Yesterday, the results of a pilot study on HelloMinds’s effect on itching caused by atopic eczema were presented at Aarhus Universitetshospital in Denmark. The headline was:

“Hypnosis on an app actually works”

We are not surprised but very happy that the study shows such good results for people with atopic eczema. We are looking forward to seeing more studies about hypnosis and HelloMind.

“HelloMind is an app, that coaches without a coach and provides therapy without a therapist.”

Last week we were in Paris to explain how to relieve stress, bad sleep, unhealthy habits and low self-esteem – just using an app and a pair of headphones at home from the couch. We were selected as one of the top 10 ideas out of 368 very different proposals from all over Europe to the “Start Here Awards 2017”. Photo: Girls & Tech : Meet StartHer

September 16th 2017, New Orleans:
HelloMind wishes to push forward the development of digital services that are used to improve mental well-being. That is why we have sent our CEO Jacob Strachotta out into the world to tell everyone about our app.

Here he is on stage in New Orleans talking about HelloMind at the 30th annual Psych Congress. The theme was “Disrupting Mental Illness”.

FYI, Jacob is the guy with the white shirt and no jacket.

After Kay was in a car accident she have been terrified of driving. And that is a huge problem because she lives in L.A., where driving is necessary. She tried HelloMind, and it helped a lot.

HelloMind has been named one of the Best Anxiety Apps of the Year again by HealthLine.

“Anxiety can hinder your ability to enjoy a happy, fulfilling life. Luckily, learning to better manage anxiety is possible! Whether seeking professional treatment or individually coping with anxiety, we found some apps that can help in your healing journey.” – HelloMind is one of those apps.

In June 2017, HelloMind received support for the HYPE-IT pilot project in collaboration with Aarhus University Hospital. The project is the first of its kind in Denmark and investigates whether HelloMind can reduce itching due to atopic eczema.

Sam was an Iraqi ‘post war child’ with PTSD, depression, anxiety and very low self confidence. He was very skeptical about hypnotherapy, but tried HelloMind out of desperation. And it worked. He got rid of the depression and anxiety and he got the self confidence to follow his dream to become a realtor.

Josh and Tracy did not sleep almost every night because of worries about their sick daughter:

“Our daughter was diagnosed with a low grade optic pathway glioma brain tumor, she is about to be four years old, and she has gone through two and a half years of chemo. And a lot of sleepless nights and sickness.”

There are many who wonder what hypnosis is and why it works. Therefore, we made a short video that explains it.

Olivers sleeping problems had a negative effect on his social life, because he didn’t have the energy to see friends and family. He has tried al sorts of medicine, but nothing has been working. Watch the short video here.

A recent study have discovered that distinct areas of the brain show altered activity and connectivity during hypnotic trances in individuals who are highly hypnotizable:

“In patients who can be easily hypnotized, hypnosis sessions have been shown to be effective in lessening chronic pain, the pain of childbirth and other medical procedures; treating smoking addiction and post-traumatic stress disorder; and easing anxiety or phobias. The new findings about how hypnosis affects the brain might pave the way toward developing treatments for the rest of the population — those who aren’t naturally as susceptible to hypnosis.”
