Waking Up

I got to know about this app when I listen an episode from podcast Design Details. Cemre Güngör was a guest on a part of the Design Details podcast and suggested this application. By the way it was an enjoyable episode that about the transition process from design to product management. It might be worth listening especially if they’re thinking of transitioning.

I did not have much knowledge for meditation before. I wanted to try it for some time, but gave up after a few tries.

Now it’s been about 2 months, and I’m still using app. I’m not sure if it will continue or not but I’ve really enjoyed it.

I like that Sam Harris guides you during the meditation stage and guides you by adding little bits in each episode. I don’t think there will be any difficulty understanding the language, even though it is in English.

Interestingly, he discussed a quite different approach to pricing in the first episode. They point out that the annual price of $99 is too high for you and you can request a free account if that’s what you’re hesitant to use. This is a luxury price for Turkey and as they said when I requested a free account they defined it immediately.
