Hi Product Hunt community!
I’m a developer currently focused on creating apps that make life feel "lighter."
I built Cinderella Heal because I had a past I didn't want to remember. I realized that instead of hiding from it, I wanted to go back and offer a hand to the person I used to be.
In Japanese culture, we have a beautiful phrase: "Ganbattane." It’s more than just "good job"—it’s a deep acknowledgement of someone’s struggle and perseverance. Even if you don't speak Japanese, I hope the frequency of that voice and the movement of the shooting stars brings you peace.
Please take 3 minutes for yourself today. I’d love to hear how this experience felt for you."Would you like to visit who you used to be?"
We all carry memories that still sting—moments from our school days or past lives that we wish we could soothe. On this New Moon, a time for new beginnings and internal reflection, I created Cinderella Heal.
It is not a complex tool; it is a 3-minute digital sanctuary.
How it works:
The Threshold: Open the door to your memory.
The Encounter: Face the silhouette of your past self.
The Words: Send the words you needed to hear back then.
The Release: Watch your pain transform into shooting stars, accompanied by a gentle voice message of "You did your best."
Created with a minimalist aesthetic and a poetic interface, this app is for anyone who needs to let go of the "ash" and find their "glow."
Note: The final voice message is in Japanese ("Ganbattane"), a soft embrace across languages meaning "You’ve done so well.

After 30 years of witnessing students, I made this small app to turn hidden shadows into constellations. Thank you for being here.
