"당신의 오늘은 어떤 마음이었나요?" 매일 빽빽한 할 일 목록을 보며 한숨 쉬고 있진 않나요? 다 끝내지 못했다는 죄책감에 스스로를 자책하고 있다면, 이제 나를 옥죄는 계획표 대신 나를 다독이는 다정한 다이어리를 만나보세요. Why:Mind(와이마인드)는 바쁜 일상 속에서 정작 내 마음의 진짜 이유(Why)를 묻지 못했던 당신을 위해 탄생했습니다. 단순한 할 일 관리를 넘어, 나의 감정을 먼저 돌보고 그에 맞춘 최적의 페이스를 찾아주는 세상에서 가장 다정한 마인드케어 투두(To-Do) 앱입니다. Why:Mind만의 특별하고 다정한 기능들 1. 나를 채찍질하지 않는 '심리 기반 투두 리스트' 기계적인 100% 달성을 강요하지 않습니다. 기운이 없는 날엔 "일단 책상에 앉기"처럼 목표를 아주 작게 쪼개어 시작의 부담을 덜어줍니다. 오늘 계획한 것을 다 끝내지 못해도 괜찮아요. Why:Mind는 당신의 아주 작은 '시작의 용기'에 박수를 보냅니다. 2. 진짜 이유(Why)를 찾는 '감정 기록과 회고' 단순히 "오늘 우울했다", "기뻤다"로 끝나지 않습니다. 매일의 기분과 생각의 흐름을 기록하며 내 감정 이면의 진짜 이유를 찾아보세요. 데이터가 쌓일수록 내가 언제 스트레스를 받고 언제 행복을 느끼는지, '진짜 내 모습'을 발견할 수 있습니다. 3. 내 마음을 안아주는 다정한 멘토, '이그니 코칭' 일기를 작성하면 다정한 불꽃 요정 '이그니'가 따뜻한 위로와 맞춤형 코칭 편지를 보내줍니다. 매일매일 이그니에게 고민을 털어놓고 마음의 온도를 다독여 보세요. 4. 나를 더 깊이 이해하는 시간, 'Pro 플랜' 한 달 동안 쌓인 나의 감정과 할 일 패턴을 꼼꼼하게 분석해 주는 '월간 리포트'를 제공합니다. 단순한 일기 쓰기를 넘어, 데이터 기반의 깊이 있는 회고를 통해 나를 더 객관적으로 돌아보고 성장해 보세요. 5. 함께 성장하는 연대, 'With 플랜' 혼자 하는 성장이 외롭고 금방 지치시나요? 연인, 가족, 친한 친구와 최대 4인 그룹을 만들어 서로의 하루를 따뜻하게 응원해 보세요. 매주 우리 그룹의 활동과 감정 흐름을 요약해 주는 '주간 리포트'를 통해 혼자가 아니라는 든든한 연대의 힘을 느낄 수 있습니다. "끝내지 못했다는 죄책감 대신, 시작했다는 용기를." 완벽하지 않아도 괜찮습니다. 당신 안에 잠재된 따뜻한 불꽃이 자연스럽게 타오를 수 있도록 Why:Mind가 곁에서 돕겠습니다. 지금 Why:Mind를 다운로드하고, 내 마음을 알아가는 가장 특별한 시간을 시작해 보세요! 이용약관 (Terms of Use): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
