Welcome to Tough Minds

Tough Minds exists to help you control your emotions - rather than letting your emotions control you.

Over the last decade, there's been an abundance of awareness about mental health. While that work has been important, every metric on mental illness has gone in the wrong direction. When life gets hard, slogans don’t hold you up. Skills do.

Tough Minds is here to help everyone build skills.

We build games and tools to train emotional resilience — one core skill at a time.

You'll get better at

→ Naming what you feel

→ Spotting distorted thoughts and reframing them

→ Identifying, mapping and managing triggers

→ Finding steadier ways to cope in crisis

And many more crucial skills.

These are things you can learn. Things you can train. And we think everyone should have access to them. Whether you’re thriving, surviving, or somewhere in between.

Over the next few months, we’ll be launching new tools, writing about the science behind them, and sharing what we’re learning as we go.

Thanks for being part of the journey!
