About Pixel Thoughts: Mindfulness
Pixel Thoughts is interactive mindfulness. Type what's on your mind and watch it shrink into the stars, while a short meditation written for that thought helps you let it go.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Type what's weighing on you
2. Watch your thought shrink into the cosmos
3. Read a meditation written for your thought
4. Feel lighter
Choose your length, type of meditation and music right under the thought box. Want the original 60-second meditation? Pick Classic.
CLINICALLY STUDIED
The original Pixel Thoughts meditation was the intervention tool in a randomized controlled trial at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, published in Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research (Westenberg et al., 2018). It's still in the app as Classic.
After a single 60-second session, participants reported:
- 29% fewer anxiety symptoms
- 30% less depression
- 44% less anger
- 13% less pain
Four research publications, three peer-reviewed, including two randomized controlled trials.

super calming and helpfull sometimes they way it helps brings me to tears
A genuinely lovely and heartwarming app
It's really a comforting experience..
it's not even been few hours. i like this app so much as a fan of universe this feels like a blessing from universe itself to me ~☆
I love this app, I remember I tried it for the first time when it was only on the web, and when I did the pixel thoughts meditation, I was crying when watching my thoughts getting small and vanishing:) and I saw that it actually worked and I felt less overwhelmed and more connected to myself. Thank you💗
this app is just amazing , even if nobody understand you or if u can't tell ur feelings , this app understands you, it is not like an AI like chatgpt which only gives u a helpline number whenever u r sad , this app relaxes alot , and helps through difficult time , must download this app, worth more then thousands of AI
