iPhone/ iPod Touch Relaxation Apps

Yesterday, we discussed our workspaces - well, ok. We discussed MY workspace. ;) As you know, I've been trying to "de-clutter" and inspire growth and creativity. It seems no place is immune from things I thought I might use later and they have just remained, and I have not used them. My iPod Touch is no exception. My app space is totally filled, all 11 pages, and I also have several folders full, in addition to single apps, filling up the spaces. So, we're full up.

Now, how many of these apps do I actually USE? Hmm... Not many. Mostly I keep them on there so my son can use them if we are in the car and he gets bored on long trips. Gas prices being what they are, we don't take long trips anymore. It looks like it's time to clean out the iPod. You know it's getting to that point when you get the "message of death" (i.e. "You don't have enough room for ____ app. Delete some videos or pictures and try again.")

So, while going through my apps to figure out which to send back to MAC land (back to my iTunes, and deselected) I wanted to share some of my favorite relaxation apps with you. You can of course, find all of these on the Apple App Store.

Apps discussed in this video include: iZenGarden2, Bloom, Yoritsuki, Aqua Chimes and Wa Kingyo. I'll still be keeping these on my iPod because I love them all and couldn't bear to part with them. That being said, there are LOTS of games I have never played but figured I would - that I haven't! Those will be going back to my app storage. I never delete them mostly because it's just easier to have it stored and then go back and select it for import into your iPhone/iPod. Not only that but if you pay for something you don't want to delete it unless you really misjudged and it's absolutely horrible. lol

What are some of your favorite apps? Let me know! I would love to hear about the ones you have found, as I am a definite 'app collector' and always looking for cool apps. Everything in moderation, though, right? ;)
