At a time where travel is difficult at best, Synctuition has created incredible, dream-like
soundscapes by recording 3D sounds in over 2000 of the world’s most serene locations. In
combination with ASMR sounds and hours of original music, Synctuition has gained immense
popularity as the only mindfulness app in the world with such a rich 3D audio relaxation
experience. The result is a profoundly relaxing experience that feels like a combination of mind
travel and a spa experience.
Now, Viber users will have access to meditation-themed sticker packs and push
notifications based on user-settings in the app, while also having a new chatbot that will greet
people upon downloading.

begins with mental health. By teaming up at a time of increasing uncertainty, and as people turn
to digital platforms to ease stress and cultivate optimal well-being, Viber and Synctuition are
bringing about a much-needed tone of positivity and inspiration. A welcomed change to the
negative headlines surrounding us all day.

Anna Znamenskaya, CGO of Rakuten Viber deems this team-up necessary, so people using
the Viber app have direct access to these tools. She shared, “In these challenging times, it's
essential to not only focus on our physical health but also on our mental health. Many people
don’t have access to these tools, or perhaps they’re unaware of them. Daily messages of positivity and access to the Synctuition app will surely help create healthier habits, which in turn
aids in keeping our mental health in check.”
Michael Burich, the Co-Founder of Synctuition, sees this as an unprecedented opportunity to
extend a helping hand amid adversity. He shared, we’re delighted to be able to offer more
people access to our platform. As we tackle the global COVID-19 pandemic together, we
believe it is our responsibility to help alleviate the stress people are under. Burich also
commented on the many benefits of mindfulness practices adding, one Synctuition
mindfulness journey a day can help users to decrease the negative effects of stress and
improve self-esteem.”
