Relax Melodies: Relax Melodies is exactly what its name suggests it is – an app that provides you a massive selection of relaxing tracks that can help you de-stress. What’s more is that you can set an alarm in case you end up too relax, you doze off. It also comes with volume control.

Calm: A James P. DeVellis favorite, Calm is incredibly easy to use. Even navigating the app through its interface is designed to be hassle-free and relaxing. Calm provides a number of virtual meditation sessions that range from 3 to 25 minutes. The app both relaxes and creates an atmosphere of positivity for users. There are meditations that focus on helping a person regain self-esteem, which is only one of the many positive effects promoted by the app.

Breathe2Relax: Breathe2Relax is an app made for those who are used to going through life in blinding speed. These are the people who are simply too busy to stop. Breathe2Relax provides a simple method of breathing through your diaphragm, which can be -- trust me -- incredibly calming.

Clear your mind with these relaxation apps

Going through stress and anxiety can be overwhelming especially for adults who have lots of responsibilities that they need to face each day.  Instead of seeking outside help, sometimes we end up brushing off the negativity, which can make it worse.  Thankfully, the smartphone is no longer just a tool for productivity and entertainment.  It can now be used to help a person relax and meditate.  Below are some of my favorite relaxation apps:

Calm
This app is probably one of the most popular relaxation apps for smartphone users.  The app's easy to navigate and calming interface encourages you to take a step back.  With sessions that can last from 3 to 25 minutes, users will be able to find guided meditations that will help them build not just their inner peace but also self-esteem and positivity.  Some meditations also encourage mindfulness and forgiveness.  Relax and recharge on your own time through this app.

Relax Melodies
If you need a soundtrack to a peaceful sleep, this app will do the job for you.  You can choose from a wide selection of tracks and create a playlist.  You can adjust the volume and set up alarms so that you can wake up on time, relaxed and refreshed.

Breathe2Relax
Sometimes we're just too busy to take a step back and breathe.   Thankfully there's a breathing app like Breathe2Relax these days.  Through diaphragmatic breathing, users will be able to learn how to breathe and release their stress.  I'm sure you'll feel the calming effects after a few minutes of doing their breathing exercises.
Use your smartphone to get rid of what's weighing you down.  Meditate and breathe.  You deserve to experience peace.
