I also want to just remind everybody that an app that guides meditation, also with some information and some intention setting, such as the Waking Up app from Sam Harris can be immensely beneficial.
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
I decided to use the Waking Up app. I think it's terrific, and I think one of the reasons it's terrific is that Sam includes short descriptions of what meditation is doing and what a specific meditation can do for you just prior to doing that meditation.
The Waking Up app was developed by Sam Harris, but I want to emphasize that my mention of the app is in no way a paid promotional. Rather the Waking Up app is one that I've used for some period of time now and find very, very useful.
I have no vested interest in this app but I think the waking up app by Sam Harris is fantastic I have do I I have used the introductory course which is Sam leading you through my catnip which is a logical progression of skill development from day one to three and and forward

I've used every one of the apps out there and I do find yours the best but I also realize that there's no one thing that's the best it's the way you explain things just resonates with me and it might not resonate with the next person
I would consider this an essential part of your meditation app routine
