Attention app for iPhone and iPad

Create, send, and receive small doses of wisdom, customized to bring attention to intention. Attention enables members of the wellness community–from life coaches to meditation instructors to parenting podcasters–to dispense bits of motivational wisdom to individuals, client groups, or a large audience. As the receiver, you can tailor this wisdom to fit into your busy routine, just when you need it most.

Our one-way communication platform can supplement almost any therapy, coaching, or self-improvement practice, making it possible for those who run support groups/classes/workshops or work one-on-one, to easily support clients between sessions.

HOW IT WORKS:

Customize, send, and receive small doses of wisdom, advice, or encouragement called “attentions.”

An attention is comprised of an image paired with a soundbyte or text. It appears on your phone as a notification—one that is nourishing and, with its personalized scheduling feature, perfectly timed to help you focus on what matters.

An attention might provide a calming new insight, reinforce a healthy mindset, help you find momentum, or instill a spark of motivation, clarity, or joy. It’s the…

…daily encouragement created with your therapist to bridge the gap between appointments
…inspiring pep-talk from your life coach prior to an interview, speaking engagement, or audition
…sanity-saving tip from a parenting expert about toddler bedtime pushback…that arrives before actual toddler bedtime pushback
…poem about forgiveness that gets you through a family get-together
…poignant take on loss that sustains you between grief support group meetings
…tough-love rant from your trainer to push for that marathon milestone
…reminders from a couple’s counselor to stop relationship ruptures
…profound observation from a meditation instructor about the nature of the mind
…serenity prayer that preempts a triggering social event
…ingenious strategy from your writing teacher to remove creative blocks
…or simply that morning mantra from your Higher Self that you are worthy of self-love

Create attentions for yourself, a friend, family member, client, support group, class, or large following.

PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ATTENTIONS:

• If your account is private, all your subscribers must be approved by you. Attentions cannot be shared with people outside the app via text, email, etc.

• If your account is public, anyone can subscribe to you, but attentions sent to yourself or selected individuals cannot be shared with others. Attentions sent to “all your subscribers” can be shared with people outside the app via text, email, etc., to allow your wisdom to spread widely.
