About This Project

In a personal endeavor to help people improve their mindfulness and productivity, I developed the Instagram filter "Gimnasio Estoico" ("Stoic Gym"). This filter is designed to introduce users to modern Stoic rituals that can be seamlessly incorporated into their daily routines, either at the start or end of the day. Inspired by my daily practices with the Stoic app, this filter aims to promote a more conscious lifestyle, support mental health, and boost productivity.
