Much excitement here at Enlighten today . . . After months in development, our very own free iPhone app is being launched to the world! Download the free app at
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/the-butterfly-effect/id465813126?ls=1&mt=8
to receive daily:
- AFFIRMATIONS — self-affirming messages to boost self-esteem and body image
- INSPIRATION — wise words from amazing women
- INFORMATION — web links to info every girl needs to know
The idea to create an app came to me when I tried (unsuccessfully) to find a cool-looking app with positive messages for Teyah and Jaz, my daughter and stepdaughter, who are 12 and 16.
Girls are bombarded every day with messages from the media and advertisers that their worth is all about their looks, and that ‘girl-power’ means being able to raunch it up. This app is an antidote! It’s designed to be fun and gorgeous looking, while providing a daily reminder that we are not just bodies, but somebodies.
We are offering this app free because we want to reach as many girls as we can with positive messages about body image, self-esteem and feminism — in a medium they enjoy and use every day. Let’s face it, we could all do with an alternative to the endless grind of messages telling us we’re not “enough” (thin enough/pretty enough/rich enough, etc.). Help us spread the love by telling everyone in your network!
