Mindful Meetings — Add a 2min guided meditation to any video call
Back-to-back video calls stressing you out? Give yourself (and everyone else attending your next meeting) a chance to pause by adding a 2min guided audio meditation before entering the call. Works with whatever video software you use.

It's an interesting idea, I have just a small objection to this copy text "We’ll send people to your meeting link via a short guided meditation, which they do individually." Can it be made clearer, also for not English native speakers, like me? If I did not know what your product does in advance, I would struggle to understand it :/

@adsidera1 That's a great point! Any thoughts on what it could say? Genuine question.
@adsidera1 Thats a great point actually. Would be wonderful to also have guided meditations in other languages.
This is super useful. Definitely a good way to recharge from back to back Zoom calls. Congrats on the launch!
@m_jeevahan Let us know if there's anything we could improve about it, as well as how you find using it.
After feeling the toll of back-to-back video calls ourselves at Spill, we built something to help us take a breather between meetings and arrive less stressed and more present. We've been using it loads internally, so now opening it up in beta version to the PH community! Any feedback or ideas for how we can take it further? I'd love to hear them.
Hey, a great idea, but I have one concern about the UI design of the meditation page. I'm not sure you've deliberately chose to go with a split layout, but it kind of breaks the focus during meditation with a huge countdown section. I thought promoting the circle animation into a more primary level and putting the countdown into a secondary hierarchy would work better.
Still, a great idea, will share this with my co-workers. Thank you!
Hey @ali_bozkurt thanks so much for the feedback, we hadn't considered having the circle animation as the primary focus. Let us know if you have any more thoughts.
LOVE this! Nothing fancy but really works. We need those little nudges around our daily habits and this fits in perfectly and makes you show up to meetings with more energy just when you need it!
@samharristweets Thanks Sam! Let us know if you have any notes on how we can improve!
We've also added a couple of other options, including an 'angry meditation' and an option to just chill out for 2mins
Love the concept and didn't mind providing a meeting URL to test v1 of this, but longterm I wouldn't go back and edit meeting invites to include the new Spill link. Feels like it would be better as an extension for Meet/Zoom.
Thanks for the upvotes everybody! Feedback, ideas, thoughts - we'd love to hear them all in the comments!
Love the design! Nice to have something pre-meeting to destress and come in more level headed.
@james_afino Let us know how you found it, who you sent it to, what those people said about it, and whether you have any thoughts on how we could make it better.
Smart! It reminds me of families saying grace before dinner to pause before digging in
@sophia_tupolev_luz that is so spot on! The angry meditation is exactly what goes through my mind in those situations sometimes 😈
Thanks @sophia_tupolev_luz! Haha, yes. My mum makes us pause before every family meal at Xmas, Easter etc. And you do enjoy the food more afterwards.
Love this. My team used to do guided meditation once/week when we were physically in the office together. This is a great way to continue the tradition before our video meetings. We all need more meditation in our lives!
@natmoonlv We all certainly do! How did you find using it? Who did you send it to? What did they make of it? Would you change anything?
what a wonderful way to start a meeting. Get those thinking brains online and those threat brains offline! Great idea! Certainly worth adding to the start of any video therapy session too!
A great idea. I like how we can meditate with other team members and start the meeting right. Thanks for creating this!
@wilson_dowling Woo. Let us know how you find using it, what we can do better, what feature you'd want with it, what you'd do different.
Great initiative. It's amazing what a difference pausing to ground ourselves before engaging in whatever we're about to do can make. Parish council meetings might never be the same 😉
@maeta_brown Let us know how you found it, who you sent it to, what they said etc.
A great way to clear your mind before a meeting! Ensures that everyone participating is in the right mental space for productive conversations.
@andrei_buhaiu How did you find it? Did you send it to anyone? What did *they* say? I'm so curious
You guys found a way of making such a big blast with this small feat. Congrats, it looks great!
@bogdan_ionita Thank you! Let us know how you find it, what people make of it, and whether there's anything you would add / change
Amazing idea! Meditation is what is getting me through this pandemic.
@javier_sanchez_mejorada1 Second that! Let us know how you found it, any feedback, who you sent it to and what they said. I'm dead curious to hear what people made of it.
@bilal_chaglani Thanks Bilal, let us know how you and your guests find it!
