Unplug: Meditation 12+

Stop reading & DOWNLOAD! Best gift you could ever give yourself 🙃

Unplug Meditation Studio in LA has been instrumental & absolutely evolutionary in my life. For those that don't have the blessing of attending in person, their app is unique to other studios in it is JUST AS GOOD AS THE REAL THING! I have struggled with depressive episodes & anxiety throughout my life and meditation, rather than medication, has literally saved my life 10 times over. Unplug's app & desktop platform is a thing of aesthetic beauty - calming just to look at for us detail-oriented types. You can see the amount of love & care their team has poured into this app. One of the best things about the Unplug studio is the community there. Using the app since it's early conception, I have had the joy of watching a community form there as well. There are so many meditations to choose from - something for everyone! Unplug runs fantastic events through their app like the 30 day challenge I am participating in at the moment - what a brilliant way to build a regular practice. I could go on forever - truly -, but just trust me when I say that this app is my secret weapon in calming & conquering my overly active mind. What are you still reading for? DOWNLOAD :)

PS: for those of you new to meditation, those of you with the belief that you cannot meditate, or those who may have tried in the past to no avail.. do as master yoga says: "do or do not, there is no try" 🙏💕

Best meditation app

After trying other meditation apps, Unplug is hands down my favorite. The majority of the meditations are 10 minutes (longer ones are available if you want them), meaning it’s very easy to find time to do them. They all follow the same sort of format so even with different guides there’s a sense of consistency I find refreshing. They have monthly challenges where they have a theme and a guided meditation for you to do everyday to help you accomplish the themes goal for the month. All the meditations are also organized into categories so if you ever have something specific you want to achieve you just type it in the search bar and it’ll pull up what you’re looking for. With this app I have managed to achieve daily meditation for more than 21 days in a row, something I have never once been able to do. It is 100 percent worth every penny.

It’s ok

I’ve tried several meditation apps. I liked this one because it had both hypnosis and meditation, and several different categories. However with regular daily use, I’ve found that the lack of ability to minimize the app and continue to listen is a huge setback. Why would I want to keep my video on, causing light, while trying to go to sleep? Please add the option to minimize the app and continue playback. Or add audio only files instead of all videos. In no way do I need to watch someone talk or the ocean for 15 minutes. I have my eyes closed the entire time anyway. Aside from that, I do find the app and the people helpful. But it stresses me out that I can’t minimize the app, which negates the purpose of using the app for meditation. Also, why add the ability to make playlists if they don’t continuously play your videos? You have to click on them individually to play them, which flies I the face of the entire reason for a play list - so you can play the audio/video you want without having to touch your phone at all. That just seems silly. Please make it so you can play an entire playlist, not just individual videos in a playlist.
Thanks.

Hi there - We are aware of the issue where the video doesn't continue playing and are fixing it ASAP. We very much understand the need to minimize or lock your phone and continue listening to the audio. The app is designed so you can see the teacher and connect with him/her in the beginning of the meditation and then once they say to close your eyes, you don't need to keep watching. Thank you for your feedback about continuous play on the playlists - we will consider this for near future development. Please email us at support@unplug.com if you have questions or more feedback - we're always happy to help!
