Some moments are just hard.
Not because something is wrong with you.
Because you’re human — and some states are too much to sit with alone.
When your mind needs a place to pause
My Self Tree offers practical tools you can use whenever the world feels too loud — each one built for one specific difficult moment.

That’s okay. You don’t have to.
No app. No subscription. No effort required.
What is My Self Tree
It is not a course, a meditation, a mental health app, or an endless 12-week programs. No noisy communities to keep up with. No addictive wellness apps sending you daily notifications.
It is a single, private page — accessible anytime, from any device — built for one specific mental or emotional state. You open it. Press play. And let it carry you through.
Inside, you’ll find audio for different intensities of the moment, grounding words, and quiet things to carry with you.
Just you, and a place that meets you exactly where you are.
How it works
What actually happens when you enter
1. You arrive
Open your private page via a simple link and password received right after purchase. No login or setup. Bookmark it once — it’s always there.
2. You press play
Choose an audio based on how intense your moment is (short for starting spirals, longer for deeper support). Just listen.
3. It carries you through
By the end, the moment is different. Not fixed. Just more bearable.
The page is yours forever whenever the moment returns.
Places to pause
Each place to pause is designed to be used when you have the least capacity to search for help.
One payment, lifetime 24/7 access, 100% offline-downloadable.
Available now
For moments when anxiety peaks and you can’t think your way out of it.

It’s your private, permanent place to pause you can return to 24/7.
Why I built this
Andrew, founder of My Self Tree
I built My Self Tree because I couldn’t find what I actually needed during hard moments.
Not another app. Not a course I had to commit to. Just something that could meet me in the middle of a difficult night and help me get through it.
Everything here comes from my own experience with anxiety, and years of learning what actually helps when thinking clearly isn’t possible.
What’s coming next
More places to pause are coming — each one for a different moment.
What I am building next:
- When thoughts won’t stop looping (Overthinking & Panic) — Coming Summer 2026
- When the weight of the day becomes too much — Coming Summer 2026
If you’d like to know when the next one is ready, choose the states that feel familiar and leave your email.
You’ll get one email from me. When it’s ready. No newsletters.

Why you wake up at 3am with anxiety — and what it means
You weren’t worrying yourself awake. You were asleep — and then suddenly you weren’t, heart already racing, mind already spiraling. Waking up at 3am with anxiety has a specific biological cause, and it’s more ordinary than it feels. Here’s what’s actually happening, and what it doesn’t mean.
Why “Just breathe” fails for anxiety — and what to do
Someone told you to just breathe — and in the moment, it didn’t work. Here’s why that advice is technically correct and practically incomplete, what it leaves out about how anxiety affects your brain, and what actually helps when breathing alone isn’t enough.
What anxiety does to you even when it’s quiet
No racing heart. No looping thoughts. And yet you’re exhausted in a way that doesn’t quite make sense. This is the part of anxiety nobody talks about — the depletion that lingers long after the episode is over. Here’s what it actually is, and why it’s not in your head.
