MENTAL WELLNESS

SOUL ALIVE

With meditation apps gaining popularity, this app puts a spin on the standard preloaded flows you’ll find on most offerings. Founded by former

Bachelorette contestant Luke McLeod, Soul Alive brings the connection and community you’ll find at a local yoga studio into the palm of your hands. With live-streamed weekly classes guided by Luke, Eliza or Arjanna, the app allows you to meditate and interact with your teacher and other members. If you prefer a solo flow, there’s also a content library to access at any time. soulalive.com.au

It also has a checklist and diary to keep you accountable. You can purchase the app for $4.99 monthly, with a 14-day free trial. flourishandfulfilled.com.au
