Understanding the psychological rewards of bad habits
Creating new habits to replace old ones
Developing self-discipline

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
