I started using the Mindset app the last time I read about it on HN, maybe a month or so ago. I've found it to be very useful--in addition to therapy, meditation and self-help videos on YouTube--in helping me fight some depression, low self-esteem and guilt that I've been trying to resolve. I hope that your app catches on and more people realize that "focusing sessions" can help them detach from work, social media, and their own toxic thoughts about themselves. Two pieces of feedback for you though. First, once someone does a program, it seems that there are unlimited "reinforcement stages" where you repeat the program again to reinforce the learnings. It would be nice to cap the reinforcement stages at say, 3 stages, to encourage users to feel a sense of completion and either try the other programs or just repeat the whole program again. Second, I think a program centered around facing one's past would be really useful--at least, I'd use it. Other than that, I think the app is really well done, and congratulations to you and Michael Yapko on your hard work. |

Yeah that's a great idea! I guess our thinking regarding the stages was to allow further progression if people wanted to keep listening longer than say 3 stages but allowing people to redo the entire program would accomplish the same while also allowing for that 'completion' feeling.
Thanks for the suggestion! We'll bring the idea up to Dr Yapko around developing some sessions for it.
