Headspace is one of the most popular meditation apps. If you’re a beginner and want to develop a regular meditation practice, I highly recommend it. But once you’re adept, I would suggest exploring other meditation methods as well. Alternative: InsightTimer (my teacher profile)

Health Optimization Tools
While it is important to eat healthy whole foods, supplements can greatly help. Stay healthy and with plant-based superfoods, protein powders and supplements. Sunwarrior products are authentic, sustainable, organic and non-GMO. Alternative: Onnit
While there are a lot of calorie-tracking apps out there, Cronometer is by far my favorite one. Besides tracking your macronutrient profile, it gives you details about micronutrients so you can find out if you’re eating a nutrient-rich diet. You may be surprised to find out the deficiencies you can fix.
Another sleep hack is sleeping in complete darkness. A sleep mask makes the world of a difference. And when it comes to comfort and design, Manta Sleep Mask does the job so well and it’s also so damn comfy.
If you work on a computer, you NEED this. The blue light that comes out from the screen not only harms your vision, it also interrupts your circadian rhythm which gives rise to sleep problems. Then, sleep problems give rise to chronic diseases you want to stay miles away from. So trust me on this and get IRIS. Alternatives: f.lux, Twilight (for android) and driftTV (for TV).

Physical books occupy a lot of space and weight. I love reading physical books but I don’t always buy them because there’s just so many books out there. The solution is to get a Kindle Paperwhite that is like your personal library without the hassle of owning physical books. I love that the Kindle’s screen has no glare, so it acts like paper.
If you want to save all your highlights from ebooks and articles you read, Readwise is the #1 tool to revisit your highlights in one place so you don’t have to go through each book or article separately.
