This app, considered the “#1 app for meditation and sleep” can be useful for anyone who suffers from anxiety no matter the cause. First founded in 2012, “Calm” provides guided meditation and sleep motivation for anyone who needs it.
“Calm” features meditation, sleep, and music options that can keep you on a schedule for better wellness. The app may offer a 7-day free trial. You may be billed annually for the app, but if it’s in your budget, it may be worth the try!
Smash Hit
Have you ever felt like breaking something?
This addicting, aesthetically pleasing game “Smash Hit” is one of the best games to play to help with anxiety or keep you distracted from worries.
“Smash Hit” centers around you, as the player, throwing metal balls towards glass obstacles and completing many levels. As you proceed to another level, the music and colors change. From vivid blue to red, the colors reel you in and keep you relaxed.
