A Simple Mindfulness Exercise

Because TRB focuses on just three things— the Thorn, the Rose, and the Bud— you’re simply capturing the hardest part of you day, the best part, and what you’re looking forward to next. That’s it. No overthinking, no long journalling. And you also get the benefit of staying in the loop with the community.

Great reflection app!

Really enjoy integrating TRB in my wellness practice. Brings the casual and intentionality back to a social media like platform. Ui is clean and easy to use

I HEART TBR

ThornRoseBud / TRB has been such a great way to integrate reflection and mindfulness into my daily routine. The app feels approachable and I love the routine of reflection. Love it!

Reflection made intentional

Absolutely love TRB! I’ve always valued reflection and this app has helped keep me consistent and intentional. And the thorn, rose, bud format brings such a balanced way to reflect! 10/10

Thorn Rose Bud is My Mini Check In Journal

This APP has helped me to summarize a reflection of my day. Even if it hasn’t been a highlight day, it helps me come back to what’s most important, my focus, my energy, and my gratitude. I love it so much because it doesn’t have all the fuss, extras and doesn’t boggle my mind or drain my energy but rather simplify the thorn and the rose while reminding me of the bud. Check it out and get on!! Great work APP creator! 💪💗👏
