I recommend this to everyone
I absolutely love this app. I think it has everything you need to help take a moment to have a breather and then move on with your day. Everything has such careful attention to detail, I absolutely love it. I love that you don’t have access to everything right away, like we have a few things to do right away so it’s not too over whelming and then over time you have access to more little games and I just think that is a great feature. I think I have found all of the games, I would love it if you could add a few more. I mean I’m very happy with what you guys have now so like take your time. My only problem, which isn’t even that big of a deal, is that on my altar somethings are in front of other things and I would love to have the option to be able to decide wether something goes behind or in front of the other object. It allows me to do this while I’m arranging them but when I leave my altar and come back some things are in front of other objects and it is not how it left it. Once again though, it’s not a big deal, but it would be great if it could be fixed. But overall, this is a beautiful, well made app that allows you to take 5-10 minutes of your day to center yourself and take a little much needed break. The games are simple and interesting. I absolutely love this app and recommend it to everyone. Thank you to everyone who helped create this app!

Just what I needed
I have had this app for a little over two hours, and I can already tell it’s going to become a staple in my life. I get anxious really easily and overthink things constantly, in fact, only 20 minutes ago I began to do just that, and, remembering that I had just downloaded this because of a friend's recommendation, I opened the app and began to explore. All of the different screens are so effective in their own way, it's magical. The first I tried out after the tutorial was over was a screen where you fill a bubble with color, and then do it again. As you keep going the screen gets lighter, the circle gets bigger, and (although I'm not sure if this one was actually happening or if my brain was playing tricks on me) it gets easier to fill in. This screen alone seemed to calm me down a lot, but I kept exploring out of curiosity and I am so glad I did. I opened the screen with breathing exercises and sat, cross legged, on my bed, just breathing, for a few minutes that passed by like nothing. It was incredibly sootheing and balancing. Afterwards, I went to the screen that has you fill in words. It was so centering, the words are mostly easy to figure out, and they're all positive thoughts, I was so busy focusing on the words that I basically tuned out all other thoughts. Long story short, this app is a godsend, great for nerves/anxiety, and on top of that has a killer aesthetic. 10/10 would recommend!

Really enjoying it!
I got this because I stumbled upon it looking for apps to help with self-care, and it’s been a lot more than just that. I have anxiety as well, and the breathing flower (though I use the mountain option) really helps me regulate my heart rate. The massage & flower growing activities are just aesthetically soothing; the gratitude jar & intention candle are things I use daily; the fill-in word puzzles & picture sliding puzzle are a lot of fun when I want to distract myself but still be working my mind. The tarot cards are a lot of fun, and I enjoy petting my cat quite a bit. There are also journaling prompts, a locket you fill, an activity with the moon, paper flower making, a crystal puzzle, putting away your laundry, blowing bubbles, and a few more I’m sure I’m forgetting. You’re definitely going to find one (or several!) things you enjoy. All around, I love this app, and it’s helped a lot. The only changes I would suggest are two things; to allow the choice to choose a dog or cat (I like the kitty, but am more of a dog person) and a way to link my Fitbit heart rate monitor up with the breathing flower (I know there’s a separate Breathe Luv app that works with Apple Watch, but I don’t make enough to afford one, and am quite contented with my Fitbit :) However, I also realize this app is completely free, and am just insanely appreciative to have it at all. Keep doing what you’re doing, and thank you so much for this ♥️
