Ratings and Reviews
Simply wonderful
Very uncomplicated exercises to help identify the root of imbalance. I have survived a spectrum of deep traumas since childhood. Always being in survival mode left me checked out or to locked into an emotional vortex.
Being in that state for so long made adept at manipulating myself into a false sense of safety without truly processing anything. You cannot manipulate the app. The past few weeks have been enlightening in very small doses.
The plans are simple and general enough to be applied to your everyday life. I’ve had several aha moments hours after doing an exercise. The reminders are gentle and easy to follow.
I selected the childhood trauma and unpacking emotional baggage to start. The foundational premise is easy to understand, relatable, and honest.
Love the guided meditations and sleep sounds.

Specifically for women
After using this app for several weeks now it has become clear that this app is intended for women specifically. Many of the courses and articles speak only to women and do not appear to be intended for men, which is very disappointing. The breathwork section is not gender specific but is also VERY basic. The sleep sounds section is cool but needs more sounds to try. The bedtime stories section only has three stories so it's okay for the first few days but that's it. I don't follow the plan page really anymore especially since I had to stop the last course I was taking after a couple of days when I realized it was gender specific. We'll see how long I keep using this app, especially since I already have a Mindvalley membership that offers all of these things and more and isn't gender specific.
Update: Since the developers are not going to be honest about the content and intended audience I will just clarify. I completed tho courses on the app and both of them had sections asking you to "focus on your womanhood" or to "concentrate on your feminine energy" and st least one article it suggested was something about "habits of successful women". Apparently they want you to believe that those sorts of articles are "good resources" for men. I disagree. That said, if you are looking to develop your "womanhood", I have good news for you as that seems to be a main focus of this app.

Hello!
Thank you for your detailed feedback and we highly appreciate your input.
The plan is based on the questionnaire that a user passes in the beginning. Moreover, the app is considered a set of tools good for both genders.
Still, some inconveniences may happen, and we are happy to hear that attentive users like you can notice them, and bring them to our attention. We highly appreciate that since your feedback is our way to becoming better!
Please reach us at gethelp@betterme.world. We will be happy to hear a bit more from you regarding this case and to correct any inconvenience you faced so far.
We will be looking forward to hearing from you!

Assumptions
I’m not quite sure I understand why this app has a section titled “Heal Your Childhood Trauma” with a focus on Confidence & how the lack thereof is attributed to “over-demanding parents….[that] were constantly in your back…[and] put a lot of pressure on you to succeed.” The chapter goes on affirm that “parents want the best for their children…and can become overbearing” because they (the parents) “don’t know how to act.” This really, really annoyed me because having parents that care about you and put stress on you to succeed is the literal dream of children who grow up with truly abusive parents. It’s ridiculous that we are calling parents that seek to help their children succeed “traumatizing.” That’s not trauma. Trauma is the physiological reaction that occurs after a traumatic event, or series of traumatic events, leaving long term effects that cripple the wounded carrier of the trauma. Your parents telling you to spend your free time studying may be annoying, but it is *not* traumatizing. The idea of that being traumatizing almost felt like an insult but it’s actually just laughable. Although I held out hope for this app, the inappropriate mislabeling of “trauma” and subsequent blaming of parents that are well-meaning is just disgraceful. A focus on abuse would absolutely be an appropriate emphasis for a chapter on childhood trauma & the lack of confidence it imposes.
