We've paused sending Briefing emails to make some improvements. You can still access the Viva Insights Outlook add-in or Viva Insights app in Teams for key functionality until this service resumes. For more information about this change, refer to Briefing pause.

In the Headspace section of the Briefing email, you can launch a guided meditation to start your day grounded and focused.

Before you can use Headspace, you need access to Viva Insights in Microsoft Teams. See Discover the Viva Insights app for details.

Headspace is currently available only to you if your Outlook or Exchange Online language is set to English. Additional languages will be supported soon.
