I absolutely love this Aura app!!!

I absolutely love this app. I love my aura app! I have used this app since I think it first came out . I happen to have three apps and I adore all three but my number one is Aura! And why is this? Because they offer sooooo much. They even have a meditation for hot flashes! HOT FLASHES!!! They helped me when my mom passed away because they offer an AI “coach” for free, which I swear saved my life. I just couldn’t talk to anybody and this worked for me. Get the app you will not be disappointed and I’m constantly requesting things and next thing I know there is a meditation or hypnosis on what I requested . I hope that when I’m in a nursing home someday when I’m old with blue hair, I will still be able to get this app. My sanity counts on it.! . You have one life like this one. Be as happy as you can be. Beth N.

App with hypnosis, meditation and more

I came across Aura awhile back when looking for an app offering hypnosis, and wow does Aura deliver! I tested several other apps and Aura won. I wanted something with astral projection and finally found it! I listen to Aura every single night to help me fall asleep. I get to choose hypnosis, a guided meditation, a story or a podcast.
Its a wonderful app and I'm so glad I found it!

Aura + Light Within = The peace and help I was looking for.

I found Aura a few years ago while I was struggling with deep, long term, trauma-induced insomnia. It was interesting to me that certain voices had the ability to really help me relax and drift into sleep. Before Aura, I was afraid to sleep because of nightmares; but the redirection of my thoughts, in sleep stories, also eased my dream-life. I have recently dug into the Light Within podcasts during my walks. It's as if I'm taking some dear friends along with me! Listening to Steve and Daniel Lee (Aura co-founders and brothers) and their honest, sometimes quite vulnerable interviews, has opened up an entire new level of healing to me. Because of the way I'm wired, in-person therapy can be difficult for me. However, being able to pull up a podcast on Light Within, a guided meditation or sleep story has saved me from those lonely downward spirals that can occur at 3 a.m., or even during the day. Thanks to Aura I'm learning, growing and..... sleeping.

For me this is the best meditation app

For me this is the best meditation app. Not to be mistaken with a software program called Aura. But I’ve read some negative opinions here that are not about them, that’s just not correct. The attention that is obviously spend on this meditation app deserves a lot better.

And believe me, I have tried various wellknown meditation apps (without calling them out), you can think of the best wellknown and I’ve tried them. Not actually what I was looking for, focussing on streaks and complimenting teachers again and again, warning I’d loose my streak, or a theme in my face like politics, no.. I just want to meditate! So I looked further. I don’t leave reviews normally.

The Aura health (meditation) app, offers a beautiful ambiance inside the app. It feels tranquil, cosy. It’s not so much about streaks. Because I believe meditation is not about that. You are automatically drawn back to it several moments a day because it’s so nice. You can choose what kind of categories you would like to listen to when you start up the app. I accidently made a mistake and customer services helped me out in a very personal reply and effort.
I love it because I could choose a 3 minute default setting although longer is possible too, there is a filter in the app aswell. But honestly I don’t use it that often because I get great meditations suggestions for ‘today’, so there is no decision fatique. Every meditation is really nice, sometimes in other apps I’d get annoyed when it’s suddenly to loud, or the voice is too soft, e.g. This is always good. As soon as it starts I get calm. A few seconds of silence and a river sound (by choice) and then a voice is heard. Perfect.
And finally I can fall asleep with just 3 minutes instead of most apps offering only longer guided sleep meditations. It’s amazing how much difference a few minutes can make. For me, it’s worth the price.

Highly recommended for peace and calm

I have fibromyalgia. After years of trying different rheumatologists with little help or support, I took it upon myself to research ways to help myself. I eat an anti-inflammatory diet and exercise every morning - either doing yoga or strength training. This has definitely made my life easier but there's one thing I've not been able to help myself with and that's almost constant chronic itch. It is absolute hell at times. I feel like I'm losing my mind. Give me pain anyday! A team of dermatologists have tried so many different drugs and absolutely nothing has helped. So, at the end of my tether I decided to try meditation and mindfulness.

I can't pretend that it has cured me. The itch is no better. But somehow, most days, I am more able to live through it. So for that I am very grateful.

P.S. I have also been trying abundance affirmations to see if I can boost my little jewellery business 💜

I experienced a technical issue that temporarily prevented me from accessing my coaching sessions. Rose and the support team stayed engaged, kept me updated, and worked directly with their engineering team until the issue was fully resolved. I truly appreciated Rose’s patience, communication, and follow-through. I’m now reconnected with my coach and back on schedule. Thank you for the excellent customer care.

I have been very impressed with the Aura app and support personnel

I have been very impressed by the Aura app which I purchased a membership for after a one week free trial. I have used the sleep soundscapes almost nightly and have found it very helpful in improving my ability to relax and fall asleep. I have also done several meditations. There is so much more to explore and try in the app. I am really looking forward to utilizing all it has to offer. In addition, I reached out to customer support because I had been charged a higher amount for the subscription than I thought I had signed up for. I received almost an immediate response to my email and in looking at their records they discovered I had accidentally changed my subscription to a family plan. The support person corrected my plan choice mistake and processed a refund for the difference between the two plans. It was impressive how quickly the solved my query to my satisfaction and with great kindness.

Do NOT Recommend Aura Meditation APP!!!

I have been a customer for a few years and have to say my MAIN issue is with their Customer Service. Several times I've tried to get answers to my questions and instead get evasive responses. If I stated how I didn't feel valued as a customer, a lengthy prepared response would be sent with how Aura Meditation app truly values me. I just wanted an honest answer to my simple question. Not certain if they generate AI responses because they don't read English? Ellora was the CSR name given and this agent sent the strangest replies, never answering my original query. In fact, over 10 emails of communication back and forth only to get no resolution.
On a side note, I found they consistently wanted monetary donations for their LIVE meditation sessions which is very sad since you pay an upfront hefty annual subscription fee. Don't they pay their meditation teachers/instructors????!!!
They also give you a hassle when you request a refund for the automatic renewal annual fee at full price!!
Beware! There are so many better meditation apps out there. This is truly a money grab and unethical company with shady business practices. Needless to say, I cancelled my subscription and will NOT be renewing it. Would have given 0 stars if it was possible. Signed by Ellora's Disappointed Customer

Update: Aura's Customer Success Team reached out and has taken my feedback seriously. They have reviewed my concerns and provided needed staff coaching to ensure this doesn't happen again. I appreciate their kind offer and will see how the new subscription will work out and intend to update my review accordingly to help other users based on my personal experience.

Beware taking out a trial.

You sign up for a trial and then there is no way of cancelling. No membership section anywhere on the app. I emailed them and no reply. Eventually I have managed to cancel for next year through Apple but they wouldn’t refund me for this year despite the fact that you are tricked into subscribing.

I am now out of pocket by £61. It has just created stress at what is already a difficult time. I have tried to use the app but I found the voices all wrong for me and nothing that really helped me develop my meditation skills.

And now I am on their email list and they ignore the unsubscribe.

Thank you for sharing this. We’re sorry to hear about your experience and the stress it’s caused. That’s definitely not what we want for anyone using Aura.

Subscriptions and refunds for iOS are handled by Apple directly, which limits what we can do on our side, but we truly want to look into this and help however we can. We also want to make sure any email preferences are corrected.

Please email us directly at hello@aurahealth.io from the address linked to your account, and our support team will be happy to review your situation and assist you further.

I signed up for a single membership, unable to cancel trial.

I signed up for a single membership trial. I tried to contact the very illusive company to cancel my trial within the deadline, which they never notified me of as they said they would) without success after trying to call and text. They charged me $130 for a family membership. This is clearly a fraudulent company, not to be trusted. And now they’re showing the wrong name as poster of review.
