Tell MoodMission how you’re feeling and it will give you a tailored list of 5 Missions that can help you feel better and improve your wellbeing. Missions are mental health strategies that are quick, easily achievable, and backed up by scientific evidence, including: Mindfulness meditations Relaxation Exercise and fitness activities Affirmations and coping statements Behavioural activation Yoga Gratitude And heaps of other proven mood boosting activities. It's a simple as doing a Mission and boosting your mood. MoodMission is based in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which is an evidence-based psychological therapy for anxiety and depression. Anyone can use MoodMission, whether you just want a lift in your day or need a bit more help recovering from anxiety or depression. A randomised controlled trial has shown that MoodMission can improve mental health and wellbeing (Bakker et al., 2019), and two other studies published in scientific journals have provided further support (Bakker & Rickard, 2019; Bakker et al., 2018). Randomised controlled trials are the gold standard of scientific evidence, and very few available mental health apps have RCT support (Firth et al., 2018). Completing Missions earns you rewards in the app, motivating you to take steps towards becoming healthier, happier, and more confident. Plus a Mission log helps you track your progress over time. MoodMission learns which types of Missions work best for you, so the more you use MoodMission the better it gets at tailoring your Mission suggestions. MoodMission is not a replacement for professional help. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, or any mental health issue, talk to your GP or contact a psychologist for support.

Be Still helps you learn to see the divine in the sidewalks of life, in the mundane and seemingly unimportant everyday life tasks. Discover what your best life can be. Be Still has two options: pre-made guided meditations, or create your own playlist to meditation how you choose. The guided mediations are in five categories: 1. The Groundwork - this is a good place to start where we meditate on Being Still, Being Present and other basic principles of meditation and life. 2. The World - issues that face the world as a whole - Justice, Peace, Nature 3. Life's Journey - meditations on what we personally can face through life - suffering, forgiveness, love 4. Body & Mind - let's look at our breathing 5. Coming Home - coming back to your faith tradition, meditations on Communion, Prayer, breathing meditations with a Christian focus.

Select and Ambient sound; choices include bowls, forest, waves, rain, Gregorian Chant, morning sounds. 3. Decide how long you want to listen to that sound for. 4. Add some silence onto the end 5.

The Be Still community has grown out of, and is grounded in, the Christian tradition. However we welcome here all spiritual faiths and traditions who are united in the desire to be connected to God. Our hope is that this community builds to be what you need. Today people are recognising that there is more to life that what can be seen. We, at Be Still believe that it's great people are taking time to inwardly look at themselves to discover their potential. At Be Still we believe that the missing link is the Greater Being which connects us all, and if you tune in daily you will begin to recognize the gentle nudges that are around you every day, pointing you in the direction to live your best life. https://www.be-still.community/
