Calm App Premium

Calm is Headspace's main competitor, and it wins on sleep content. The Sleep Stories — adult bedtime stories narrated by celebrities like Matthew McConaughey, Harry Styles, and Laura Dern — are a stroke of genius. They genuinely help you fall asleep. The meditation library is extensive: daily calm (10-minute guided meditation that changes every day), courses on specific topics, and unguided timers for experienced meditators. The music section has hours of focus, relaxation, and sleep compositions. The body scan and breathing exercises are particularly good for anxiety. The interface is beautiful and calming (unsurprisingly). At $69.99/year, it's a small price for better sleep and lower stress. If you struggle with falling asleep, start here.
