Inspiration
Lotus was inspired by focus attention (FA) meditation, a practice where individuals concentrate on a single object of focus, such as the breath. Research shows that consistent FA meditation reduces the size and reactivity of the Amygdala, a brain region associated with stress, fear, and anxiety.
Although meditation is a widely recommended resource for improving mental health, many people struggle to integrate it into their daily routines. Students in particular often experience high levels of academic, social, and personal pressure but lack accessible tools to help them regulate their emotions and build sustainable mindfulness habits.
Lotus was created to make meditation, mental health support, and emotional awareness easier to integrate into everyday life. With consistent progress, users will become more bodily aware of themselves.
What it does
Lotus is a wellness app designed to provide meditation, therapy access, and community support. The app allows users to:
- Schedule Focused Attention meditation sessions
- Track emotional patterns
- Book professional therapy sessions
- Chat with a supportive community
- Interact with an AI therapy companion
How we built it
We designed Lotus using Figma Design, focusing on a friendly and calming interface that supports growth and progression.
What's next for Lotus
We hope Lotus can expand beyond a prototype into a fully developed wellness platform.
