The first and only anxiety treatment you can play
The App for Reducing Stress and Anxiety
Personal Zen is a scientifically validated app for reducing stress and anxiety by building positive habits of attention.
Backed by Research
Personal Zen is based on 20 years of clinical and neuroscience research. Clinical studies show that Personal Zen effectively decreases stress and anxiety when used for only a few minutes a day, several times a week.
Designed for Relaxation
Take your time to explore the peaceful regions of Personal Zen – it’s the journey, not the destination that matters.
Stress and Anxiety Relief Anytime
Reduce your stress and feelings of anxiety in as little as one sitting. Use for longer periods of time to build stress resilience or combat stronger feelings of anxiety. Remember, much like exercising a muscle, positive focus takes practice.
Use at Your Own Pace
Use Personal Zen during breaks in your day or longer sessions while relaxing at home.
Reduce anxiety and build resilience to stress with Personal Zen.
Personal Zen is a science-based brain-training exercise created to reduce stress and anxiety within minutes and build resilience over time. Using a clinically validated algorithm, Personal Zen recharges our mental batteries by training our brains to focus on the positive instead of the negative. Personal Zen users experience stress and anxiety reduction after using Personal Zen a few minutes a day, 4-5 days a week.

Can’t Fight This Feeling: Technology and Teen Anxiety

As featured on Psychology Today.
Anxiety disorders will affect over 90 million people in their lifetime, in the U.S. alone. That’s approaching a third of our population. Yet, only a small fraction of us receive effective, long-lasting treatment. This is especially alarming given the increasing rates of teen anxiety and suicide over the past decade. News outlets like the New York Times and The Economist have been sounding the alarm.
