“This experience is one of the new things we’re trying in our ongoing efforts to make Pinterest an inspiring and welcoming place for everyone,” wrote Annie Ta, Pinterest’s pinner product manager. “Our goal is to meet people where they are and connect them with tools they can take with them offline and do in their real lives at any time.”
Today we’re rolling out a collection of emotional well-being activities right on our app, from deep breathing to self-compassion exercises.

Pinterest stressed that users' interactions with the new well-being activities are"private and not connected to their account."
