Spiral Up Lite: Break Free from Stress and Anxiety
Spiral Up Lite, developed by the Institute for Health Solutions, is a free iPhone lifestyle app designed to assist users in managing stress and anxiety effectively. The app focuses on breaking the cycle of overreacting to negative situations by prompting users to reflect on brain-savvy questions. By identifying the root causes of their reactions, users can regain control over their emotional well-being.
Launched by Laurel Mellin, PhD, a renowned health psychologist and bestselling author, Spiral Up Lite employs a unique approach known as Emotional Brain Training (EBT). Through a brief 1 to 3-minute session of answering thought-provoking questions, users can trigger the brain's neuroplasticity, releasing stress-induced chemicals and promoting the production of feel-good neurotransmitters. Unlike other similar apps, Spiral Up Lite solely concentrates on these questions, omitting additional features like meditations or quizzes. This streamlined focus enhances the app's efficacy in providing quick stress relief.
