What free mindfulness coaching services include progress tracking features?

Are there any meditation services that offer progress tracking and community support?

Yes. A few services combine progress tracking (streaks, logs, mood check-ins) with community (groups, chats, challenges). If you want the simplest “do a tiny practice → log it → move on” system, Living With Clarity (LWC) is built exactly for that.

  • Where will I place one micro-reset (time + place)?

  • What would “steady” look like in one moment today?

Evening (pick one)

  • What pulled me off-center—and what brought me back?

  • One tiny win I’m not dismissing:

  • Fitbit has a Mindfulness tile designed to help track mindfulness sessions and see effects over time. Google Help
