Mindfulness in Everyday Life
In an increasingly digital and fast-paced society, we are constantly exposed to a flood of information and pressure to perform. This makes it all the more important to find a balance that brings peace to both body and mind. Two UW/H graduates, Jonas Leve and Manuel Ronnefeldt, have taken on this challenge and founded the start-up 7Mind in 2014. Their meditation app is designed to help users relax, build resilience, improve their focus and get a better night’s sleep. Under the motto ‘Relaxation on the go’, a wide range of integrated mindfulness exercises and meditation courses are available on your smartphone at any time and can be flexibly incorporated into your daily routine.
Mental health is receiving increasing attention and is just as important as physical fitness. This made it all the more important to the two founders to demystify the topic of mindfulness with the help of 7Mind and to introduce beginners to meditation. As the name suggests, just seven minutes a day are needed to develop a meditation routine step by step and become noticeably more relaxed and content.
Their success proves them right: more than 2 million Germans use the 7Mind app regularly. Behind the start-up today is a large team of authors, scientists, product developers and marketing experts who are constantly refining the content, functionality, design and quality to optimise the user experience. Through networking with companies and health insurance providers, 7Mind’s certified programmes have already been incorporated into many (workplace) prevention and health programmes.
