Rewire your brain to be happier — using science

Life's short. Learn to think positively using What Went Well — a proven positive psychology exercise.

The science

Positive psychology is a new branch of psychology that offers a toolkit of evidence-based exercises, such as 'What Went Well,' to measure and improve well-being.

Positive psychology

Interventions have shown to be effective in the enhancement of subjective well-being and psychological well-being, as well as in helping to reduce depressive symptoms (see here).

What went well

The What Went Well intervetion, aka Three Good Things, has shown to significantly improve emotional exhaustion, depression, happiness, and work-life balance, with stronger effects in those initially more distressed; with effects sustained up to 12 months (see here).

Do I have to pay? 

What Went Well is free forever for anyone who otherwise couldn't afford it.

For everyone else, there's a 21-day free trial, but afterwards, you’ll need to pay.
However, the catch is that you choose to pay based on how valuable you think it is to your life.

We’d love to make it free for everyone forever, but that would make us dependent on donations and grants. The reality is that businesses need money to develop and grow.

We're trying to build something much larger than What Went Well, specifically a positive psychology superapp containing all of the best exercises, which you can read more about here.

So, we need to charge. We're asking that people pay to give us a signal that we're building something valuable to folks.
