Just had an email from Spotify offering a free headspace account with Spotify Student subscription.

Headspace = paying for something that you can do for free and should be free. Hipsters ruining everything, they ruined beards.

I didn't like Headspace. Apart from not getting on with the content, I don't think the guy has the right voice for guided meditations. I much prefer the Insight Timer - hundreds and hundreds of guided meditations and it's totally free. Also the basic version of Destressify is free, though only a few guided meditations.
If you can find Jon Kabat Zinn's guided meditations online or on a cd, they are excellent, especially the Body Scan. Also, Tara Brach has a lot of stuff online (and on the Insight Timer) and I find her meditations very good.

You could do one student membership for you (£4.99), one for your mum (£9.99) and then get this included. You'll being paying the same amount (in fact you will save 1p!)

I've done the whole process and installed the app - how do I make the app recognise I should have the premium version now? Really confused...

It produces a hole in your head so you have space to store miscellaneous items.

Wish I still had my student account. Anyone have any tips on how to get one?

I remember seeing some ways to get an NUS card in here without being a student a few weeks back. NUS lets you get student Spotify so should work.

sign up to the cheapest ecareers course for about £1.50 then you can get an NUS card and all the student discounts associated with it.

If you are a graduate, then you might be able to get an NUS Alumni card. Enter your email address (any valid email will do), then select the place you graduated from. It worked for me:
Don't know what the app is, but I got it anyways! Heat just because it's free!!

Going to disagree on the first point. Have bought countless books on meditation and mindfulness but could not relax enough to get started.
This worked for me and literally melted away my anxiety and allowed me to trully relax.
I do however agree on point number 2, hipsters did indeed ruin beards :wink:
