I prefer using a app cause when ask someone for meditate or exercise with you , and also for building a healthy and good habits they think it’s good and also start follow you but they can’t longer with you , that' s why I like apps .
Yes I kinda practice by my own…but at times it won’t work at that time uses fabulous to make my day better, my life better❤️
I use an app to remind me to meditate, however I usually just go through my own mediation process in my head - I find guided meditations distracting more than helpful. The right meditation music can be a game changer though.. something with a constant rhythm/pulsing which matches your heartrate can make all the difference to get to that next level.
