With the amount of information we have access to with just the press of a button, it’s truly an incredible time to be alive—there are so many different ways we can streamline our lives, and make things easier on ourselves.
Ever since the first smartphone launched, developers have been working on apps that can do all kinds of things, from helping us organize our time, to keeping track of important information, to getting around the city, to keeping track of how often we are working out and how to keep fit, to even figuring out what we should have and where we should go to eat.
The more information about fitness and diet that is available has caused a lot of people to become more health conscious. Below is a list of the best apps that will help you live your healthiest life.
Sleep Cycle
One of the most underrated aspects of living a healthy lifestyle is ensuring you get enough sleep. A proper sleep cycle is vital for a number of different reasons: it reduces stress, it improves cognitive function and allows you to be more alert, it improves memory function, and it helps with weight loss and maintenance.
However, sleep is often one of the most neglected aspects of people’s lives (particularly among students).
With Sleep Cycle, you can determine the optimal amount of sleep you need to function best throughout the day. Using a the microphone in your phone, sleep cycle tracks your breathing patterns and wakes you when you are just coming out of REM sleep to ensure you don’t feel tired and groggy when you wake up.
It also offers a detailed statistical break down of your sleeping patterns that you can use to determine how much sleep you should be getting each night and how long your sleep cycle (when you enter and exit REM sleep) lasts.
