Roots - Calm Mind Wisdom

About this product

Feeling overwhelmed? Take 5 minutes. Roots brings you a daily lesson in calm, drawn from 2,500 years of philosophy, distilled for the racing modern mind. Modern life is loud. Notifications, deadlines, the inner critic that won't shut up. Most apps add to the noise. Roots was built to be the opposite: a small, slow, daily moment with the thinkers who've helped restless minds for centuries. A NEW LESSON EVERY MORNING Each day, you receive a 3-to-5-minute lesson, a single idea from a philosopher, written in plain language and built for someone who hasn't read philosophy since high school. No jargon. No 600-page books. Just one idea, one day, one calmer mind. THE THINKERS YOU'LL MEET - Marcus Aurelius on coping with anxious thoughts - Buddha on letting go of what you can't control - Seneca on dealing with stress - Lao Tzu on flowing with change - Plus, Socrates, Confucius, Aristotle, Rumi, Zhuangzi, Epicurus, and more LEARNING PATHS WHEN YOU NEED MORE When a topic grabs you, follow a curated path: lessons grouped around a theme like inner peace, dealing with criticism, finding meaning, letting go. 5 to 8 lessons per path, at your own rhythm. WHO ROOTS IS FOR People who feel mentally overloaded. People curious about philosophy but intimidated by it. People who want a daily practice that grounds them, not another habit tracker that guilts them. NO STREAKS, NO PRESSURE We don't punish you for missing a day. No streak counter, no guilt notifications. Roots is a place to come back to, not a chore that competes with your inbox.
