Sleep Cycle

Improved fitness isn’t the only key to looking better naked. How about getting rid of those bags under your eyes? The Sleep Cycle App moniters your sleep patterns to help you assess how much sleep you get on average, what time you fall asleep and when you get your best sleep. You can set an alarm to wake you up during a certain time frame, but it always wakes you up when you are in the lightest phase of you sleep cycle so that you wake up in a rested and relaxed state as opposed to waking up abruptly.

Free, available for Apple and Android

Pedometer++

To manage you weight, studies suggest that you should walk approximately 10,000 steps a day. If you don’t like the appearance of fitness bands or you just don’t like the price tag, then Pedometer++ makes counting to 10,000 easy by doing it for you.

Free available for Apple.

Stress shows on your face and it also leads to premature aging. And since you can’t take a weekend getaway every weekend, learning to breathe and re-center is crucial. Thanks to Box Breathing you can learn to slow your breathing and channel your calm, heighten your attention and ability to focus as well as enhance your arousal. Who knew focusing on breathing and tapping into your unconscious response could be so beneficial?
