co·soma noun
co, with, together, as in connection. soma, from the Greek: the body, felt from inside.
A place made for our inner sensations to be shared.
What we value
Built for presence, not performance.
Listening is the point.
There's no feed, no likes, no streaks and no numbers. Nothing in Cosoma counts you.
Your own voice.
You speak, and replies come back in a human voice. A voice carries feeling that typed words leave out.
Met, not fixed.
A reply is there to understand you, not to fix you or cheer you up. We stay near a feeling, with warmth, long enough for it to be felt.
Safe enough to be honest.
You go by a name you choose, the community is moderated, and who answered you is never named.
Why it works
We're made to feel better together.
Most of what helps us happens between people. Cosoma is built around that, and only that.
We're social animals.
Underneath a lot of what we call wellbeing is a simple kind of safety: knowing that someone understands us and is with us in our world. When that's missing, everything is a bit harder, even on good days.
Being gotten changes things.
When someone hears how it really is with you and reflects it back with kindness, the body settles. There's room to feel what was too much alone.
