Hip-hop pioneer Fab 5 Freddy Using the StillGoing App at SXSW
I wanted to create an experience that made the practice of meditation accessible, engaging and personalized - regardless of skill level.
Washington, DC (PRWEB) April 11, 2017
StillGoing, a new meditation tech innovator, announces today the launch of StillGoing “Live” Guided Meditation, the first-ever iPhone app that connects users to real meditation coaches anytime, anywhere. This new service is available via a free download in the Apple iOS App Store.
Unlike other meditation apps currently on the market, users connect instantly to a real person, not a recording. StillGoing offers access to more than 200 top-quality meditation coaches from across North America with varied styles and techniques.
“After years of working at a high level in the corporate sector, I began to notice the toll that the daily grind was having on me,” said Starr Barbour, founder and CEO. “Meditation saved me from a life of overthinking and high stress, and I wanted to share the benefits with others. I wanted to create an experience that made the practice of meditation accessible, engaging and personalized - regardless of skill level.”
The StillGoing app accommodates the full range of users, from novices to experienced meditators. Users simply register, log in, choose a session type, select their desired coach, pay, and begin their live guided meditation session. Users can choose between two types of guided meditation experiences: one-on-one coaching or a live group class. One-on-one sessions are $20 for 15 minutes and $40 for 30 minutes of coaching, with the option of video or audio interfacing. Live group classes are $10 for 30 minutes and are real-time, pre-scheduled sessions.
StillGoing recently exhibited at the 2017 SXSW Conference where it provided on-site app demonstrations. The app was well-received by the tech community and attendees, even garnering praise from cultural icon, Fab 5 Freddy, who described it as being like “Uber for meditation.”
