Russell Simmons Guides Users to Positivity With Meditation Made Simple, an App for iPhone & iPad to Achieve Success Through Zen

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Jun 18, 2015) - With the hustle and bustle of work, personal relationships and constantly buzzing technology, it's often easy to forget to take a moment and breathe. In order to live our healthiest lives, we must start with our minds. Meditation Made Simple, Russell Simmons's guided meditation app for all skill levels, launched today to remind us of the importance of mindfulness to health and success in your professional and personal life. The Meditation Made Simple all for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch is available exclusively on the App Store.

"Yoga and meditation have had such a positive impact on my life and I wanted to share my learnings with the masses -- for anyone to practice from your grandmother to your 5-year old nephew and niece," said Russell Simmons. "Mindfulness is something you can practice, no equipment or fancy yoga studio necessary. In just a few minutes, you can achieve the calm that will help your work life, relationships and general health thrive."

Simmons, a well-practiced meditation and yoga expert, leads you through a 10- or 20-minute meditation practice or vibration session to help you de-stress your mind, refocus and increase productivity. Through regularly practicing these mindfulness exercises, you can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, reduce anxiety, tension headaches, ulcers and insomnia, as well as improve general mental wellbeing.

"There's no bad way to meditate, only different forms for different people," said Simmons. "But, I can promise that with regular practice, you will see improvements in your lifestyle, body and mind toward positivity."

This app serves as a supplement to Simmons's second book, Success Through Stillness: Meditation Made Simple, released in March 2014, after his first book, Super Rich, hit the New York Times bestseller list. The book explores the connection between inner peace and outward success, including interviews with successful leaders in various industries, focused on how learning to be still can be instrumental to success across all facets of life.
