Headspace meditation app

The Headspace app gives you access to short, guided meditation sessions that help you manage your stress, sleep better, find your focus, boost your creativity, and achieve more balance in your life. It’s meditation made easy—and it’s free to you and your +1.

Headspace is available in multiple languages and offers a variety of accessibility options.

How to get started

  1. Visit Adobe’s Headspace page, and enroll with your first name, last name, and Adobe email address.
  2. If you’ve previously created a Headspace account, click Yes, I have an existing account and enter your login information. If you’re new to Headspace, click No, create a new account to set up your account. Be sure to use your Adobe email when you sign up. You’ll create a unique password.
  3. Once you’ve set up your Headspace account, download the Headspace app from the App Store or Google Play.

How to add your free +1

One of the best ways to increase the likelihood that you’ll stick to a health goal—like meditating daily with the Headspace app—is to have the support of another person to keep you accountable and share the experience.

You can invite one person in your family or household to join. There is no cost to you or your +1.

  2. After logging in, click on your name in the right corner of the page.
  3. Click on Manage subscription.
