Myrra

Most people give more attention to their teeth than their mind. Myrra changes that by including mental hygiene into your daily bathroom routine. It is a smart bathroom mirror and personal wellbeing advisor that keeps an eye on your mood and helps you live a happier, healthier and more productive life. It gets to know you through conversation and its superhuman observational abilities, and recognises patterns you might have missed yourself.

 

Thanks to its knowledge of psychology and self-improvement techniques it gives relevant tips to reframe your thinking and boost your mood. It does not judge you or ask you about your childhood. It just guides you thorough your struggles and helps you get more out of your life.
