Advice and answers from the Solvance team

When, and for how long, should I meditate?

Insights finds the time of day and session length that tend to go best for you.

There's no single right time or length, but there may be one for you. Solvance learns it from how your sessions felt.

Set it up

  1. After each session, tag how it felt (Calm, Clear, Distracted…) and mark standout ones as profound (✦).
  2. Make sure each feeling has the right sign in Settings → Tags & sliders: + for good, − for hard. That's how Insights tells good sessions from hard ones.
  3. Vary things a little: a few evening sessions, a few longer ones. Insights can only compare what you've tried.
