Culture
In a fast-moving world, it’s easy to feel unanchored - floating through screens, rushing through routines, detached from who we are and where we come from.
Tethered invites you to slow down and root yourself in something deeper: culture.
Through stories, history, folklore, and music, we don’t just help you feel calm - we help you feel connected. To a place. To a people. To something greater than yourself.
Experience mindfulness through the soul of Scotland.
Rooted in story. Grounded in place.
Connect more deeply
Many mindfulness apps focus on technique. Tethered adds meaning.
In the Tethered app, you’ll find:
Scottish history and folklore woven into meditations
Poetry, proverbs, and place-based storytelling
Cultural insights that awaken memory, identity, and belonging
An invitation to slow down and connect — not just to yourself, but to land and legacy
Scottish recipes from our Granny’s recipe book
Because true stillness isn’t just about silence. It’s about feeling at home - in your body, in your breath, and in the world around you.

What you’ll find inside
Where culture meets serenity
Tethered is the only mindfulness app that blends wellbeing with place-based storytelling. By tying meditation and mindfulness to the rich cultural fabric of Scotland, we help users feel not only more relaxed - but more tethered to where they are, and who they are.
Find belonging in every breath
Culture gives our mindfulness meaning. It grounds us, guides us, and connects us. Let Tethered walk you through the myths, music, memories, and magic of Scotland - and discover a new kind of calm.
