Review: We Are Smile App
"Smile" is an app designed for individuals with chronic health conditions, such as myself, to improve their mental health. The We Are Smile app is a safe place to encourage and support self-care and wellness.
The We Are Smile app team sent me a gift box containing products and brands focused on individuals with chronic illnesses. They invited me to review their We Are Smile app and to join in on their 5-day challenge around 5 therapeutic approaches.
Taking control of our mental well-being.
Inside my lovely gift box:

Gem Valley Creations - included one of their beautiful wire bracelets. It's so easy to wear and adjustable to allow comfort.
Invivo Healthcare - included their Bio.Me Barrier Food Supplements - formulated to support good gut BarrierHealth and the gut-brain microbiome. It's both non-GMO and gluten-free.
Well The Brand - included one of their stainless steel water bottles, with a lovely personal written note, which was a lovely thought. They are a brand for women who love health, and wellbeing.
Twinnings - I found joy in using up the flavoured tea bags quickly, knowing that I was treating myself to something truly relaxing.

First Impressions:
Upon visiting The Smile app, I was greeted with a clean and visually appealing layout. The colours were soothing, and the site was easy to navigate, which is always a plus in my book. The homepage had a clear and simple design with a prominent section for wellness and mental health courses/challenges. The menu allowed me to explore different Therapists and their courses. I appreciated the simplicity of the site, as it made it easy for me to focus on the main purpose - finding positivity.
