Mindful Humans

👋 Hey Product Hunt — I’m suuuper excited to share Mindful Makers! 👉 We are a community of ~250 makers, creators, and founders to track mental and physical health with a bot, to connect with awesome people, and learn from each other to become happier and healthier. 👉 I sought to create a community that wasn't necessarily focused on work, but rather all aspects of life, with undertones of mindfulness and self-growth. We use Telegram as our platform. ❗ There are 500 available spots. If we reach capacity, there’s a waitlist for registration. If a member leaves, the next person in line will gain access. "Mindful Makers is a broad topic group for people trying to find their way in life.” — @levelsio - - - - 💬 Group chat In our main group chat, members have deep, nuanced, comedic, philosophical, insightful, tragic, sexual, uplifting discussions — nothing is off-limits. Many people share their thoughts, feelings, and anything that has been on their mind. Members also log things like sleep and exercises using the bot. 🤖 Bot We have a bot that allows you to log meditation sessions, sleep, happiness levels, anxiety levels, exercises, time spent fasting, and journal entries. 🌍 Language clubs Want to learn and practice Spanish, Germany, Chinese, English? In our language clubs, you can chat with people in real-time in the language of your choice. 📚 Book club We all want to read more but hardly find the time. Each month, community members read one or two books together, and analyze and discuss. 🧠 Mastermind group A group of 5-10 people per session deeply exploring their values, habits, goals, motivations, and desires with one another. - - - - Let me know if you have any questions!

I think chat groups aren't the future anymore, they're literally our lives right now. Most of me and my friends stay in touch through chat groups, and where every niche used to have a web forum, now it has a chat group. I'm in groups with my Dutch friends, my nomad friends, my startup friends, people who are indie makers, groups where we discuss relationships etc. Everybody is all about voice is the future but I think text is underrated. Unlike voice, text is private. Writing (in text) is therapeutical as we know from writing diaries. Groups focused on mental well-being like Mindful Makers (M2) work because of text. Whether we like it or not, most of our social life now happens through text. More interesting w.r.t startups is how these communities are shown to be relatively easily monetizable by charging for access. It keeps groups somewhat smaller and private so that people can know the people in it better, instead of a giant public group where people shy away from telling their real thoughts and feelings. I hope to see @joshvoydik expand into also offering paid mental coaching through Telegram chats in sub fields like well-being, relationships and dating, even executive coaching sounds like an interesting market too.

I have a lot of love for this community. As a founder, it helps keep me grounded, with conversations covering such a wide spectrum, I’m constantly learning something new. Very genuine, caring people, that want to see each other succeed 💙
