    Does anyone ever worry about prompt injection attacks against yourself in these?

    When I was into hypnosis and NLP between one and two decades ago, I used to worry about what the instructions were once I was hypnotized. I lacked the terminology then but there days we would call these prompt injections, just against the human brain.

    I guess social engineering is another form, although that's probably more akin to a CSRF or flawed auth logic exploit.

      That is cool that it works offline. I will not use it because I don't like the voices. The free meditation app I would recommend is the Healthy Minds program[1]. I have also seen Medito recommended, but the thing that I like about the HM Program is that it is a very straight curriculum, instead of various options scattered as options.

          This is great! I've been using Headspace, but recently I get a Duolingo vibe of it. It's still good, but Healthy Minds is in other league. Thank you!

          I really like this. I tried korean language and the voice was bit off though. good work!

            Title should say "meditations" — app is not for actual dispute resolution (well, not directly).

              Medito is good Open Source alternative as well. https://meditofoundation.org/

                Offline support is underrated for meditation apps — network interruptions mid-session are the opposite of calming

                  These are audio recordings right? Could they just say so?

                    adding text to speech is a great idea, thank you!
