Meditating for gold stars?
Initially I like this app- until I realized it rewards users with a virtual sticker for achieving meditation milestones such as completing a streak of 3. While it encourages meditation it creates a "gold sticker" which is incongruent with the whole purpose of the meditation itself. I found myself checking "progress" on my sticker collection instead of checking in with my emotions daily. I also purchased the kd lang pack- which was almost identical to the free meditation and when I complained they denied that they were the same. Within one of the meditations itself it mentions Doctors Without Borders. While I like the organization I believe it is unethical to use a tool like this to promote any kind of organization, plus using and promoting a celebrity... I think these people are missing the point. Maybe the makers of this app should try meditating for peace of mind instead of gold stars themselves before trying to be an example to others.
