free questionnaire to find out what I should focus on. Once I was finished they gave me a course to follow and help my problems. It was so relaxing and helpful and isn’t just a quick one day thing. It helped me alleviate so much stress. And Im a HUGE stressor. I have anxiety, stress, serious insomnia, I make horrible scenarios at night, I have to big dreams, I always think of the worst, I make up bad I’m tense, easily angered, can easily be saddened for a long time, and can fall apart through seconds. But I try not to show it. SimpleHabitSleepMeditation has really held me together. If your looking for an enlightener or a quick briefing Simply Habit has got your back. It’s easy to use, good for all types of people, and has lots of choices. I normally don’t review apps, but Simply Habit immensely succored my problems, with immediate results. I study hard and have been pulling to have the best grades, all advanced programs (TAG Talented And Gifted) and I’ve strived to become a doctor all my life. A brain doctor. And all my life I’ve been pressured and broken down by stress and self anger. SimpleHabitSleepMeditation has applied me and motivated me and I feel so much better. Plus I have the free version but I can still do lots of stuff.

I’ve used SimpleHabitSleepMeditation 6 out of the last 7 days, some days using it multiple times throughout the day. I like it a lot so far. It’s made meditation simpler for me. The instructors’ voices are soothing and visually I like the organization and simplicity of SimpleHabitSleepMeditation . Not all of the topics apply to me, but for the topics that do apply, there isn’t a ton of variety. I end up using the same session a few times in a row until I can mentally get to a good place. Not only that, but most of the practices offered are only 5 minutes long which is another reason I’ll repeat a session but this causes me to stop meditating to restart the session. So I wish there was a way to adjust the time for guided practices that really help me. I haven’t purchased I subscription yet only because I’m not sure how often new practices are added and I’m afraid of becoming bored listening to the same sessions on repeat everyday so I’m going to wait a little bit to see. But so far I’ve found it very useful to calm my anxiety. 5-10 minutes in he morning has helped lift my mood and it’s nice to use in emergency bouts of panic or obsessive thinking!

SimpleHabitSleepMeditation is amazing and has really helped me reduce my stress, focus on my eating habits, and learn how to become a better, more confident version of myself and I would encourage others to download and continuously use SimpleHabitSleepMeditation . However, it would be nicer if instead of having to pay for everything, that only certain lessons would cost money and others would be free. It would make things a lot easier for the people who aren’t able to afford the full version, like myself, because I’m still young and am not allowed by my parents to get a job to be able to pay for things for myself and can’t ask my dad for a pricy membership like this. I’m only able to go off of the 7 day free trial as of now but would be happy if I could still use SimpleHabitSleepMeditation if the changes mentioned were applied. Even if it isn’t changed, Simple Habit is a wonderful app and helps guide your brain to a better place for all different kinds of things such as: better sleep, confidence boost, getting out of bed for a better morning, eating habits, self control, and a lot more that goes through everyone’s day-to-day routine. Thank you for reading and I hope you have a great day

If there are any meditations for emotional abuse survivors, I can’t find them by searching. It’s really upsetting for me that as an abuse survivor I can’t find an app with meditations that are not about managing petty anger or a stressful day at work, but serious damage from abuse. While the depression and anxiety meditations are partially helpful, some of the wording is just not at all geared towards people with PTSD and deep-seated anger that doesn’t have to do with poor anger management over small potatoes, but lingering wounds and consequences of the behavior of others that you couldn’t do anything about at the time. There really needs to be some meditations available in the free version for healing from emotional abuse, and dealing with PTSD— I was hoping to find that in SOS on the wheel, but nothing. I like SimpleHabitSleepMeditation otherwise, it’s pretty and well narrated, but I’m very disappointed that I can’t find an app that will help me with my specific problems, and do one or two meditations geared toward this for free as I have like no money 😢
I know that PTSD and abuse aren’t sexy and enticing words to plaster on a meditation title, and maybe the developers want to be more diplomatic with their language use, but some of us really need to feel included and like there are meditations specifically for our more serious problems.

I gave up on meditating a while ago for commons reason: because I didn’t have enough time or I didn’t prioritize it or simply because I didn’t want to even though I knew of the numerous long term benefits it could provide to my mind, body and soul. However I believe SimpleHabitSleepMeditation will allow me to incorporate meditation into my daily life and help me on my journey to a healthy mindful and happy lifestyle!

Off the bat I love how short the sessions are -only 5 minutes which anybody could EASILY find time for in their morning or daily routine. Also the sessions are not like typical ones I’ve sat through where it focuses on breathing, form, etc but instead these sessions cover various different topics that allow you to meditate but also engages the mind which for me is huge because I cannot sit still for anything and often had trouble finishing my sessions in the past. The topics covered are a wide range enough for anybody to find something that could be enjoyable/interesting for them.
Thank you for this GREAT app!!!

I used Simple Habit for about a year until I had to get a new phone. Now, keep in mind, I had been using it for FREE that entire year. Simple Habit is a great app. It has helped me through many long nights, good and bad. I highly recommend it to those of you who don’t mind paying after three free sessions. When I got my new phone, I decided to re-download Simple Habit, because why not? It helped me so much. When I downloaded it, I went through the usual; Make an account, tell us how you’re feeling, etc..etc...I usually like to listen to the Bedtime Stories, because they just make me happy. But after I had finished listening to one, about to move onto the next, I was asked to buy Premium. I have never had to purchase anything before, so I am confused as to why I have to now. It told me that since I had listened to three sessions free, In order to continue to listen to and enjoy Simple Habit, I had to pay for it. Once again, I had SimpleHabitSleepMeditation for over a year and never ran into this issue. I’m assuming it’s some sort of update, but I’m not very fond of it. I do love SimpleHabitSleepMeditation , and will continue to love it. From a distance. Once again, highly recommend SimpleHabitSleepMeditation , but I don’t if you do not like paying for things.
Stay safe, stay positive, and stay home.

I have been a dedicated user of SimpleHabitSleepMeditation in the past and have promoted it on my FB page, even to the point of being awarded several weeks of premium for free because I have 2.5k followers and they try SimpleHabitSleepMeditation ’s free trial on my recommendation.

I had a pop-up a couple of days ago asking if I wanted to try a couple of days of premium for free, after which I would be charged $95 for premium. I READ THE FINE PRINT! It said nothing about the fact that if you’ve had a free Trial in the past you can’t have one in the future. But guess what?!! THEY CHARGED MY ACCOUNT ANYWAY AND APPLE WONT REFUND ME!!! I consider this to be deceptive business practice. It’s unfortunate because I work at a Fortune 500 Company and as a member of our health and wellness committee, I am beginning a meditation education series. As part of that series I was going to run a contest by having everyone use SimpleHabitSleepMeditation to track their meditation practice for two weeks, using SimpleHabitSleepMeditation.
Integrity is important to me. SimpleHabitSleepMeditation has lost my trust and I don’t think that email is going to be an effective way to reach someone. I’m certainly not going to risk my personal reputation by promoting a company that TRICKS their customers so they can charge them for an annual membership. I’m a single Mother and this is way outside of my budget. Thanks a ton Simple Habit.

I’ve been faithfully doing at least one meditation a day for a little over two weeks. I started with the introductory multi-day “thread” and have simultaneously undertaken several other offered threads hoping that I’m weaving a sensible path. There’s an option to set an alert but the routine has become part of my inner clock; I feel like I have forgotten something or something is amiss if I have not meditated by mid-morning. And all of the meditations are really good—clearly some resonate with my state of mind more clearly than others.
The one constructive criticism of SimpleHabitSleepMeditation is that there’s the constant enticement of new meditative threads—many of which are enticing but which may disrupt the continuity of the primary thread you are currently undertaking. It might help to be able to visualize the journey in SimpleHabitSleepMeditation and be able to distinguish between the primary path of progress and the wonderful little detours that address the peripheral issues of daily life but which, I assume, are intended to be guideposts to get you back on the main path.

At first, I loved SimpleHabitSleepMeditation!! I liked the voices and meditations. When I first got SimpleHabitSleepMeditation , it let me pick what type of meditations I needed, like beginner, stress and anxiety, better sleep, etc. which was really nice. Felt like I could have a good personalized app. At first all the meditations were free and I was like FINALLY SOMETHING THAT IS FREE!! And then it said that I had to go premium to access the meditations because I used up my three free ones. 😡😠☹️I don’t like to pay for apps or anything like that, I think it is a complete waste of money unless it is something extremely important that I actually need. I was so flippin mad! I scrolled through the meditations so I could see if there were any free ones, but it seemed like there weren’t except for like two free ones in the daily meditation. ALL THE MEDITATIONS ARE LOCKED! Please change this, I know there are people like me who don’t like to pay for apps but would still like a meditation app. It is pointless if they let people do only three free ones and then just lock the entire mediations and make ppl pay! So mad! Just deleted SimpleHabitSleepMeditation . Please at least make like 1/2 of the meditations free. I would definitely get SimpleHabitSleepMeditation again if you changed this. 😕

I've used about 5 or 6 different meditation apps over the past few years, some for long stretches of time and others just a few times here and there, experimenting with new ones to see what fresh takes they offer on mindfulness, meditation, and awareness. I think SimpleHabitSleepMeditation does an awesome job of improving mindfulness.. but if you're really going to get into deeper meditation, it's a little tough with the amount of talking he does throughout the session. I would probably recommend SimpleHabitSleepMeditation as a fantastic supplement to your day - which would include meditation on its own without distraction, this being used as more of a form of "coaching" to live better each day. Purpose of SimpleHabitSleepMeditation aside, the design is slick and the various features work well/are easy to navigate. Sort of high pricing compared to the rest of the world of mindfulness apps, but the quality is there and it's worth paying for if you are truly going to make this a once a day or few times a week habit!

I have been on a 45 day streak, enjoying so many benefits of presence and gratitude with this beautifully designed and comprehensive app, (complete with sos button for stressful and frustrating moments). But I have a big issue with the it, and truly considering going with another one. There is currently no way to add a meditation done outside SimpleHabitSleepMeditation. If you do one on your own, in a class, or if I have no service, then you can’t record it, and will not keep your streak. I have had a goal to meditate daily, and have...but because I didn’t record my silent meditation with SimpleHabitSleepMeditation , my timer started over today with no way of keeping track of my progress. I truly love so much about SimpleHabitSleepMeditation, but this is frustrating to not be able to track accurately. This would be 5 stars for me, with this one request: to offer a way to add times, to keep track of meditation times all within one place. Thank you for designing and creating something so helpful and beautiful! 💜

I am a person, like many others, who often feels like I do not have time to do all the things I want or need to do.. especially if it’s just for myself. Simple Habit has made it easy for me to begin a more consistent habit of no more than 5 minutes a day. I don’t do it every single day, and I forgive myself for that, but many days I can’t justify telling myself that I do not have just 5 minutes for this. It’s a practice, of course, and I still haven’t gotten to a point where I don’t think of 87 other things while I’m practicing, but it feels very good to use SimpleHabitSleepMeditation. Little to no pressure. I don’t set reminders because I will usually just turn them off and then forget anyway. I don’t pay for the premium (yet) because I’m still going through many freebies. I looked that you can find your friends and nudge them as well. I love that I know I’ve had 32 sessions so far. Overall, 5 Stars, and I’ve already recommended SimpleHabitSleepMeditation to a number of people. Love it.

For an app about mindfulness, it doesn’t seem to practice what it preaches...
I loved SimpleHabitSleepMeditation and meditations until the constant feedback requests got annoying (goodness forbid you gave 4 stars, it didn’t let you continue without justifying...talk about biased information). Then came the glitches. Now, I contacted them several times, how SimpleHabitSleepMeditation kept crashing -in the middle of meditation- and/or when it decided not to record what you did. I use the day count as a way to monitor my progress as it establishes a good habit...only to get no response when I contact about one day which isn’t showing up, and they charge you for premium-if you haven’t yet, don’t worry, only when they want you to pay for premium will you get an email back asking for feedback...
If I could go back in time I would use another app whose policy is more aligned with meditation than making money such as insight timer (it is free...). Of course the meditations you like will be on premium, you would think they could have a 10 favorites they let you choose to keep if you want to use it without premium...
Sorry « simple » habit, but it seems insight timer is gaining a new follower (although for you it’s losing a client)

I downloaded Simple Habit and couldn’t justify the price to unlock certain features/meditations. I eventually broke down and paid for the subscription to access longer meditations for sleep. I mostly use SimpleHabitSleepMeditation to fall asleep but will sometimes use the other mediations or physical activity features. While the subscription does provide a great deal of variety and topical meditations for specific and often common life situations, they sometimes feature a voice that detracts from the relaxation, especially for sleep meditations. Some voices are too loud, nasaly, or ironically bouncy for a sleep meditation. And with one narrator, I found that he took very odd pauses. Despite his voice being soothing, his uneven and disjointed tempo made him sound robotic and disrupted the flow of sound. The ambient sounds are also lacking. But there is a great variety of nature sounds and again, I do like the option of having physical activity videos accessible. Because of these reasons, I don’t feel the subscription is worth it, but I’m happy to keep SimpleHabitSleepMeditation as a free member.

All my kids love SimpleHabitSleepMeditation, ranging from ages 2 to 8. They request it before nap or bed time. I LOVE Cory Muscara’s voice and guidance for children (and adults). They have a series for everything! Regarding kids, they have how to deal with difficult emotions, getting to sleep, handling a bully, etc. I like the adult sleep / stress ones. And how cool that the developers listened to my request of a “motivation to exercise” series! Can’t wait! Anyway, if you’re on the fence about this, think of it like this. You DESERVE and NEED a mental break. These meditation experts deserve a fair wage for their life changing services. Both of these things are accomplished when you buy the premium version. I’m not being paid to say this. I really am just happy to be a part of this Simple Habit community. At first I was hesitant because I’m a Christian and thought maybe this would be a weird spiritual thing. Not at all. In fact they even have a Christian scripture series! I just love SimpleHabitSleepMeditation.

Terrible customer service! I downloaded this program because it sias it was a free app. Turns out to use anything worthwhile you need a membership that costs $100 a year! I thought that’s ridiculous, but it offered me a free month trial. I was planning to try it out and then cancel the trial if I decided the $100 was not worth it. Alternatively I might sign up for the monthly payments if I really wanted the program. I clicked the bottom that clearly stated “Free Trial” and then as usual with any other app in order to activate the trial you must enter your password. I did so and it immediately charged $100. I contacted Apple who told me I have to talk to the company , I contacted Simple Habit and they said I have to contact Apple and they don’t deal with refunds. I contacted Apple again and they said they can’t offer a refund and this company has to tell me why their trial didn’t work.

So there you have it. Is this program worth $100? I actually don’t know because even after charging me $100 and refusing to refund it despite their app being in error it still says that I have to upgrade to use the meditations. So how about them apples?

Terrible company and not worth it.

I would have given a much higher rating but 2 things made/make SimpleHabitSleepMeditation less then great.
1. The ladies voice: I am very thankful that changed! Playing the woman’s voice at the beginning of each meditation saying “Simple Habits a daily vacation....” was so awful! But they changed that, you must be listening to your reviews, that is great!
2. Favorites tab please: I want to favorite the meditations I want to frequent. There is no way of doing this, no way of clearly tracking who you follow and the exact meditation you want to do again. So basically I start over every time I want yo target something I want to reflect on when I already found a meditation I loved. Some of my favorite meditations I can’t find again.
This really NEEDS to change or I will need to find another app. I am planning on testing a few others. But I’d stay right here, if this was possible in Simple Habits. They have a great variety of meditation instructors that are very good, hence a 3 and not a 1 or 2.

This meditation is essential for my daily life style. I am dancing 6 classes along with school work and homework plus extra projects, studying and test preparation. My mind was in 20 different places at once. Dare I say it, I as on the verge of needing the doctor to step in because of my anxiety and nervousness. Each night, crying at the homework table not just because it was hard, but my teachers didn't want to help me... however, now that I started Simple Habit, I have had not ONE panic attack, not ONE anxiety session and not ONE breakdown. So I highly recommend SimpleHabitSleepMeditation not just to adults, but to children stressed with school and need something to get them back on track. Even though not everything is unlocked, I have been using everything free and I'm doing better than ever. If you can go premium, go premium! Please take my advice and be SimpleHabitSleepMeditation and be constituent ( the morning and then in the night).

Updated: since the update today, SimpleHabitSleepMeditation won't stay open for me. I've sent a message via Facebook still waiting for a reply and left a question but no reply. I'm on a long streak of days and in monthly tracking. I don't want to lose it because of SimpleHabitSleepMeditation not working correctly and not able to obtain support from Simple Habit.

I love SimpleHabitSleepMeditation and now I'm meditating daily since I downloaded it. I love the varying lengths of time, how many different topics, I enjoy the different voices of the people that guide the meditations. I love everything about Simple Habit except one thing. The background sounds of water are very nice and calming but the screech noise that goes off is distracting and interrupts my meditation. I don't know if it is a bird screeching or a monkey. I wish there was a way to turn it off. SimpleHabitSleepMeditation is so amazing that I gave it an easy five stars even with the screech. I even bought it as a gift for two family members.

I've been having panic attacks this past year that definitely affected how I operated during the day. I also have insomnia, self doubt and day's where the negative thoughts dictate how my weeks go... I didn't want to always rely on my friends to help me out on those dark days especially when things happened at 3 or 4 am... Then i saw SimpleHabitSleepMeditation on Shark Tank and decided to check it out myself. I did a few days as a free user and within the first few days, I noticed that my thoughts became more level headed, I actually slept a little more than usual, and it had an SOS section that helped me calm down from a panic attack. I decided to pay for the premium and I am glad I did! There's provided daily sessions that has been working for me so far. I'd definitely recommend this for people who have an overactive mind and those seeking to just learn how to appreciate and just... well... people who want to breathe a breath of stress free air.

I struggle with major depression and these apps have helped a lot. It’s honestly trance like, hypnotizing in a very positive way. Everyone knows that if you listen to more positive...you are more positive and when you listen to lots of negatives...vice versa etc. Listening daily to these meditations pretty much ingrains it into you mentally and even when listening to someone say breath deeply....if I’m not really paying attention, my mind will signal to my body to automatically breathe on its on. I also recommend fasting as well if you are able to. Try to eat nothing at all or nothing the entire day until late at night to keep your mind clear and very focused. With yoga and simple habit for some guides meditation now and again it works out pretty well for battling major depression. Thank you!

UPDATE 2019

I recommend they add a playlist addition to add theraphy sessions we like and play them in a row like Apple Music playlist.
