Tackle Your Feelings [iPhone]

Tackle Your Feelings is a completely free bespoke positive mental wellbeing app which aims to empower you to live your best life.

By working through this app, you can build and maintain your positive mental wellbeing resources which will enable you to boost your overall feelings of positive well-being. Backed by scientific research TYF is based on the principles of both sport and positive psychology with the aim to enable you to become the best version of yourself. There is no set path that you must take, rather you will be able to choose your starting point and work through the various exercises, pick up tips and useful information and set goals which will help you achieve a happier and healthier life. TYF will allow you to check in with yourself and your own mental wellbeing, record the things that contribute to your happiness and take note of the things that don’t. All with the guidance and opinions of some of Ireland’s top rugby stars to help you along the way.

You can test your mental wellbeing with scientifically validated questionnaires which can help you become more aware of your own mental health. Measure your happiness, perceived stress, and overall wellbeing. These are not designed to be a diagnostic tool, rather they help you be honest with yourself, how you are feeling and help get you started on your journey of taking control of your own positive mental wellbeing.

This app has areas which will specifically focus on the following mental wellbeing resources:

- Relationships

- Confidence

- Happiness/Sadness

- Stress/ Worry

- Sleep

- Self-care

- Resilience

- Anger

- Relaxation

- Optimism

- Self-awareness

Each resource in the app comes with sections which have been expertly identified to contribute to your ability to enhance that personal resource. In some cases, these sections will appear in multiple resources, that is because the tools found in these sections can have a positive influence on more than one resource. They include:
