Thanks. I’ll watch for a coupon and follow their “how to.” I appreciate the tips.

If you follow that link, all the Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics material will be free to you, regardless of whether you get a subscription. I believe the app also has a Meditation Basics course that is always free, and when they introduce new courses, some material is free. So even if you don't subscribe, there will be quite a bit of material available, especially if you follow the link in the book. Also, while subscribing usually costs $100 for a year, they send out sale coupons sometimes. Over Labor Day weekend, for example, it was 50% off,.

I arranged the 7-day trial. Apparently at the end of 7 days, I will need to subscribe. That seems different from your description. Is there something I’m misunderstanding? By the way, I read the book and found the appendix to be one of the best “how to” descriptions on meditation that I’ve read. Thanks so much.

It isn't fully accessible, but thanks to VoiceOver's ability to figure out which text goes with controls, it's usable. There are a couple of things to keep in mind: If a new meditation has been added, it's easy to double-tap and give it a try. If you're not interested in trying it, I've had best results removing the app from the app switcher and restarting it. Some meditations have different options for length. Unfortunately, these don't currently work with VoiceOver. I subscribed anyway because there are good meditations in the app. You get some for free, so you can try it out. Also, if you buy the book Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics by Dan Harris from Audible, you get a code that gives you all the meditations from the book in the app for free. It's on BARD as well, but I don't know if you get the coupon for the app. At any rate, you can really try the app before spending any money. I hope that helps.

Chris, you had included useful information in your 2015 posts. Knowing access can sometimes change and before making the significant investment, I wanted to know if Muse is still accessible. Also, is the battery charge level shown on the app? Some reviews show the app becomes less accurate as the headband battery discharges. One other curiosity: Another reviewer wrote the app could not distinguish between meditation, working puzzles or sleep. Have any had any experience with this? Thanks so much.

What did you have trouble with? I had no trouble seeing where I was in the timeline for the first 20 sessions or so. My only reason for ditching the app was acquiring actual biofeedback hardware and an app that tells me how calm, neutral or active my brain is in real time, as i try to meditate.

I have heard of two, but don't know if either of them are accessible. One is called Head Space, and the other is called Calm. What have you found that works? Thanks very much in advance!
