Sorted: Mental Health app
All RVC students have free access to the Sorted app, an evidence based, guided self-help audio programme. It is a mind body programme derived from sports psychology, that takes you through a set of 12 physical and mental exercises. This allows you to switch to a beneficial state of mind and let go of the negative emotional triggers, which underpin distress, whilst simultaneously increasing your concentration and focus.
The techniques build a resilient mind set, encapsulated by successful Olympic athletes who work on the foundation of positive motivations and memories to enable goal focused success.
Benefits:
- Immediately helps calm the body and mind
- Non-stigmatising sports background

- 12 years evidenced based development from within the NHS
