Let’s face it, the last few years have been anxiety inducing for even the most calm, cool, and collected among us! When it comes to reducing stress and anxiety, everyone from the very old to the very young can benefit from another tool in their belt. Experts recommend meditation, yoga, deep breathing, and calming music as good ways to illicit a calming response. Another vital aspect to mental well-being is getting enough sleep through practices that include good sleep hygiene. Luckily there are apps for all of these activities! Below find some of the best apps to combat anxiety and reduce stress—for both students and adults.
