Headspace

Headspace is a meditation and mindfulness app co-founded by Andy Puddicombe, a former Tibetan Buddhist monk, and Rich Pierson. The company is based in the United States and operates the Headspace app on iOS, Android, and web, alongside Headspace Health, which offers mental health coaching, therapy, and psychiatry as separate services.

The app’s core library covers guided meditation, sleep content, mindful movement, and focus music, with sessions narrated primarily by Andy Puddicombe. Andy draws on a decade of monastic training in the Himalayas and is the author of three books published in 25 countries and 10 languages; his TED Talk on 10 mindful minutes has introduced millions to the practice.

Headspace serves individual members, families, students, teens, educators, and more than 4,000 workplaces worldwide through its B2B program. Content ranges from short beginner sessions to longer themed courses, with personalization powered by its Ebb AI companion.

    Headspace provides me with … a connection to myself, and a disconnection from negative thoughts, feelings, and sensations.

    I now go to a place where I was previously afraid to go — inward, to myself.

    Headspace … has allowed me to simply be present with my patients, and not stuck in my emotions.
