Headspace, Apple App Store or Google Play

If you have never tried a meditation app, downloading one for your travels is a great way to give it a go. Headspace offers a particularly good introduction, with its huge library of guided mediations, breathing exercises, relaxing songs and soundscapes, which can be downloaded and listened to offline. You will need a subscription to access most content, but you can opt for a free seven-day or 14-day trial (after which you will pay

$18.99 a month or $139.99 for an annual subscription).
