Gravity’s fresh take on mindfulness combines meditation and journaling

The Drop: New York-based startup Gravity is a journaling app that combines guided audio meditations with reflective writing to help users process their thoughts in an increasingly distracting world.

The Details: A unique approach to journaling

Gravity addresses a common modern dilemma: while it’s easier than ever to escape our thoughts, truly understanding them has become increasingly difficult. The app creates dedicated space for users to connect with their inner voice through a combination of audio meditations and guided journaling sessions called “Pods.”

Gravity combines guided audio meditations with reflective journaling.

Gravity’s experience centers around two core features Daily Reflections  and Moments.

Daily Reflections offer short, timely meditations that refresh every 24 hours, blending ancient wisdom with modern psychology and scientific insights. These sessions explore various themes including momentum, focus, growth, joy, creativity, and resilience.

For emotional regulation in the moment, the app offers “Moments” — brief, evergreen audio meditations designed to help users navigate specific feelings. Whether dealing with anxiety, frustration, or seeking to cultivate gratitude or joy, these science-backed sessions provide tools for processing emotions in real time.

The journaling process itself is straightforward. Users select a Daily Reflection or Moment, listen to the meditation, and then move to their journal entry where they can shuffle through curated prompts designed to deepen their reflection practice.

Gravity also incorporates habit-building features like progress tracking, streaks, and adaptive push reminders that work with each user’s routine.
