Mindfulness: Finding Peace in a Frantic World

Mindfulness: Finding Peace in a Frantic World is an Android app developed by Trellisys.net in the Lifestyle category and available for free. The app is based on the international bestselling book Mindfulness: Finding Peace in a Frantic World by Oxford University’s Professor Mark Williams and Dr Danny Penman. The app offers an easy-to-follow mindfulness meditation program inspired by the life-changing bestseller, which has already helped millions change their lives.

The free version of the app includes an eight-minute Body and Breath guided meditation, narrated by Professor Mark Williams, a progress tracker that counts the number of minutes spent meditating and sessions completed, instructions for setting up your meditation practice, an introduction to the mindfulness course, and Changing Chairs – a habit releaser to help you break your daily routine. The app also provides instructions for troubleshooting – what to do if you are having trouble completing the guided meditation.

The full, easy-to-follow eight-week program is available as an in-app purchase. Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is the basis for this app and revolves around a straightforward form of mindfulness meditation, which takes just a few minutes a day for the full benefits to be revealed. MBCT has been clinically proven to be at least as effective as drugs for depression and it is recommended by the UK’s National Institute of Clinical Excellence.
