In collaboration with wellness and beauty icon Gwyneth Paltrow, the groundbreaking new meditation app Moments of Space is set to redefine mindfulness through a unique fusion of ancient Dzogchen teachings and cutting-edge tech. With their powerful ‘eyes-open’ approach, Moments of Space aims to make awakening accessible to all.

The AI-powered app introduces a distinctive ‘eyes-open meditation’ approach that challenges perceived notions of silent and solemn meditative practice by allowing users

to engage with the world while developing a deep connection with their inner selves.

Gwyneth Paltrow, known for challenging convention and bringing new ideas into the mainstream, is at the forefront of this transformative venture as one of the co-owners, bringing her passion for mindfulness to a global community.

“Once you learn how to do eyes-open meditation – something you can literally incorporate at any time – you can be engaged with the world but still very connected to yourself,” said Gwyneth. “I rely on it to feel more whole.”

Moments of Space founder Kim Little is a Buddhist and software developer who believes that life and meditation can become one. “Moments of Space was born out of a desire to make meditation an integral part of my daily life”, said Kim. “I was highly motivated to create an app that truly does justice to the teachings I experienced during my meditation retreats and puts them in people’s pockets - making them practical and personal, any place and any time.”

Through their innovative approach that utilizes the latest tech to help users integrate

ancient practices seamlessly into their busy modern lives, Moments of Space set

themselves apart from meditation platforms of the past, and aim to bring forth a global

awakening.

As Gwyneth Paltrow puts it, “I think we’re living in a time where there’s a lot of bifurcation and people have gone into their corners - closing in, closing down, closing ranks. I believe eyes-open meditation could be potentially important for changing the world and deepening how we connect to ourselves, and others.”

Key Features of Moments of Space include:

● Eyes-Open Meditation: The app guides users through a unique form of meditation

with their eyes open, allowing for engagement with the world while remaining deeply connected to oneself.

● Accessible Any Time, Any Place: With eyes-open meditations and walking

practices, Moments of Space ensures that users can find a moment of space at

any time and in any place. The app promotes an achievable and provenly beneficial ‘little and often’ approach.

● AI-powered Personalization: With a Reflect feature that captures how you are

feeling on a regular basis, the app uses artificial intelligence to find just the right content and for your needs and can serve this to you intelligently in Walking Mode or while commuting. This innovative approach allows users to seamlessly incorporate mindfulness into daily activities like walking between meetings or riding the bus.

● Next Generation Meditation: While mindfulness practice has become

mainstream, Moments of Space takes an innovative approach by delivering

content in a ‘little and often’ format throughout the day. A number of scientific

studies have shown this has greater benefits to cognitive function and lower

levels of perceived stress than a single session.

Moments of Space is available to download today on the Apple App Store and the

Google Play store. A VR version for the Apple Vision Pro will be in development for 2024.

Studies showing little and often is better:

A study published in the Journal of Cognitive Enhancement in 2019 found that

practicing brief meditation sessions (10 minutes) multiple times a day resulted in

greater improvements in cognitive function and well-being compared to a group that

practiced a single 40-minute meditation session per day.

Journal of Cognitive Enhancement, 3(1), 40-49. doi:10.1007/s41465-018-0112-2)

Another study published in the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology in 2018

found that practicing brief mindfulness exercises (two minutes of breath awareness)

four times a day was associated with greater improvements in emotional regulation and

attentional control compared to a group that practiced a single 20-minute mindfulness

meditation per day.

stress reduction for the treatment of adolescent psychiatric outpatients: A randomized

clinical trial. Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 86(9), 875–888. doi:

10.1037/ccp0000341)

A study published in the Journal of Occupational Health Psychology in 2015 found that

practicing brief mindfulness exercises (three-minute breathing exercises) several times

a day resulted in lower levels of perceived stress and increased job satisfaction among

employees, compared to those who practiced a single 15-minute mindfulness exercise

per day.

A study published in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience in 2018 found that practicing

short meditation sessions (10 minutes) three times a day was associated with greater

improvements in attention and working memory compared to a group that practiced a

single 30-minute meditation session per day.
