Petals: Three Good Things

What did you do well today?

Petals is a small journal for the "three good things" exercise from positive psychology research. Each evening you write down three things you did well today. Tiny counts: getting up, a kind text, resting when you needed it. The trick is not the size of the thing, but the noticing.

Each good thing opens a petal. Write all three and your flower blooms, with a soft chime if you like. One more small thing? It adds a petal.

Every day you write on gets its own flower in your garden, and a small bird keeps you company. Walk back through the weeks and read what you noticed, or let your garden bring something back: remember this? Nothing written one day? That's okay.

Your flowers also shed spare petals. Gather them in your basket and make something small: a blueberry or a knitted scarf for the bird, or a birdbath, a pond, a swing or a little bridge for your garden. The bird uses what you make. Nothing to buy, and nothing is lost if you skip a few days.

Blanking? Tap what your day had and Petals suggests a few good things you probably did. Or walk through your day: write a few lines, answer a couple of questions, and find at least three things you did well. When your flower blooms, AI can write a short cheer about your day. This help is optional and only starts after you say yes.

Your journal stays on your iPhone and, with iCloud, in your own private iCloud, so nothing is lost on a new phone. No account, no ads, no analytics or tracking. AI help only sends the text it needs, and you can turn it off at any time in Settings.

A gentle nudge each day, at a time you choose.

Petals is a journal, not medical care.
