pause

making it easier for young, time-pressed professionals to focus on and emotional well-being and engage in self-care.

take a pause

Consistently performed meditative practices train the mind in attention, focus, and spatial awareness, which assist in maintaining mental and emotional health.

Pause is a dedicated space to practice micro-meditation and reflect on emotional well-being, allowing our active users to also be part of an anonymous community of individuals who share the common goal of dedicating time to their emotional state.

With both individual and social means of micro-meditation, we make it simple and convenient for time-pressed professionals to not only actively engage in self-care but to also become more comfortable doing so.
