Helpful Reminders

Great app for someone cultivating kindness towards themselves. It’s helping me be better about that and I recommend it.

Well designed

Using this app has helped me over the past few weeks. I find the lessons well informed and grounded in theory and I appreciate how the app builds upon itself. I am surprised by the insights it has provided to me thus far. It complements what I am working on with my therapist. Thank you for making such a well conceived tool for personal reflection and growth.

Brilliant app

This is such a good app. I find that the interactive elements really help because they make me think and reflect. The Nudge is such a good idea too. I also like the fact that I can either read or listen to an exercise as suits your circumstances. The only suggestion I would make is that I sometimes get a message on my screen but then, when I click on it, it disappears. If I remember, I take a screenshot but it is sometimes evident that the message is not complete and I can't see the rest of it because it disappears when I click on it. A minor point, but perhaps a section for messages sent to us would be worth considering?

Why?

A lot of people turn to these types of things to help them get understanding or to just help them in general. And when the app says oh we’re here to help but you have to pay for it? Really? What’s the point, you might as well just make people submit their insurance information! This is BS!

I downloaded this app last week and I’m loving it. It’s a really helpful format for me to refresh my self compassion practise. I love the daily practical tools and prompts and useful exercises which are there when I need them. I’ve already recommended it to friends and family. 😁

Mindfulness app

Helpful!

Great App BUT

Great self help app that I really enjoyed using I found it very helpful. Unfortunately the price after the trial in my opinion is too much so decided to not carry on using.

Love this app

Great little alarm and reminder for your mantras, what went well and great.

Love the alarm function and I’m using this morning and night

Fantastic app. As a Clinical psychologist, I have found this app to be immensely helpful and could not recommend it enough.

Quality app

Well worth your time

Just starting out

Just starting my cft journey. I’ve found the app very informative and full of different tools. Love the way the courses layer ontop of each other. Was a big purchase but I feel it’s been worth the investment.

Great app!

Substantive app with lots of concrete information and tangible practices to apply. I really like how accessible the information is. Beautiful interface as well. I also bought the corresponding work book and like it because I can go deeper into the subject matter. Highly recommend!

Wonderful

Such a helpful app, complements the work I’m doing with my therapist. Would highly recommend.

Really helpful

Used this when really quite poorly with anxiety and it has really helped a lot especially with reducing the anxious and self critical thoughts. I keep using the breathing and calm place practices regularly too.

A promising self help app

Good app really. Very professional. It promises to help if you continue paying for it after the trial period is over. Maybe a price reduction once in a while would be more attractive. I was very happy with what I saw though.

Helpful, supportive, informative and transformative

This app is very, very good. Unobtrusive and down to earth help. Highly recommended. Be kind to yourself and use it.

Explains everything perfectly

Gives such a great variety of things to use and tool. The sessions explain everything so well. I’d suggest that anyone who doesn’t find this helpful isn’t fully committing to it. It has changed my life incredibly. As a psychologist I can say CFT has been the biggest thing that has changed my life. Learning to do something so unnatural has given me confidence to confront my most uncomfortable fears and emotions.

Expensive yes but worth every penny. Think of it as a longer term therapy for the price of one session!

Excellent

This is more than just an app. It brings together valuable information and a wealth of resources in one place. It’s a great focal point to work through self-understanding and practical changes. Highly recommended. Thank you!

Super helpful

I find the app easy to use and helpful for growing self compassion. The mindfulness and meditation tools are really varied in lengths so there is always something I can choose to do. It’s helping me manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm so really useful as part of my toolkit for day to day wellbeing.

Self investment, 100% worth it

Phones are in our hands most of the time, so a course through an app is very handy. I’m finding this course beautiful, and it’s helping me. It was recommended by my therapist. I’m on day 5.
