And when you are, it's tough to meditate without having the stressful thoughts slip back in. Fortunately, with Stress Ball, you can interact with your phone and clear your mind with exercises, fidgets and videos within the app. There are five different tabs you can use to calm down: Breathe, Fidget, ChillTok, Color & Reflect\n\nIn the Breathe tab, there are breathing exercises to help you take deep breaths and calm down. You can customize your experience with relaxing sounds and backgrounds. The phone also vibrates and provides various animations to distract your thoughts.\n\nIn the Fidget tab, there are virtual fidgets and toys you can play with to distract your mind and let out all of your anxious energy on the app. The fidgets also provide vibration and audio feedback to help you feel more relaxed.\n\nIn the Feel tab, you can tap on ASMR sounds and feel the vibrations of the sounds!! These vibrations are super calming to the body and mind. Give it a try!!\n\nIn the Color tab, you can complete vibrating color by numbers. Coloring can help soothe your mind and distract you away from your stress. It also is great for fidgeting when feeling anxious or restless.\n\nIn the Reflect tab, you can journal and reflect about your feelings and emotions. You can also talk through your feelings with StressBot, an AI chat companion. You can also swipe through a lot of different types of quotes, such as Positive, Affirmations, Self-Love and Stress Relief. You also can record a smile everyday to lift your mood!\n\nIn all these tabs you can play super calming soundscapes while interacting with the exercises and videos. Simply press the music icon in the top right corner and select from many different soothing music and noises.\n\nHave a great time using Stress Ball and we hope you find which options work the best for relieving your anxiety!\n\nSTRESS BALL PRO\n\nStress Ball offers an optional, auto-renewing monthly subscription for $4.99/month, or an annual subscription for $29.99.
