The 5 Best Health and Wellness Apps of 2021

 



You know the saying: There’s an app for that. It’s so popular because, well, you really can find an app for almost everything these days. In a time of continued unprecedented stress for so many of us, health apps have never been more useful in managing and reshaping our lives. Whether you want to track your steps pedometer-style, nail a new skincare routine, develop better eating habits, or find a moment of peace, the best health apps will help you reach your goals.

1- Best Meditation App: Headspace



When you want to get into a calmer or happier mindset, this app should get a tap. It’s full of meditations that give your mental game a push in the productive direction and help gear down into a de-stressing mode. Adeeti Gupta, M.D., founder of Walk In GYN Care, says, “It takes the pain out of ‘taking the time out’ to meditate or the work out of ‘clearing your mind’ for meditation.” Because they’re all guided sessions, you just have to tune in and feel good.

3- Best Period Tracking App: Clue



This is the period tracker that makes getting in tune with your body a little easier. “In addition to the basics—like giving a relative sense of when you’re likely to ovulate and when you’ll probably get your period—Clue allows you to enter data that tracks your mood and sleep,” says Honore Lansen, M.D., a family medicine physician at One Medical. “This may help you feel better prepared to combat PMS symptoms and other cyclic fluctuations in your hormones.”

5- Best App for Runners: Runkeeper

If you’re into running and tracking how many miles you’ve racked up or how your pace has improved, this app keeps it simple and it comes with a strong community of fellow pavement pounders. It also comes with personalized training plans to fit your schedule and help you reach your goal. “I use Runkeeper to track my runs when I’m outside and log when I’ve run on the treadmill. I also love to use it to keep track of (and cheer on!) my best friend, whose account is also linked to mine,” says Darria Long Gillespie, M.D., an emergency room physician and author of Mom Hacks.
