Description

Mindful Powers™ is an award-winning, kid-first, holistic approach to helping young minds learn and practice mindfulness so they can respond more effectively to stressful situations through the power of play. Built on a skills-based approach that helps children in early and middle childhood build a healthier relationship with life, stress, and anxiety, Mindful Powers™ empowers kids to bring calm to their lives at the touch of their fingertips.

Download Mindful Powers™ today to experience the first three Mindful Play lessons for free!
Ideal for kids aged 7 – 10

Mindful Powers™ is designed to be a part of your child’s daily routine. It is simple, easy, and fun to use, so kids can pick it up and use it at any point in their day. The two key features are:
• Mindful Play | voice-guided mindfulness sessions
• Focus Time | a task timer

Mindful play:
Through a series of 10 progressive and interactive voice-guided sessions, kids learn how to master the powers of mindfulness – the ability to know and understand what is happening in one’s head at any given moment, without getting carried away by it. Before each lesson, kids sooth their very own Flibbertigibbet™, who is in an agitated state, with the touch of their finger. This sensory-based repetitive interaction triggers the body’s rest and digest response, helping kids relax and regain focus.

Focus time:
The Flibbertigibbet™ self-set timer helps kids set mental parameters around a given task by applying focus time until completion. When the focus timer is on, Mindful Powers™ deters kids from using the device for any other purpose, encouraging them to work towards completing their tasks.

Mindful Powers helps grow the following skills:
• Calmness & relaxation
• Stress & anxiety reduction
• Concentration & focus
• Navigating big emotions
• Getting along with others

“Mindful Powers™ is not a cookie cutter approach to mindfulness. Based on contextual behavioral science and inspired by an approach to therapy called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, it recognizes that the mindfulness experience is a psychological experience that can be learned in small bits and gradually presented and trained.”
— Dr. Roger Vilardaga, Assistant Professor at Duke University

Great

This is a great app, the flibbertigibbet is cute and I like how when you complete a story your plant grows and you get new actions for the flibbertigibbet to do.
Also, the stories are very useful, and make you more mindful, for example, after the body scan, I knew a lot more about what I was feeling, and also why I was feeling this. As well as this, the stories are interesting to listen to, which made me want to listen to them.
However, I'm trying to collect all of the awards, but whenever I spend time on the focus timer, (e.g. 5 minutes), I don't get the award. :(
But it's still a very good app :)

Developer Response ,

Thank you for the very thoughtful review Bjdmjjvmksjudc,linking! We are so happy to learn that Mindful Powers helps you calm your mind and focus your attention. And Flibbertigibbet appreciates all the time you spend with him! Thank you for bringing our attention to the issue of the Focus Time achievements not working. We are working on a fix for the next update. We will be sure to follow up and let you know when we fixed this issue and updated the app. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Great calming App

A great App which my son loves when he’s calming down for bed. Helps him settle if he’s feeling silly. Really appreciate you making this App. 👍

Very engaging!!

Love smoothing out the creature - an app where you only did this would also be great!! With lots of different characters 👍

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your constructive feedback NonnieMez. Feedback from kids and parents is instrumental in helping us build an app that truly empowers children to be mindful. We will keep your idea in mind for the future! It's a great one.
