Headspace App

Headspace is more than a meditation app. It features soothing soundscapes, meditations, movement and courses to build resiliency, creativity, routines and more. Headspace provides skills to build mindfulness - the ability to be present in our lives, fully engaged with the moment, with an open and curious mind; and meditation - the formal practice for building the skill of mindfulness that we apply to our everyday lives.

From waking up to exercising, eating to sleeping, Headspace has 1,000+ hours of content to help you live your whole day mindfully — not just when you’re sitting to meditate. Headspace is proven to reduce stress by 14% in just 10 days. It can also help you relax your mind in minutes, improve focus, and get the best sleep ever. You can read more about Headspace’s research here.

LiveHealth Online

If you’re feeling stressed or anxious or you’re just having a tough time, it’s okay to ask for help. Aside from the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) under New Directions and Behavioral Health Program under Anthem, LiveHealth Online Psychology makes talking to someone more convenient than ever. You can have a video visit with a psychologist or licensed therapist from your home, or wherever you have internet access. You also have access to an online resource center.

Just download the free LiveHealth Online mobile app or visit livehealthonline.com on a computer with a webcam, to get started. It’s free to sign up and visits range from $75 to $175. If you're enrolled in the Assurant Health Plan, costs are applied to your deductible and coinsurance.

Video visits are completely private and confidential. Most of the time, you can have a video visit with a psychologist or therapist in seven days or less. This may be faster than waiting for a regular office visit.

Fees apply, though if you are enrolled in the Assurant health plan, costs are applied to your deductible and coinsurance.

Sleep Management for health plan enrollees

Lack of sleep or poor-quality sleep can affect how well you function and your overall health. Sleep-deprived people have trouble doing critical things, like concentrating, solving problems, and making decisions.

Sleep studies help doctors diagnose sleep disorders such as sleep apnea, periodic limb movement disorder, narcolepsy, restless legs syndrome, insomnia, and nighttime behaviors like sleepwalking and REM sleep behavior disorder. Often these disorders cannot be identified with a normal office visit—your doctor needs to gather more conclusive evidence while you’re asleep. Receive sleep testing and therapy today so you can sleep better.
