Leave a Review Exhale App
What happened to modern black folks?
Imagine if this was an app marketed for white women. Sisters, I grew up in the south going on 40 years ago. I was one of two black girls at my school. I know what racism looks like and 21st century US/UK is incredibly, overwhelmingly egalitarian and antiracist. Stop letting people sell you oppression with this sort of nonsense. You don’t need some special app that understands the unique “struggle” of being a black woman. Stop thinking other people aren’t going through the same sorts of trials and tribulations we go through. Every person is fighting a battle, wrestling with some pain or trauma. We are not special in this regard. Sorry to the developer, I’m sure you put thought into this app and you genuinely believe this sort of stuff they taught you in college but it just isn’t reality. I know I won’t convince you of this because financially and ideologically you are bound to this notion of systemic oppression of women of color, but these sorts of apps/agendas cause more racial division. Stop focusing on the color of our skin and let’s get back to judging one another solely on the content of our character. Now, if you really want an app that helps black women succeed, create an app that teaches us to get married, stop having children out of wedlock, and how to be financially literate. It’s not me being facetious. If every black woman knew that, we’d be out of poverty in a single generation.Show lessViví Mendoza-Snow
Excellent tool for wellness
The thing about the Exhale App is I truly did not realize how much I needed it until I started using it. The look and feel, the gentleness of the prompts, the quality of the content-- all of that made me feel incredibly grounded and held.
As a busy primary care physician, it's been hard to find time for self-care-- the Exhale app helps me to actually invest in some self-care with the approach of using short modules (5-10 min) to engage listeners.
I've gone from being someone who did nothing at all, to now doing the deep breathing and meditation exercises at least every other morning. So excited by what the team has created and the love they've shown to us Black women users; I can't wait to share it with my colleagues and patients.Show lessAmmahstarr

We are so glad you are enjoying Exhale and that it is a resource for you. We are continuing to work to provide new content that supports Black Women and their well-being. Thank you for you 5-star review!Pagan Spiritualism/ Corny
This app offers a variety of paths within Pagan Spiritualism, often veiled by the facade of New Age self-improvement and inner reflection. However, it's important to note that spiritualism alone may not provide profound growth beyond the realm of self-indulgence. I caution those who consider using this app as a means to enhance their lives.
It's vital to recognize that elevating oneself to the status of an idol can be one of the greatest pitfalls one faces. True redemption, for many, is found through a connection with Christ.
Additionally, it's worth acknowledging that this app caters primarily to a specific audience. Some may find it amusing that anyone with self-respect might take offense.Show lessEStew00
