Have a lot going on in your head and need a way to work through it?
If you’re human, you probably answered yes.
Decades of research make clear that we benefit significantly from letting out our thoughts and feelings, and sharing them with others.
That’s why humanStreams exists.
Born from research that began at Stanford University’s School of Medicine, humanStreams is a therapeutic journaling app. It features hundreds of thoughtfully crafted prompts designed to help you reflect and connect with yourself in a deep way. You can also share a reflection with a close confidant in your life, sparking conversation and bringing you closer together.
It's simple
Let us recommend a prompt, choose one from our 250+ collection, or dive in without one.
