The Science Behind Nebbi

WHY IT WORKS

Nebbi blends trusted psychology with real-life usability:

  • CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) helps you gently interrupt unhelpful thought spirals and build new, healthier patterns.

  • Emotion Regulation offers a simple way to increase emotional awareness so you can respond, not just react.

  • Affect Labeling (naming your feelings) reduces brain reactivity and increases emotional control.

Polyvagal Theory shows how calming the nervous system through small, body-based actions, like breathing or sensory grounding, can shift your whole state.

WHAT EACH FEATURE DOES

  • Emotional Check-Ins: Helps you name layered emotions in-the-moment, so you can track how you really feel over time.

  • Personalized Resets: Offers quick, therapist-designed tools—like breathwork, movement, or reframing—to help you feel more steady and centered.

  • Feedback Loop: Lets you reflect on what helped, so Nebbi can learn what supports you best.

  • Weekly Insights: Translates your emotional patterns into gentle, useful takeaways you can actually use.

DESIGNED TO REGULATE, NOT OVERWHELM

Colors that support reflection: Emotions are visually paired with specific tones, like cool blues for sadness and soft neutrals for calm, to encourage intuitive emotional awareness.

  • Subtle breathing rhythm: You’ll notice slow, pulsing animations that follow a 3-second inhale and 3-second exhale, gently signaling your body to settle, without needing instructions.

WHAT YOU’LL GAIN
