WellMindNow · about 5 minutes a day

Feel better, one small step a day.

For stress, burnout, worry, poor sleep, low mood, or one habit you want to change. Day 1 is free and takes about 4 minutes.

Created by Dr. Shivam Dubey, MD, FAPA, a Harvard-trained psychiatrist, with a team of psychologists and psychiatrists. Your answers stay on this device.

Two ways to start

Change one habit

Work on one thing

Snapping, scrolling, overthinking, saying yes to everything. Pick one, and practise a better response.

Follow a program

Not sure where to start?

A guided program covers the basics step by step, and helps you find your habit along the way.

What you'll make today

Your own practice card

In about 4 minutes, you'll pick what to work on, notice your first warning sign, and try a new response once. Your card shows what to do next time.

Pause before I react

My practice card
Notice
My shoulders tense up
Pause
Stop. One slow breath.
Choose
Put both feet flat. Breathe out slowly. Then say one calm sentence.

“Feet down. Breathe out. Then speak.”

My reason: Be the parent or partner I want to be

  2. 2PauseTake one slow breath out.
  3. 3ChooseDo your new action.

Together, these three steps are called Meta Mode. Your 66-day guide trains them a few minutes a day, in real moments, until the new response starts to come on its own.

University College London · 2010

Repeating a small action makes it automatic.

In a study of daily habits, new actions took a median of 66 days to feel automatic. Missing one day did not undo progress.

UCLA · 2007

Naming a feeling can calm the brain.

When people put a feeling into words, a brain area linked to alarm became less active.
