Maureen vs Urge Surfin

Maureen is your everyday companion toolkit for structured eating, without the dietary rules. Whether you eat more than you meant to, less than you need, or simply want a steadier rhythm around meals, you're in the right place. YOUR DAILY SUPPORT • Meal Plan: Cut decision fatigue by planning the week's meals ahead of time. Optionally log what you've had, link a recipe, and save your favorites. • Recipes Library & Cook Mode: Organize your recipes and steady the cooking, with step-by-step guidance and timers that follow along. Cooking for more? The ingredients scale with the servings. • Pacer: Give every meal a beginning and an end with gentle bite cues and a short rest in between, at a pace that you set. Task Timer brings the same shape to your to-do entries and marks them done for you when completed. • The Ladder: Turn intentions into small visible wins. Set repeating routines or one-off tasks like groceries under To-do, or score what you've been avoiding under Climb to build an exposure hierarchy you take one rung at a time. • Daily Check-in: Give the day a weather report. Log your mood in one tap, as often as the day changes. • Insights: See what a month was actually made of. Your behaviors drawn as a calendar of the period you're looking at, alongside your check-ins, moods and activity. • Reflections: Write as the day goes, on one running timeline. Look back at any entry whenever you want it. IN THE MOMENT Equip yourself with coping strategies and regulation techniques grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). • Urge Surfing: Let an urge rise and fall on its own without acting on it. Name it, rate the intensity, and breathe through the peak while it passes. Noticing it is the practice. • Breathwork: Settle your nervous system directly when the pull feels physical, with breathing exercises and somatic techniques: Physiological Sigh, Box Breathing, 4-7-8, Body Scan, and Progressive Muscle Relaxation. • Grounding: Come back to the room when your head is somewhere else. Work down from five things you can see to the one you can taste, with voice guidance to walk you through it. COMMUNITY • Forum: Connect with people who don't need it explained. Share small wins, advice, strategies, recipes, or find an accountability buddy. Post anonymously any time, because privacy matters here. • Messages: Talk to someone one to one. Requests, blocking and reporting are built in, so a conversation only opens if you want it to. DISCLAIMER Maureen is a self-guided wellness tool. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and is not a substitute for professional mental health care. Insights are generated solely from your own input and reflect your entries back to you without interpretation, evaluation, or recommendation. All insight logic is rule-based and runs entirely on your device. All exercises are informed by published research in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and are intended for educational and self-help purposes only. If you are in crisis or need clinical support, please reach out to a qualified professional. SUBSCRIPTION Maureen is free to use. Maureen Pro unlocks the full toolkit and cloud backup.
