What is Reddit's opinion of Meditation Assistant (Ad-free)?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

The "thing" with meditation is that there really isn't any goal or benefit. You sit to sit. That's pretty much it. Now, you can get better at it, so you could say that the brain is like a muscle.. the more you practice, the better you get at silencing your brain - this is "end state" (unless you believe in enlightenment, but personally I believe that is is similar to being able to live in that "silent brain" state all the time, regardless of what you're doing, or be able to return to it consciously without effort.)

I have a lifetime membership to HeadSpace, but I don't use it for any of my daily practice, I use it for the various packs.

For daily sits, I find that I'm basically waiting for Andy to stop prattling on, then I get into the zone once he's silent.. furthermore I find that he always pulls me back into the present when I am in the deepest state of meditation - try sitting without anything. I adore Meditation Assistant for Android, as it lets me set timers using bells/tinsha, and auto silences my device for the duration. Link is for the full version but there's a free one too.

I cycle through my senses - I like burning incense when I sit, so that's my gateway into my cycle. From there I focus on my weight on the zafu, then move to my hearing, listening to the world around me.. and this leads to listening my breath in and out... I start to "feel" that breath inside my throat, my lungs.. and that's when counting breaths starts... then, if I'm lucky and my mind quiets down, the counting stops and I just.. am. And I'm not. It's not easy to explain, but I think that's the point :)

I like and use Meditation Assistant.
