I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect from the Muse 2, but my sister had been using hers for a couple of months and loved having a visual sense of how her meditations were actually going. That idea really appealed to me—especially since I often felt like I was just sitting in the dark with my mind racing.
I've now had the device for two weeks and have been using it every morning and evening. What surprised me most is how often I *thought* I wasn’t reaching a meditative state simply because my mind was busy. In reality, the Muse 2 has shown me that even when my thoughts are active—or when I’m mentally “programming”—I’m actually entering a heightened awareness state rather than failing at meditation.
It also makes it very clear when I’m *not* being effective in my practice, which has already helped me improve my sessions. This has genuinely become a valuable tool for me. I plan to take it everywhere: to sound baths, meditation classes, when I travel—pretty much anytime I meditate.
I’m looking forward to diving deeper into all the metrics it offers: brainwave activity, heart rate, Alpha peak (cognitive performance), brain recharge, and stillness. I did end up purchasing their subscription for the additional metrics and AI insights. I’m not sure it’s absolutely necessary, but it’s definitely nice to have. I’ve also tried several of their guided and unguided meditations. There’s a wide variety—some I really enjoy, and others don’t resonate with me as much—but the selection is impressive.
If you’re wanting a clearer understanding of what’s happening during your meditation sessions, this is a fantastic tool to add to your practice.
