MindUp is a tool that helps uplift your mind by building a better mindset and developing the habit of positive thinking

Your mindset plays a very important role in what you can achieve and realize in life. Scientific research shows that a more positive mindset leads to more happiness, satisfaction, self-esteem, health, resilience and success.

MindUp uses a scientifically proven method to build a better mindset. You start with a simple exercise where you only need to register 5 positive experiences per day.

Numerous scientific studies find that registering only 5 positive things per day for a couple of weeks has a positive effect on our mindset that lasts for several months.

Some of the findings of these studies are as follows.
