What happens in a Dyad?

The Humanize Dyad is peer-to-peer self-reflection in the presence of a supportive listener, held securely online through the Humanize app, and based on decades of social neuroscience research.

It is not therapy, coaching, or advice-giving. Instead, partners take turns sharing about daily difficult emotions and gratitude while the other partner listens. It is a short but powerful practice to reflect, connect with another human being, and build social and emotional skills, all in just 15 minutes a day.

The Humanize App guides you and your partner through each step of the Dyad practice, and you change partners each week, giving you the chance to connect with many different people.

"I just did the third day of the Dyads, and wow, I love it soooo much. I think this is like really, the real deal. This method is really on to something I think. What a beautiful practice. I am enjoying it so much already.”

Olisia Juzyc, United States

Eva - v2
"With every heart and brain cell, I can wholeheartedly recommend this 9-week program by Humanize. I don't think I have ever felt so transformed by a program as this one. And yes, this is a pretty big claim to make.

It's the simplicity and the magic of humans connecting as humans, that makes it so powerful. I even started to secretly dream of a world, where every human being can experience the power of it."

Eva-Maria Zoll, Germany

Esra - v2
"I wholeheartedly recommend the Humanize Dyad Foundation Program. It's impact on my life has been profound. It has open my heart to the power of compassion, deepened in my connections with others, and illuminated the transformative potential of being fully present. If you are seeking an authentic and meaningful learning experience, I encourage you to embark on this remarkable journey!"

Esra Sagol, Turkey

Laurie - v2
"Humanize has been an incredible and truly life changing program for me. It has brought into focus that difficulty and gratitude can exist together and what true compassionate listening can do for my life. There were several days in the program where I did not want to meet for a dyad due to difficulty I was having that day. Every time, I made myself participate in the dyad session anyway and every time the session would completely transform the difficultly into ease. Humanize has and is continuing to increase my ability to listen to others compassionately!"

Laurie Hallihan, United States
