About

NUHE

Features
Read full description

NUHE takes its name from the Kogi word NuhuΓ© β€” the ceremonial house where Mamos, spiritual leaders, gather. A NuhuΓ© is not a place of debate, but of deep listening. A place where silence is part of the answer. Inspired by this tradition, NUHE became a modern pilgrimage: traveling across lands to gather voices who still carry living wisdom. Filmed across Peru, Europe and beyond, these conversations are not about beliefs. They are about how to live. Inside the app, the ritual is simple. A question is posed. Silence follows. Then a voice answers, and you listen. The questions are simple, yet immense. What did you plant, what did you harvest? How do we walk the Earth in harmony? What must we change to become better humans? We gather grounded voices from different lands and traditions β€” not to tell you what to think, but to help you remember what was quietly forgotten. β€” Filmed conversations, one question at a time β€” A fire that burns while you sit with each question β€” A new line from the voices every time you return β€” Listen with the screen off; pick up where you left β€” Download answers for the road NUHE began as a seed, planted on the shores of Amantani island of Lake Titicaca. It has grown through journeys, conversations in many languages, music and shared silence. The first voice is Pema Gitama, tantric teacher of embodied awareness. More are coming. It’s for those who feel the world is loud β€” and sense there is something quieter, older, and wiser underneath. Listening is thinking.

About

CouchNotes

You sit down on the couch β€” and forget everything you wanted to say. Not anymore. Sofa amnesia is real. Your agenda isn't. CouchNotes is the between-sessions journal for people in therapy: jot a thought the moment it happens, tag it "bring to session", and by your next appointment it has become a one-page agenda β€” grouped, ordered, ready. ON THE COUCH Session Mode turns your phone into a large-type agenda. Talk through an item, check it off. Anything you didn't get to rolls into next time automatically. Afterwards, a 30-second wrap-up keeps one takeaway and your therapist's homework. BETWEEN SESSIONS Capture in under 30 seconds: one sentence, an optional feeling from a 104-word feelings wheel, intensity, a topic tag. No streaks, no scores, no pressure β€” this is a notebook, not a game. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE Everything is encrypted and stays on this phone. No account, no cloud, no analytics. Face ID lock, instant cover in the app switcher, notifications that only ever show a number. Export or delete your data anytime. NOTHING IS WALLED OFF All 6 agenda templates, all 120 prompts, all 40 session-skill cards, PDF agenda export for your therapist (including an anonymous version), and session insights are included for everyone. A banner appears at the bottom of the screen. An optional one-time "Remove Ads" purchase hides it. The banner is the only advertising in the app; nothing takes over the full screen. Japanese, English and Simplified Chinese. Everything except the purchase works offline. CouchNotes is a note-taking tool, not therapy, medical care, or crisis support. In an emergency, call your local emergency services immediately.
