This week on Test Dummy, Jess attempts to lower her stress and chill out using the meditation app Headspace. Eleanor Cummins, a freelance science and technology writer (and meditation app expert), joins in to answer Jess’ questions and try sleep meditation for the first time using Calm. Meditating every day—on Headspace or Calm, for instance—is supposed to help Jess and Eleanor become more mindful, improve their sleep, lower their blood pressure, and ultimately de-stress them. Together, the duo dive into peer-reviewed research and interview experts to find the truth: Will they be able to reach a new level of calm by meditating with the same iPhones that stress them out?

I think they should’ve got to the main idea faster. It seemed as if you had a lot of not needed information before you got to the point we came for.

This finally helped convince me to check out Headspace. I enjoyed the banter and found it very informative. Thank you for being the “Test Dummies”.
