Life doesn't always come with a pause button. There's always something pulling your attention,

someone asking for more. Most days, you're just moving through, trying to keep up. As the

to-do list gets longer, you don't always realize how much your mind is carrying. It's easy to forget

to check in with how you're really doing. But Headspace can help.

Now, Headspace works with your Apple Watch to support your mind when your body says you need it.

This Mental Health Awareness Month, tap into what your mind needs.

Now that Headspace works with Apple Watch, you can meditate on a walk,

take a breath during a meeting,

or stay calm while sitting in traffic, all without using your phone screen. And throughout your day,

Headspace sends gentle nudges to your Apple Watch with quick breathing exercises to help you relax.

A breath at the right time can change your entire day.
