These audio cues are great because they’re guiding you in real time without becoming a distraction themselves. If you become completely focused, a bird will chirp in the background. The soundscape will become loud and restless if you become distracted, and will become calm if you become calm. So for example, in the mind meditation, the intent is to calm your mind and focus on your breath. These soundscapes change according to your vitals, so by listening to the audio cues, you can get a sense of what’s going on with your meditation. Instead of getting a narrated meditation, Muse plays back a computer-generated soundscape. There are meditations for the mind, heart, breath, and body, and they all work similarly. So how does it work? You put the Muse on your head, placing the sensors across your forehead and behind your ears, put on headphones, and start a meditation in the app. If you remember the Zeo, it has a similar form factor. The Muse 2 is strictly for meditating, while the Muse S has some extra features for Sleep. The Muse comes in 2 form factors, there’s the Muse 2 and the Muse S (which is what I used and will be basing this review on). The Muse is a headband that reads various vitals, including brain activity, heart rate, and movement, to tell you how your meditation is going in real time. If you’re anything like me, you may have been meditating with one of those audio only meditation apps and stopped to ask yourselfĪs great as those audio only apps are, they’re missing something really important that other fitness and wellness tech has: they don’t give any feedbackĮnter the Muse, the Brain-Sensing Headband.
