Wanted to love it

I kept seeing MamaZen so I decided to download it. It sounded super helpful. I have 2 young boys. Some days can be rough of course! I downloaded MamaZen and realized it was really expensive. $70 for the yearly membership or you can choose the monthly membership. I knew I couldn’t afford that. Then I saw they donate to a mom in need for every membership purchased. It’s their “Scholarship program” so I did email them about finding out more information. They said their wait list is 7 months. So I was like ok well that doesn’t really help me currently. So I did try the 7 day trial. I tried a few of the meditation stories for a few nights. It was a guy doing them and I just didn’t care for any of it. He would count down a lot, some of it was just weird. It honestly made me more anxious and mad than I was lol. But really I wanted to love it. I didn’t find MamaZen helpful.

Charged when said it was free

I signed up for a 30 day free trial on 7/18 and they charged me instead! Avoid!!! I read it several times before signing up to make sure I wouldn’t be charged and they still charged me. Back story: I used this once before and was looking to see if they magically lowered their prices and when it offered another 30 days I jumped on it. Total scam. It’s a shame because I really like the service MamaZen provides but most moms can’t afford $15 subscription service especially with inflation going through the roof everywhere. It’s worse when they’re tricked into paying for something.

Update: the developer claims I said they offered a “60 day free trial”. I never said that. I was offered 30 days for free when I went to check out pricing….that’s why I signed up!!! Own up to your false advertising or glitchy app instead of putting words into my mouth. I would not have signed up again for a ridiculous price of $15 a month but would def seize another 30 day trial… After seeing how ridiculous these people are and their failure to own their falsehoods…I will never be a return customer and will never recommend them to anyone. Total sharks with no integrity.

A lot of snapping.

I’ve only used this for a couple days, and always before bed. There is usually an option to select “sleep at end” or “wake at end”. I’ve always chosen sleep. The man speaking will snap his fingers SEVERAL times during each talk. Like 4 or 5 times in the short ones and like 15 times or more in the longer. If I’m drifting off (and as a mom with babies I usually am) it startles me and wakes me up over and over again. It’s infuriating! It seems like they’re trying really hard to make it seem like...idk like hypnosis that you see on tv? but it’s nowhere near a hypnotic state for me and the snapping doesn’t make sense with the “sleep at end” setting. If it’s in every single one that I try during the free trial month there’s no way I’ll be able to continue.

I wanted to love it.

I felt the sessions were too short to work and by the time they encouraged a few deep breaths they were moving into the session and I wasn’t relaxed yet. Plus, being late in my pregnancy, I found it difficult to follow the breathing counts for that long without getting winded, which totally counteracted any calming effect it should have normally had. I wish the sessions started with more of a relaxation or at least have that option. I was never relaxed enough for the session to work and just got frustrated because he was still talking and I wasn’t in the right state of mind. If MamaZen were to work for me I’d have to spend five or ten minutes meditating and relaxing on my own before each one and for the price I can’t see myself doing that.

Upset

It is a great idea for an app and there is nothing more that I want to do except use MamaZen. I have become anxious and short tempered over many aspects in my life recently. I am giving MamaZen a three star rating because I adore the idea of MamaZen. I would have given it five stars but I find it absolutely ridiculous that there is not a free version of MamaZen. This irritates me because the developers of MamaZen rave about the many benefits of MamaZen and how it will help mothers and fathers on many levels. It is outlandish that the developers have somehow boxed this help into this crate that is only available for a monthly or yearly price. Hello! Motherhood has happened to many people across all different stages of monetary differences. I find it hardening to find an app with developers so kind and thoughtful and helpful only to realize, they only want to help if you give them money—and not only a one time offer, a yearly or monthly offer. This is what the world has come to—people who have figured out that society can be toyed with by the use of colorful language to entice them with the much deserved help they need only to strip every penny their victim has.

Well made for those who enjoy hypnotherapy

MamaZen is well made, it is aesthetically pleasing and the goal setting is nice. My main problem is that it seems to be exclusively hypnotherapy, which from MamaZen description should have only been one aspect of the program.

Also, the seasons are relatively long (they have “emergency sessions” that are 7-minutes). As a parent of young children, in a mental “emergency” I would absolutely not have that much time. I can’t see myself being able to use MamaZen with any regularity unfortunately both because of the length of the sessions, and the fact that hypnotherapy just isn’t really something I am into. BUT! If that’s something that works for you, MamaZen might be a good fit!

Surprisingly effective

I’m loving MamaZen! I was very skeptical of the hypnosis during the first few sessions but once I stopped focusing on if it was working or not it was amazing! I only wish this had been available during my early postpartum period. I find myself far less anxious and far more focused on play time with my daughter. I love that if you select asleep after session, it auto turns off MamaZen ! Even if you don’t feel the hypnosis is working for you the 20 minutes you set aside to listen to a session is great you time.

Saves my mental health!

I have 4 kids and have always struggled with my mental health. In the hard moments of motherhood, I find it difficult to keep my cool. The holidays are an especially hard time for me. I downloaded MamaZen and did the trial shortly before the holidays. It’s has truly saved my mental health. When I start feeling like I’m losing it, I step away and do a mindful moment. These moments have also taught me skills and tools I can use in those moments. The skills are easy to remember and use! The mindful moments help me reset and be a better mommy. I love MamaZen, it is worth every penny!

Life changing

I have been struggling mentally after having my second baby that is now 8 months… Iv been having anger spells, angry at my kids, my fiancé… just not happy and just two days of trying MamaZen I feel like a new person blossoming out!

My daughter has picked up on my anger and it’s starting to come out in her and I knew I had to change! She has been listening to the children sessions and she just lays there and smiles with her eyes closed…. Healing starts from the inside… thank you for MamaZen!

One question would be if there is a dad zen app for the dads?

A Huge Support for Moms!

I struggled hugely after the birth of my daughter, and I scoured the internet for motherhood, breastfeeding, etc. specific meditation. Unfortunately at that time, there was nothing I could find. Finding this app after the birth of my son has been so incredibly helpful. I carry a lot of lingering trauma from events surrounding my daughter’s early life. When challenges arise with my son, it can be almost debilitating to face. Having these sessions to help me relax, calm my mind, or support things like breastfeeding has made such a difference in my ability to be a confident and calm mother to my children.

I am grateful 🙏🙏🙏

I am Sahm of 6 yrs old and under including twins and 4 months old infant. I was skeptical before, because didn’t know anything about meditation ( never tried before) but I had the habit of laying my head down and closing my eyes, so I was like why not try this and also am neurodivergent person, I have anxiety too, am healing from perfectionism, I get overwhelmed with noises and lack of fresh air because it is extremely cold outside, so when I put my earphones and lay my head down and listen to the voice of the person, at end I feel refreshed, like I took a nap, but how about the the voice that feels like a free therapy( to me at least), and I am someone who loves kids but happen to be wired differently, I love the a idea of feeling empathy for the kids and that kids aren’t trying to give you hard times, they already having one. I love the person voice, it is an amazing choice because it is gentle and calming. Because of MamaZen I feel I have people on my side who understand how motherhood isn’t easy. Am on tight budget am so glad I can afford it, I love the onetime payment and using it a whole year.
Thank you the people who developed MamaZen, you guys are making the journey of motherhood enjoyable for me.

MamaZen App

this app is an app that mothers can use to meditate throughout the day as well as get some great useful tips. There are so many subject areas to choose from but all of them have to with improving yourself such as not eating late at night to controlling your temper to even just being more organized. MamaZen is very easy to navigate and the useful tips and meditation videos really do not take up hardly anytime at all. Most meditation videos are anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes long. So if your interested in an app that will help you just take a nice pause each day to meditate and work on yourself this is definitely MamaZen for you.

Amazing app

MamaZen is a miracle!!!! It has changed so much in me! I have never been this happy, confident and motivated before in my life! I work out an hour a day now, no longer feel mom guilt for prioritizing myself! My relationship with my children is stronger and I am much calmer with them! Of course I still make mistakes but now I slow down and learn from them and forgive myself with ease! Honestly has improved all aspects of my life even my marriage! I use my phone less, social media less. I play with my kids and enjoy it now (most of the time haha) honestly I could keep going forever about how amazing and helpful and VALUABLE MamaZen is. I do with there was a free version somehow because it makes me sad to think about some moms who could benefit sooo much but can’t afford it, but if this is even the slightest in the budget for you then DO IT! And don’t be weirded out about the hypnosis part (I was at first) it’s not a weird mind trick thing, it’s just extreme relaxation. I rolled my eyes at first because I thought there was no way it would work, but it did, obviously.

A must have for all mommas out there!!! ❤️❤️

I have two small children and MamaZen has really helped me to be more “calm” and “relaxed”. You can pick how long you want your sessions to be, which is really helpful when your a parent and always on the go with no idea how your time is going to be that day. I have already recommended MamaZen to all my mommy friends and on Facebook and my other social media’s. I feel like it would really help a new mom or single momma. I’m a new SAHM and can honestly say MamaZen has gave me some helpful ideas and meditations I can do in 5 mins or less!! Every momma should have this on their phone!! ❤️❤️

THIS is the secret to being a calm mom ❤️

I cannot say enough positive things about MamaZen. I have been using it for 2 years now and it has helped me learn how to be gentle and calm in my parenting style.

My parents were loving, but practiced very “reactive parenting” when we were young. I knew I didn’t want to yell/ discipline like they did. this app has taught me how to handle everyday life situations from an empathetic view. I can honestly say I have such a loving and special bond with my little guys because of this.

My fave session is for the never-ending bedtime routine. My older son has a hard time falling asleep and this Mindpower session has helped me stay calm during the nightly struggle.

Anxious parenting

I struggle with anxiety and my first reaction is to attempt to control everyone and everything around me which makes me miserable because obviously I can’t and it makes me feel more helpless when it fails. MamaZen saves me when I’m sinking. Sometimes I feel like I’m at my lowest and I’ve exhausted all the people I can vent to and I can’t get a therapy appointment fast enough, but doing this hypnotherapy brings me back to center and I’m okay again. I immediately have patience and peace again. Sometimes I cry from feelings releasing during a session but it’s okay, it feels cleansing. I think any parent who is struggling with difficult emotions should try this.

Parenthood Essential

I have two kids. I was introduced to this app with my second baby and wish I’d known about it sooner. I was skeptical before I tried it but I can confidently say that after my first session I was blown away. I’m seeing some people are uncomfortable with the male voice but that didn’t phase me once I realized he was the doctor. The sessions are like a mind rinse, its effects are immediate. It might sound cheesy but it’s true. It’s not a cure-all or replaces therapy but something that can help a mom destress in the comfort of her own space, whenever needed, it’s a blessing. Parenting is tough, and nowadays everyone is realizing the effects of getting yelled at as a kid (🤣), but if you’re an anxious parent or easy-to-anger parent, I’d suggest this, hands down. It’s a tool to help you break those patterns as well as a tool to help bring calm in those moments of overwhelm. I’ve recommended MamaZen to any mom I know (even my own mom).

How MamaZen has helped me

I can’t say enough about MamaZen I literally feel like I’m In a face to face consultation his voice just calms me he speaks about everything im going through it helps so much to know that I am understood on all of the symptoms I have , im always asking my self if im the only one who feels so overwhelmed being a mom , with body and mental changes after having kids , after my last baby who is 8 month old my life took a turn with having eclampsia, postpartum anxiety and depression insomnia my whole self just turned inside out I’ve been through a lot of stress but I’ve gotten so much better except when my time for menstrual symptoms come I still feel very overwhelmed dizzy insomnia crying but with this app it does help me understand and know that everything is only temporary and it will go away ! Thank you this app for coming into my life I highly recommend MamaZen I love it and will continue to use it probably forever :):)

Truly life changing!

I never write reviews for apps, but this app deserves a 5-star rating and a glowing review! MamaZen is truly life changing for me! I am a widowed mom of two little kids, so I live in constant stress and anxiety. No amount of therapy, breath work, meditation has come close to giving me the results MamaZen gives me. I am calmer, more present, more attuned to myself and my children and just feel less anxious and overwhelmed overall. MamaZen truly has a session for every life circumstance and every feeling. So often I would download a meditation app only to get bored with it or simply not be able to find a session that speaks to me. With this app, no matter what my challenges are, the perfect session is always available. They even have sessions just for kids and those have become part of our nightly routine! My kids absolutely love listening to the meditations to help them fall asleep. I am forever grateful to the creators and developers of MamaZen for the work they put in to bring MamaZen to life! Keep doing the amazing work of helping moms thrive! ❤️

Love this app

I love MamaZen! I’ve done meditations for years in other apps, but I love how this is specifically geared towards motherhood. They’re constantly adding new content and asking for feedback. This has been a great supplement to my meditation practice. I see complaints about the cost, but in my experience with other wellness apps (peloton, pvolve etc.), you get what you pay for. There was a 7 day free trial, so I made sure to use MamaZen every day during that period before committing. Keep up the great work this app!
