We're always working to make your experience better. This update includes performance improvements and big fixes!

IBS relief through the gut-brain connection. The Calm Gut uses gut-directed hypnotherapy, self-hypnosis and CBT to ease symptoms like bloating, abdominal pain, cramps, constipation, diarrhoea and urgency, and to calm the anxiety and stress that fuel flare-ups. Also suitable for people living with functional dyspepsia, reflux, GERD symptoms and other gut-brain disorders, and as support alongside IBD care. Created by Jayne Corner, a psychotherapist and gut-directed hypnotherapist who has helped thousands of people with IBS since 2017, the app gives you 250+ audio sessions and structured programs, including the 28-Day Mind-Gut Reset. Why the gut-brain connection matters IBS is a disorder of gut-brain interaction. Stress, anxiety and a sensitised nervous system can turn up the volume on gut signals, so normal digestion feels painful and flare-ups keep coming back. Gut-directed hypnotherapy and CBT work on the gut-brain axis itself, helping to calm gut sensitivity rather than simply avoiding triggers. Research has found gut-directed hypnotherapy to be similarly effective to the low FODMAP diet for IBS*. With The Calm Gut you can: - Ease digestive symptoms including pain, bloating, cramps, constipation, diarrhoea and urgency - Reduce gut anxiety, stress and flare-ups - Overcome food anxiety and enjoy eating again - Rebuild trust and confidence in your body - Sleep better and feel calmer day to day Support for every type of IBS Whether you have IBS-C, IBS-D or IBS-M, and whether you are newly diagnosed or have lived with IBS for years, you'll find sessions for your symptoms.
