The challenges of the past two years have raised global stress to unprecedented levels, illuminating the importance of prioritizing mental health.
The National Alliance on Mental Illness, the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization, recognizes May as Mental Health Awareness month — a time to raise awareness and mobilize efforts to support mental health.This year, let Mental Health Awareness Month serve as a gentle reminder to prioritize your mental well-being and self-care.Yet, finding the time to focus on our health can be a struggle during busy or challenging times.
That’s exactly why mental health app, Breethe, meets you where you’re at, ensuring self-care becomes a reality and not just a hopeful wish. Breethe’s personalized approach — which easily integrates self-care into your day instead of just adding another item on the to-do list –delivers customized, relatable stress relief right to your phone,”Breethe is personalized for you and your needs. When it comes to wellness and self-care, there is no one-size-fits-all approach,” says Breethe co-founder Lynne Goldberg. “The more we can meet someone where they’re at in their day and life, the more lives we can change for the better.”Can’t sleep? Feeling anxious? The app’s new “Therapy On-The-Go” feature is designed to figure out why, and gets to know its users through a series of quick and easy questions rooted in behavioral science.
Then, based on this interaction, it provides personalized recommendations — including bite-sized therapy talks, meditations, relaxation practices and hypnotherapy sessions.Additionally, with the “Customize My Day” tab, Breethe helps users sneak in a few minutes of self-care as they go about their day. Choose from a selection of activities, such as starting the day, doing chores, working out, or falling asleep. By setting the times when you typically do the activities, the app recommends what support would serve you best at that specific time.
Finally, Breethe is all about real help for your life — it offers relatable tools for (very!) specific everyday situations, such as “My Boss is a Jerk” and “My Family Drives Me Nuts,” making the app even more accessible, timely and friendly.This approach differentiates Breethe from other wellness apps because users need not sift through content libraries in search of the right tools. Instead, Breethe provides a personalized experience that delivers the most appropriate content to users on demand, just the solution for busy lives. As the Breethe team explains, “it’s like having a best friend and life coach in your pocket.”Visit breethe.com for more information, and for a two-week free trial.
