Discover Your Emotions

[Dennis Gecaj @dennisgec]

Every emotion you experience is trying to tell you something. Most of us just never learned how to listen.

We grow up learning six emotions, but humans can actually feel thousands. That gap is where the confusion, the burnout, the "I don't know why I feel this way" lives.

That's why I built @HeartspringApp. The journal that finds the emotions underneath and tells you not just what you felt, but what those feelings are actually pointing at.

Introducing Flashbacks for @HeartspringApp.

We rarely look back at old journal entries or memories. And when we do, it's not always easy. It's often raw and unfiltered.

So we built Flashbacks. Every week, one memory comes back to life, beautifully written, beautifully illustrated.

A short story from your own life.

The blank journal page is a design problem, not a discipline problem.

So we fixed it... emotionally.

@HeartspringApp shows you emotion-based prompts right from your home screen. Browse between signals in the app. Find the one that connects and start sharing.

With Recaps on Heartspring, you can finally see how your emotions connect to what you went through.

A day after you journal, your Recap is ready.

Tap into any emotion to see which topics it showed up in, or explore the analysis to see how your emotions and experiences fit together.

Excited to share @heartspringapp, a journal for what emotions you actually feel.

When we talk about how we feel, we oftentimes say we’re “down.” Or “fine.” Or “alright.” Naming the exact emotions is much more difficult, but so much more powerful.

Heartspring helps you find those exact emotions.

Not just down, but overwhelm, doubt, and shame.
Not just alright, but relief, gratitude, and calmness.

Here is how it works 🧵👇

Some of our most engaged users opened @talkbookapp this week and saw this invite screen.

Early access to the next chapter of Talkbook.

Quietly rolling it out. More soon!

Excited to share the biggest release of Talkbook since I launched it.

It’s the first journal that writes itself … kind of.

Here’s how it works:

[Dennis Gecaj @dennisgec]

Launched a video journal called @talkbookapp last year, and it recently crossed 100K signed-up users (just wild to see). Tomorrow is yet another big milestone since releasing it. Can’t wait to share more soon!

We couldn’t agree more!

make journaling easier

don't try to "think" or "ponder"

just say "what do I want to remember from today?"
