16 Associations
Discover what your subconscious is saying
16 Associations is a quiet, guided word-association exercise that helps you explore a question from a new angle. Begin with something on your mind, capture the first sixteen words that come to you, and connect them through a 16 → 8 → 4 → 2 → 1 process until one revealing core word remains.
The result is not an answer handed to you. It is a trail of your own associations that you can reflect on in your own way.
Available for iPhone and Android. 16 Associations is a personal reflection tool, not therapy, diagnosis, medical treatment or psychological advice.
