Navigate the Ten Percent Happier App

There are a lot of resources inside the Ten Percent Happier app! This article will help you start to explore.

There are menu buttons at the bottom of the screen for the different sections of the app:

  • Home is intended to quickly connect you with suggested content for where you are in your meditation journey, during the day, and to give you guidance and inspiration. Each day you'll find a suggested “Daily Dose” meditation, your latest Course progress, a “Weekly Wisdom” article and more!
    • All your favorited content is available at the bottom of your Home page. Tap All Favorites there.
  • Courses are a series of video lessons on a meditation topic, paired with a meditation. Our teachers have extensive training and share their answers to the most common questions meditators have, as well as some of the deeper questions.
    • Content under this tab counts towards the Meditation Streak that shows in your Profile.
    • When the video lesson ends, a guided meditation will start automatically to help you practice the idea.
    • If you'd like to do the meditation without watching the lesson, tap the word MEDITATE at the top of the screen.
    • The Course you're currently working on should show at the top of the Courses tab as well as the top of your Home screen.
  • Singles are guided meditations with no video lesson. They're sorted into folders that address modern life issues and specific kinds of meditation. Tap a folder, choose a meditation, and tap on it. Some of the Single meditations have length options. You can change the length by tapping the time button and choosing your preferred duration. When you're ready to start the meditation, tap the red circle with the play button inside it.
    • Content under this tab counts towards the Meditation Streak that shows in your Profile.
    • Favorites included in the Singles section are Singles you've favorited. All your other favorited content is available at the bottom of your Home page. Tap All Favorites there.
  • The Sleep tab has meditations for use at night or nap time and is in dark mode. There are lots of other meditations in the app that help with sleep too - but these have been recorded specifically for that purpose.
      • Content under this tab counts towards the Meditation Streak that shows in your Profile.
  • The Podcasts tab includes the Ten Percent Happier, Childproof and More than a Feeling podcasts. Subscribers can access the Ten Percent Happier podcast a week early and commercial-free. You can also listen to the subscriber-exclusive Twenty Percent Happier podcast.
    • Teacher Talks are included in this section. These are short talks on topics meditators have asked about. They’re intended to be something you can listen to while on the go.
    • Content under this tab doesn’t count towards your Streak.

Profile is where you can find support for creating and maintaining your meditation practice. Here's what you'll find on your Profile page.
