Positive

Grow the good in you, one little thing a day.

Positive is a cute little app built on positive psychology. Each day, a two-minute exercise waters one of your strengths, and your garden blooms.

  • Savor, thank, be kind, try a brave little step: a different little thing each day, not the same old prompt.
  • Your strengths grow as flowers. Pip, a small gardener, tells you when one blooms.
  • No streaks, and nothing wilts. Away for a week? Your garden is still there, glad to see you.

Stressed or low? Start with one small good thing.

Positive doesn’t see you as a problem to fix. It gives you one two-minute exercise a day from positive psychology, and a little garden that grows with you.

  • Two minutes, not a programme: savor something, thank someone, take one brave little step.
  • A calm, cute garden that grows when you show up, and never wilts when you don’t.
  • Rough days are allowed. “Not much” is a fine answer, and there’s always a gentler little thing.

Pip says: Hi! Shall we do a little thing together?

A peek inside the app

Screens from the design of the first release.

  • The garden screen: Pip waters a hillside of flowers at every stage and says “Morning! The dew’s still on the leaves.” Today’s little thing takes 2 minutes.
    Your garden Each strength you pick grows as its own flower.
  • The Today screen: today’s little thing is “Say thanks out loud”, about 2 minutes, which waters Gratitude, with a Start button.
    Today’s little thing One small practice a day, and you can always pick something else.
  • Pip’s report: “It bloomed!” Kindness is in full bloom, drawn as a seed, a sprout, a bud and a bloom, above the question “How did that feel?”
    Watch it grow Seed, sprout, bud, bloom: Pip tells you each time a strength grows.
  • The happiness jar: a moment shaken out of the jar, “A no-reason hello”, and recent moments below.
    The happiness jar Every moment you write down is kept. Shake the jar to find an old one.

How it works

A few minutes a day, at a moment you choose.

  1. 1Pick a little thing

    Pip suggests one small practice each day: savor something, thank someone, learn one new thing. Not this one? Pick something else.

  2. 2It waters one of your strengths

    Each little thing belongs to one of your strengths, like Kindness or Curiosity. Doing it waters that flower.

  3. 3Pip tells you when it blooms

    When a strength grows a stage, Pip says so. The moment you wrote goes in your happiness jar, to find again on another day.

Pip says: Resting counts. I’ve got the garden.
