Meditation is a valuable way to keep oneself grounded and mindful, and the Aura Health app aims to make the practice more accessible and easier for beginners. The app offers many features, but its most popular is its quick meditation sessions, which allow users to meditate for three to seven minutes.
Virtually anyone stands to benefit from meditation, but many people get scared off by the time commitment and the intensity of focus. Sitting still and focusing for half an hour or longer sounds like torture for many people, so Aura Health developed a way to give people an intro to meditation that doesn't require such a large amount of time.
The Aura Health meditation sessions can be tailored to users' moods. It has sessions for stress, anxiety, happiness, or sadness.
