I enjoyed the meditations while I used it, although they were biased towards secular spirituality and other ideas/philosophies (but nothing is truly unbiased). The creators are genuine and honest, which is all one can really ask for. I forgot to cancel my subscription before it auto-renewed and asked for a refund, which was processed soon after mentioning my mentioning it.

Not having the option to pay monthly is so ridiculous. Immediately deleted.

A completely different way to approach mediation. If you have the sense there is something deeper at the surface of ordinary consciousness and want to explore that, this is your app.

The subscription price of your podcast went from 40 euros to 150 euros. Shame on you.

The main narrator is the most unrelaxing voice I’ve ever heard. He sounds like someone’s boss at a financial company. Why aren’t there more women narrators? It almost makes me uncomfortable how not relaxed his voice is. ADD MORE WOMEN ITS WEIRD NO ONE WANTS A MANS VOICE TELLING U TO REALX???

What is there to say about Sam? Dude has changed so many people’s lives. First he ripped Christianity from us and then he built us back up with something even better. 😂 Sam Harris, the one and only, pretty sure the guys a Buddha, not that he would admit it… Thank you Mr H. 😌
