Powered by research, Take 2 Minutes provides easily accessible, engaging mental health activities designed to improve your day to day life. Our messages and reminders are delivered via our proprietary text messaging system.
Take 2 Minutes uses text messages. 92% of text messages are read by the recipient within 3 minutes!
Competitors use app notifications on your mobile device. Notifications from a mobile app are only read 24% of the time.
It costs us more money to text you, but we feel that if we are really trying to help people,
then we should communicate using a means that actually reaches the people wanting help.
The ability to quickly make a gratitude journal entry via text message has been the differentiator that helped me be successful at gratitude journaling.

Take 2 Minutes was built to be used in the real world, by real people who want to better themselves. Take 2 Minutes is purposefully not a mobile app that you simply download and forget. We use texting (SMS) because we want our positive messages, gratitude reminders, daily meditations, nudges, and other activities to actually reach you and for you to see them. This is why our service is delivered via text messages instead of a mobile app with notifications that are easy for you to ignore. Take 2 Minutes was built to be engaging so our activities can help you get into a better mindset and be more positive.
