What is the science behind the app?

THAP uses specific interventions within our control as human beings to self-regulate through self-awareness. When practised regularly, these interventions override unhelpful brain conditions and rewire the brain to a happier and more fulfilling mindset by modifying the actual neural network of brain cells.

 

THAP employs therapy forms derived from CBT, DBT, REBT, affirmation therapy, reflective therapy &  mindfulness.

 

THAP helps the user make bio behavioural changes to embrace mental wellness through a well-balanced and managed mind.
