Frequently Asked Questions

Resurface is your personal AI emotional coach. It offers eight coach-guided energy games based on the teachings of Abraham-Hicks, each designed to help you reach for slightly better-feeling thoughts — one at a time — until you find clarity, hope, or beyond. It's like having a wise friend who understands emotions and knows exactly how to help you feel better.

Not at all! The app teaches you the process as you use it. Whether you're familiar with Abraham-Hicks or have never heard of them, the emotional guidance principles work the same way. Think of it as emotional intelligence training with a proven 30+ year track record. You don't need to believe in Law of Attraction, or anything, for that matter — the practical techniques work regardless of your personal beliefs.

Most apps just track your mood or tell you to "think positive" or "be grateful." Resurface actively helps you shift your emotional state. Instead of logging that you feel frustrated, it guides you to find thoughts you actually believe that feel better. It's coaching, not just tracking. And it never asks you to make impossible jumps from sadness to joy.

The AI coach is specifically guided in Abraham-Hicks emotional guidance principles. It understands the 22-point emotional scale and knows which thoughts are accessible from each emotional state. It's like having a coach who's studied these methods for years and can guide you through the process with wisdom and patience.

You will feel shifts within minutes of using the app. That's the beauty of the incremental approach — you're not trying to force huge emotional leaps. When you find a thought that feels even slightly better, you'll feel the relief immediately.

It's subtle, but powerful. Just like the 1% better concept, the real power occurs over time. Regular incremental shifts yield palpable knowledge and experience of your own control over your emotions, your thoughts, your state, your being, and the ripple effects of all those as they reverberate out from you to everything you touch.

Resurface is an emotional guidance tool, not therapy. It's designed to help you navigate daily emotional challenges and develop better emotional habits. If you're dealing with serious mental health issues, trauma, or clinical depression, please continue working with qualified mental health professionals. Many users find Resurface works beautifully alongside therapy.

Perfect! Prove us wrong. You don't need to believe in Law of Attraction to benefit from better emotional management. The techniques are practical and results-oriented — if they help you feel better, that's all that matters. Think of it as emotional intelligence training rather than LOA, New Age, or spiritual. It just works.

All you need to know is that there are really just two emotions. One feels good, one feels bad. But if you are trying to feel better, it pays to get a little more specific! A list of emotion-words in front of you to pick from helps when feeling big emotions. You may not jump from anger to joy, but you can get to frustration. You may not want to stay there, but it's slightly better, and it may be all you have access to. Resurface's fully interactive scale shows you. You explore it until you can pinpoint where you are.

Yes. All conversations are stored locally on your device. No account required, no tracking, no data sales. The only data sent externally is for AI processing, and it's not stored or associated with your identity. Your emotional work stays yours.
