Life can be stressful. Over two thirds of people report that their day-to-day stress is unmanageable. But the good news? Stress itself isn't always a negative thing! We can actually use stress to motivate us when tackling our daily challenges. But because it's hard to think clearly about managing stress when life gets tough, thinkFull exists. By providing tools and techniques, thinkFull helps you understand your stress and work towards a healthier life through personalized tips and suggestions. thinkFull will help you take control of how you deal with the stress in your life.
How we became thinkFull
TELUS, a Canadian Telecom provider, is committed to giving back to the community. A year ago it launched its first ever Social Enterprise competition to encourage entrepreneurial and community spirit amongst its team members. We were chosen to be part in this initiative and our passion is to drive change in the area of mental wellbeing.
Each of us at thinkFull has a personal story to share about difficult circumstances, life transitions, and the stress that accompanies it. As our reliance on smartphones grows, we believe that we can harness their utility to help others manage stress more effectively. In collaboration with a number of volunteers and supporters like Dr. Stan Kutcher, CMHA BC, Here to Help BC, mindyourmind, MJB Technologies and Kelty Resource Centre, we have been able to make this app available to you.
