Mein Ziel mit dieser App ist es dir das Praktizieren von Dankbarkeit so einfach wie möglich zu gestalten. Aus diesem Grund arbeitet die App mit Dankbarkeitsfragen im Audioformat. So kannst du Dankbarkeit praktizieren, während du dir die Zähne putzt, Kaffee kochst, oder zur Arbeit fährst. Zusätzlich zur täglichen Dankbarkeitspraxis findest du in der App jede Menge Affirmationen, Meditationen, Power Talks, Energy Walks, Achtsamkeitsübungen, Atemübungen und Seminare zum Thema emotionales Essen und Binge Eating und vieles mehr.
