Ania Wysocka: When I experienced my first panic attack. Like many, I had no idea what was happening and what I really wish existed was an accessible and affordable resource.
Rooted is anxiety and panic attack relief in your pocket. It contains immediate relief tools to help you in the moment. It also has a sleep support tool, active visualizations, a journal tool, lessons on what anxiety is, and it’s all gamified so you collect points as you go.
