Meditation Calm Phone App Review

Hey Everyone so since I have Anxiety and Depression I needed something to help me become calm and have some peace to my self so I downloaded the Calm phone app which teaches you about meditation and how to do it daily. This is my own view on how I like the Calm app..... The app is free to download but you only have limited access to certain things. If you pay the monthly fee then you will have more access to the app. I just use it for free because I really dont need all of the content right now so it works for me.

Here is just a overview of what the app is.

When you open the app here is what it looks like. You have music, meditation and sleep. You can also change the scene if you want.

So for music you have three choices and this is the first one. I havent tried out the music part yet as it was just added to the app not to long ago.

The next two are Relax and Sleep music.

When you open the meditation here is what it looks like. What you get for free is 7 days of Calm (intro to Meditation), Daily calm highlights, Breathing, and Timed meditation.

You get 7 days of Calm for free which is a intro into Meditation which teaches you how to meditate and how to keep doing it daily. It teaches you to let go of the past and just focus on the present.

You also get timed meditation for free which if you dont want to listen to someone talk while you meditate you can use this to set the amount of time you want to meditate for.

 Here is what the side bar looks like in the app. You can also set up mindfulness reminders to remind you to meditate.

Here is what the sleep part looks like in the app. Its sleep stories that you can listen to at bed time to help you sleep.

You also get scenes that you can change up when you want to. I currently have fireplace scene because I love the way it looks and you also get the sound to go with it. You can hear the fire crackle or the lake waves or a thunderstorm.

Last thing I want to talk about is the monthly fee you have to pay. Again its free to download but you can only use a limited amount of stuff on it.













So here is my personal view on the Meditation Calm phone app. It really helps me with meditation and it helps me calm down and just let go of all the stress.

Life Update: Im Back! Chloe is in Pre K and Job Hunting

Hey everyone so I know its been a while since I last posted on my blog.... I wanted to tell yall Im back! Everything has been good I just needed a break from my blog for a little bit.

I have been unemployed still but I am now looking for a job since my daughter is in school now. Yes Chloe is in Pre K now! She is a big girl and not my baby anymore. She does a full day of Pre K 8am to 3:30pm Monday thru Friday. She is doing so well that she has been learning to even write her own name now. So while Chloe is in school I plan to get a job working in Child Care. Chloe is 4 years old now!

I have been putting in applications since August but no luck so far. I just did two applications this week and should hear from them very soon.

So I just wanted to do a quick update and let you know that I am back to blogging!

Recollections Zipper Planner Setup! 2017

Hey Everyone! Today I am sharing with you how I setup my zipper planner! Again this is a Recollections Zipper Planner from Micheal's. I plan to use this as my work/productivity planner.

This is what the cover looks like......

So first off I decided to add a shaker card that I made to the very front of the planner. I added sticky notes and some work related stickers.

This is the very first page and all I did was add my name and a donuts sticker!

Since my planner is undated I started using it in February. All I did here was add this floral quote project life card.

This is the undated monthly calendar page. I added the numbers and decorated it with stickers from Dollar Tree.

I started using this planner the week of Valentine's so here is my Valentine's spread. I wrote in the dates, added stickers from Dollar Tree and added a project life card.

Here is another week I did and I decorated it with a owl theme.

At the back of the planner I added a pouch that I got from Micheal's and added some stickers that I plan to only use for this planner.













Love,
CES <3
