When we’re in a world as stressful as today’s times, we’re on our phones more than usual. Instead of spending your time swiping through TikTok or playing Words with Friends, you can use that time wisely by improving your overall health with some of the most highly recommended fitness-focused and mindfulness apps.

Dr. Myles Spar, chief medical officer of Vault Health– a men’s telehealth startup offering direct-to-consumer prescription treatments and testosterone replacement therapy to optimize their physical, sexual, and cognitive health– is an expert in integrative men’s health and a big advocate of using technology for self-improvement.

As a tech-savvy, health-focused man himself, Dr. Spar has organized a list of 6 must-have apps for men’s health:

1. 10% Happier – It’s free and this app has a ton of meditations to follow, ranging from 1 minute to 60 when you’re needing a break. With a wide variety of options to suit all levels, the 10% Happier app comes from Dan Harris, the ABC news correspondent and author of the best-seller, 10% Happier, which is his terrific book.
2. Calm – Calm instructs users with sessions ranging from 3 to 25 minutes that emphasize relief from anxiety, stress, and insomnia. It features Daily Calm, a 10-minute program to help ease you into the day or unwind with before bed.
