Strong Minds
Strong Minds App can help you learn about your feelings and develop practical skills for happiness and resilience. It has many sections and draws from theories such as CBT, mindfulness, and positive psychology.
Why learn this stuff?
By learning about your feelings and emotions, you can make peace with the difficult ones, enjoy the positive ones, and better understand the people around you. By working with your thoughts and actions, you can also learn how to lift your mood when life gets tough.
What do I need?
This version of Strong Minds will work on most android phones and some tablets. We are currently working on tablet compatibility.

This is one of my favorite apps. I need this to help me almost daily so much so that I kept my old phone just to be able to use this app. I now have an iphone 6+ and it isnt available in the app store. Is it possible to add this app to the iphone please? I dont know how much longer this old phone will work and I dont want to have to give this app up if this old phone stops working. Thank you
This app is very useful. You should make more apps like this. Very easily understandable and to navigate. Good on you, thank you to the developer

I read some of the stories with my mum and it became a really good tool to help challenge my negative thought patterns. I learnt a lot of great skills and had good discussions. The app is very interactive and easy to use. I hope there will be more updates of more stories like this. Thank you for making this app and making a difference in my life. :) Cheers
