Sway
Sway is a meditation app that helps people meditate and move mindfully so that they can get rid of distracting thoughts.
Sway’s interface includes fuzzy pictures with calming colors, and they give straightforward instructions. For an app that’s all about the sound and feeling, they still accomplish a lot with their mobile app UI design as well.
Sway is based on ‘interactive meditation’, a new approach to meditation which shows similar results to ‘guided meditation’ but is even more effective in noisy and busy environments. Its scientific validation shows that engaging in interactive meditation daily may have long-term benefits to your attention levels.
Sway uses a new scientific approach to mental wellbeing called Interactive Meditation. Based on the ancient learnings of Tai Chi and mindfulness, Interactive Meditation uses a patented ‘attention feedback loop’ and interactive technology to detect human voluntary attention through slow, continuous and gentle movement. It has been scientifically validated to provide similar results to existing forms of modern meditation such as ‘guided meditation’, but has been proven to work better in active and noisy environments.
