Heavily Meditated
CHALLENGE
Heavily Meditated seeks to make meditation doable, helping users bridge the gap from theory to practice. The app needed to motivate users and facilitate habit creation, while allowing them to easily navigate meditation resources and track their progress.
SOLUTION
The Heavily Meditated app offers free and paid versions and allows users to set their intentions, reminders – and a meditation manifesto – to keep them on track. We leveraged the client’s stunning visual brand to create unique animated experiences.
RESULTS
Packed with extra functionalities like inspiration decks and vibe categories, audio and video, favorites and tracking, the Heavily Meditated app puts a bit of daily bliss in the pockets of its users and helps make it a habit.
Your down-to-earth meditation app for getting high on life
Heavily Meditated is author and wellness whizz Caitlin Cady’s new guided meditation app, designed to help users turn meditation into a habit that sticks, kick stress to the curb, and reap all the benefits of a happier, calmer, and more intentional life.
Heavily Meditated’s unique library of meditations suits all moods and attitudes. Users select meditations based on their favorite technique, length of time, or vibe. “Vibes” include Rise & Shine, Self-Love, Funk Busters, Clear & Focused, Positive & Present, Bedtime Bliss, and more. Busy minds and busy lives are welcome, with meditations ranging from five to twenty minutes.

LIFESTYLE
The app’s fun features inspire users to keep coming back for their daily dose. Features include an Inspo Deck (for hits of soulful inspiration), Daily Intentions (to carry good vibes through each day), Meditation Reminders (for those of us who need an extra nudge), and a Meditation Tracker (for all the goal diggers in the house).
Meanwhile, a beautiful, sleek, and user-friendly design pairs with vibrant and playful album covers to keep the high vibes going.
Caitlin is on a mission to make meditation more accessible to people worldwide, so Heavily Meditated donates a portion of its profits every quarter to support organizations that provide mindfulness, meditation and yoga programming, education, and tools to Indigenous communities, historically underserved youth, and incarcerated folks.
“The peace, calm, and joy you seek are all inside of you, waiting to be rediscovered,” says Caitlin. “Meditation helps you do just that.”
Heavily Meditated includes unlimited access to ten free meditations. To access the entire library and suite of features, users can upgrade to a paid subscription.
