Feeling Good: Mental Health APK 3.1.11 Download

The Feeling Good: Mental Health app is approved by the NHS digital App library – a mark of its effectiveness, safety and good function.

The app contains the scientifically proven Positive Mental Training programme Feeling Good for Life a series of 12 Mental Health focussed audio tracks, an ‘upstream’ CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy) approach, to help you build essential skills, not only to deal with mental stresses and strains, but to bounce forwards and become mentally stronger and more resilient.

This programme combines deep relaxation, mindfulness and meditation with Olympic sports coaching techniques to:
* Develop deep relaxation to calm your mind and body and support your mental health and wellbeing
* Lift your mood, helping you feel more positive and relieve symptoms of depression
* Let go of worries and aid in anxiety relief
* Sleep better and deal with stress more easily.
* Increase motivation and confidence to help you reach your goals

It can also help with physical symptoms of stress, such as headaches, irritable bowel, fatigue and chronic pain. It improves your ability to focus on a task, to feel positive about yourself when talking to others, to perform at your best when you need to.

Like traditional CBT, these audios can help change your thinking patterns, which will change your behaviour and generate more positive feelings. Just as repeating physical exercise builds muscle strength, so with repeated listening to our audios you can build mental strength.

There are other modules on the app, to help you sleep better, feel positive about ageing, stop smoking, be your ideal weight and a new Help for Long Covid module. They contain the same beginning tracks from Feeling Good for Life to give you a good foundation.

The app is free to download with free access to several tracks. Unlock the whole app with a referral code or a one-time payment. Cool features – choice of reader and music including relaxing nature sounds. Track your listening progress with growing leaves and monitor your mood at 2 and 7 weeks.

Listening to this app is not a substitute for medical diagnosis, advice or treatment. We recommend that you read the guidance on use in the setting tab, before listening to the tracks.

How it started
The tracks in Feeling Good for Life started out as audio CDs, when Dr Alastair Dobbin, a GP and Dr Sheila Ross, a health promotion specialist, teamed up. They wanted to help people build good mental health and so adapted a Swedish Olympic Sports performance programme, drawn to its positive self-development focus, rather than a clinical illness-based approach. Since then research has demonstrated its ability to build positive emotions and good psychological functioning, as well as recovery from depression and anxiety. The App is used in the NHS by staff for their own benefit as well as their patients and recommended in Public Health England ‘Every Mind Matters’ campaign.

We are working on making the Feeling Good App as accessible as possible so everyone who wants to can use the app. Please read our accessibility statement here: https://www.feelinggood.app/feeling-good-app-accessibility-statement/
