We've updated some of our messaging to strike a better balance: helping climate-aware folks find us while not overwhelming people who might need these tools but didn't know to look for them. All along we've been helping you find calm in a changing world, resilience for when the world feels loud, skills to navigate modern stress, and tools that help with the everyday moments, like processing big headlines or preparing for hard conversations. Hopefully that's now better reflected here on the app store and within the app. If you've been here, you know what Genjo is about. If you're new: we're glad you found us. As always, we welcome your feedback at megan@genjo.app

We added a new "Start Here" section. If you're new or not sure where to start, you'll find it at the top of the Today tab. It's a small collection of practices that work well as entry points, things like the After Climate News tool and the Introduction to Mindfulness and Meditation lesson. Sometimes having too many options makes it harder to begin. This is meant to make that easier. I always appreciate hearing your questions and feedback. Write anytime to megan@genjo.app.

We added a new practice for the winter solstice. There are five reflections to help you pause with the longest night and mark the season's turning. Small rituals like this create moments of meaning. I hope it helps you feel connected to something larger than the daily churn. We also redesigned the Explore page so you can find what you need more easily. And, if you're using iPad, you should notice some improvements to the design as well. I always appreciate hearing your questions and feedback. Write anytime to megan@gejno.app.

Our first in-app event is here, inviting you into a 7-day journey to deepen gratitude. Through awe, ecological connection, and mindful presence, gratitude shifts from concept to embodiment. From thought to lived experience. My inbox is open - message me anytime: megan@genjo.app.

Climate headlines are unavoidable in the news and on social media. That's why we created a new tool for when climate news is weighing on you. We also made some improvements to design and readability. It's a constant balance between new content and making what's here work better. Thanks for being here! We're also happy to see you in our inbox- email megan@genjo.app anytime.

This update introduces a new series: Climate Emotions at Work. Overwhelmed by constant climate news? Struggling when your company’s choices don’t match your values? Feeling alone in your concern when no one else talks about it? Do you feel you aren't doing "enough"?

Something really special has happened these past few weeks. Thousands of people from around the world have found their way to Genjo. To help everyone feel more at home, we’ve made updates to language and accessibility. We’ve also added a new set of breathwork practices. They’re simple tools for when climate emotions or daily stress feel overwhelming. My hope is that these small, steady practices can meet you right where you are. Thank you for being here. You can always reach me with feedback, questions, and a "hello" at megan@genjo.app.

This update freshens up the Today and Explore screens, making it easier to find your next meditation, soundscape, or mindful practice. We’ve also added a Lifetime Access option. Pay once and unlock all meditations, lessons, and tools forever. Plus, a few quiet fixes to keep everything running smoothly for you. Your feedback helps guide Genjo forward. You can always reach me at megan@genjo.app.

In this update, we’ve expanded the Resources section. In addition to climate-aware therapy support, you’ll now find links to more communities and organizations offering care at the intersection of climate change and mental health. If you come across something that helps, or something that’s missing, I’d love to hear from you at megan@genjo.app.

In this July update we've made some quiet improvements behind the scenes to keep Genjo flowing smoothly for you. July holds different meanings for each of us - deep summer heat, winter's quiet, heavy rains, or something entirely your own. Whatever this month brings to your corner of the world, may these small improvements offer gentle support for your practice. As always, I welcome your stories, feedback, and "hellos" at megan@genjo.app.

Sometimes, words aren't what we need. Our new nature soundscapes are made for those moments. Nature heals because your system recognizes home in these ancient voices. Your heart rate finds its natural pace. Your breathing deepens without effort. You remember you belong here. Use them when you need to feel grounded. When the world feels loud. When you want to step into nature without leaving your space. We're also introducing subscriptions. There are three tiers: Accessible, Sustaining, and Supporter. Pay what feels right for your situation. If cost is a barrier, email us at access@genjo.app and we'll provide free access. Climate-aware mindfulness support should be available to everyone. If introducing subscriptions feels disappointing, please know that as a solo builder, subscriptions will make Genjo sustainable so I can keep focused on the mission - creating climate-aware mindfulness support for those who need it most. That's why we offer three tiers (pay what feels right) and free access if cost is a barrier. Your support (wether through a subscription, review, feedback, or sharing with a friend) helps this work continue - and I'm grateful. - Megan

As wildfires, heat waves, and climate headlines grow more frequent, you might be wondering how to stay grounded in the midst of it all.

You may have seen Genjo featured in “Big Apps from Small Teams.” As a solo founder (and a busy mom), that one meant a lot. I love creating new content and features to support you, but sometimes, the work happens behind the scenes. This is one of those updates. This release is all about helping the people who need Genjo most be able to find it. Think - subtle improvements to how Genjo shows up in App Store searches. Thank you for being here. May this space keep meeting you where you are. P.S. If Genjo has helped you, would you consider leaving a review? It helps others find their way here too. And if you ever want to share more, my inbox is always open - megan@genjo.app.

In honor of World Environment Day, we’re introducing a new 7-day reflection series to support your inner climate journey. Each day invites a simple but powerful question designed to help you slow down, feel what’s true, and reconnect with what matters most. Whether you’re moving through climate grief, anxiety, overwhelm, or something harder to name, this series is here to help you meet it with compassion.

Earlier this month, for Mental Health Month, we launched micro-lessons. These bite-sized practices are designed to ease stress, build resilience, and reconnect you with what matters most. This update makes it easier to track your journey. You can now: • Mark lessons as complete • Save your favorites to revisit anytime Whether you're navigating eco-anxiety, burnout, or just feeling overwhelmed, we hope this update helps you honor your process.

This Mental Health Month, we’re introducing Micro-Lessons—bite-sized wisdom to help you understand and process climate emotions like anxiety, grief, and anger. These short lessons help you recognize what’s happening in your mind and body. Like the urge to stay constantly busy to avoid feeling despair, or the sense of shutdown when the crisis feels too big. By exploring how nervous system patterns, emotional habits, and belief systems show up in climate-aware contexts, Micro-Lessons lay the foundation for Genjo’s reflective practices, meditations, and tools.

We've introduced micro-learnings. These bite-sized lessons will help build your understanding of eco-emotions. With gentle guidance you can integrate into daily life. It's an alternative to endless content consumption (doomscrolling). Designed to nourish, not deplete. Our library will continue to grow. Tell me what topics you'd like to see covered next! Email megan@genjo.app :)

You'll notice the icon on your phone is a little different - same Genjo, now with a splash of color. We've tweaked the design of Genjo to create a more peaceful space for your climate emotions. Also, we've updated the overall flow between the different tools and practices and updated our homepage with words of wisdom to inspire your daily practice. Consider this a gentle refresh, like tidying your favorite reading nook to make it even more welcoming. We're always listening at hello@genjo.app if you'd like to share your thoughts on these changes.

In this update, we’ve made some behind-the-scenes improvements to keep Genjo running smoothly. Think of it as clearing the mental clutter, but for the app. Fewer bugs, better flow, same steady support for navigating the emotions of climate change. Also, behind the scenes, we're working on a full app redesign in time for Earth Day—just 48 days away! We’d be honored if you’d like to provide feedback ahead of the launch. Reach out to Megan directly at megan@genjo.app—we’d love to hear from you!
