Mindfulness Meditation

Mindfulness Meditation is an open-source Android application in the Health & Fitness category. It provides a collection of guided and structured meditation audio sessions covering several approaches to mindfulness. The sessions let users select an activity based on the meditation named in its title. Its focus includes attention to the body, breathing, sounds, thoughts, walking, and silent sitting.

The collection includes Body Scan and Breath & Body sessions. It also offers Sounds & Thoughts, 3-Step Breathing Space, and Mindful Walking. Sitting Meditation is presented as an open practice, while a separate 30-minute silent sitting session uses bells to mark the meditation. These formats give users different meditation options without treating every session as the same kind of exercise.

The meditations are provided and shared with permission from Dr. Rebecca Crane, Director of the Centre for Mindfulness Research & Practice at Bangor University. That permission covers the different session formats included in the application. The range of sessions allows the application to support practices centered on physical awareness, breathing, sensory experience, movement, and quiet sitting.

Because Mindfulness Meditation is built for Android, it fits Google’s mobile platform and can be used as an Android health and fitness tool. Its open-source license identifies it as openly licensed software rather than proprietary software. MirrorNest mirrors the official Android build directly on its own storage and scans it for malware before publishing. The mirrored build is offered as a direct download in MirrorNest’s Health & Fitness category.
