在这里，
找到你的平静。 You can
slow down here.

在创造 Lume 之前，我曾经在一家很大的公司工作。 Before creating Lume, I worked at a very large company.

那是一段让我成长很快的经历。我做过复杂的系统，处理过高并发的数据，参与过大型平台的工程建设，也曾经负责一个小团队。外界看起来，我好像一直在往前走：绩效不错，能力被认可，履历也变得更好看。 It was a period of my life where I grew very quickly. I worked on complex systems, handled large-scale data, contributed to major platform projects, and at one point, led a small team. From the outside, it probably looked like everything was moving in the right direction: good performance, growing responsibilities, stronger skills, a better-looking résumé.

但只有我自己知道，那几年，我越来越不像自己。 But deep down, I knew I was slowly becoming someone I no longer recognized.

我每天都在解决问题。项目的问题，协作的问题，性能的问题，进度的问题，线上问题。我变得越来越熟练，越来越可靠，也越来越麻木。 Every day, I was solving problems. Project problems. Collaboration problems. Performance problems. Timeline problems. Production problems. I became more capable, more reliable, and, without realizing it, more numb.

在一个巨大的系统里，人很容易被贴上各种标签：绩效、职级、角色、能力模型、负责人、交付结果。你需要稳定，需要专业，需要能扛事，需要快速响应。慢慢地，我好像也习惯了用这些标准来衡量自己。 Inside a large system, it is easy to become defined by labels: performance ratings, roles, levels, capability models, ownership, delivery outcomes. You are expected to be stable, professional, resilient, responsive, and always ready to carry more.

可很少有人问你：你今天真的还好吗？ But very rarely does anyone ask: How are you, really?

有一段时间，我甚至分不清自己到底是累，还是焦虑，还是已经不快乐很久了。我只是知道，自己的内心变得越来越空，很多真正重要的东西，好像正在一点点离我远去。 There was a time when I could no longer tell whether I was tired, anxious, or simply unhappy for a very long time. I only knew that something inside me was becoming emptier, and that many things that once felt important were slowly drifting away from me.

2024 年底，我决定离开那里。 At the end of 2024, I decided to leave.

那不是一个轻松的决定。离开之后，我也并没有立刻变好。我花了很长一段时间，重新理解自己的情绪，重新学习如何和焦虑相处，也重新寻找内心的秩序。 It was not an easy decision. And leaving did not magically make everything better. I spent a long time learning how to understand my emotions again, how to live with anxiety, and how to rebuild a sense of inner order.

我开始系统学习心理学、正念练习，以及那些关于自我、执念、平静与生命节奏的思想。我也慢慢接触王阳明的心学，以及佛学、道家思想里关于“向内看”的部分 I began studying psychology, mindfulness, and different ways of understanding the self. I also found myself drawn to Wang Yangming’s philosophy of the mind, as well as ideas from Buddhism and Taoism about attachment, stillness, and the rhythm of life.

这些学习没有让我突然变成一个"更强大的人"。但它们一点点把我带回自己身边。 None of this suddenly made me a stronger person. But little by little, it brought me back to myself.

我慢慢意识到，我想做的不是另一个让人变得更高效的工具。 I slowly realized that I did not want to build another tool that simply made people more productive.

这个世界已经有太多工具在催促我们变快、变强、变得更优秀。可很多时候，人不是需要被继续推着往前走，而是需要先停下来，喘一口气，确认自己还在。 The world already has too many products asking us to move faster, become stronger, and optimize ourselves endlessly. But sometimes, what we need is not another push forward. Sometimes, we need to pause. To breathe. To remember that we are still here.

Lume 就是在这样的时刻出现的。 That was the moment Lume began to take shape.

它不是一开始就被设计成一个商业产品。它更像是一盏很小的灯，是我想送给过去那个疲惫、紧绷、总是在硬撑的自己的东西。 Lume was not born as a business plan. It felt more like a tiny light I wanted to give to the version of myself who had been tired, tense, and quietly holding everything together for too long.

我希望它温柔一点。不要催促用户马上变好。不要要求用户立刻积极。不要把情绪变成一串冰冷的数据。也不要用打卡、勋章和排名，继续制造另一种压力。 I wanted it to be gentle. Not a place that rushes you to get better. Not a place that demands instant positivity. Not a place that turns your emotions into cold data. And not another system of streaks, badges, and rankings that quietly creates more pressure.

市面上有很多心理类 App，它们很擅长记录、训练、提醒和激励。但我常常觉得，很多人在真正不安的时候，要的并不是一个勋章，也不是一句"你要加油"。 There are many mental wellness apps that are good at tracking, training, reminding, and motivating. But I often feel that when people are truly anxious or overwhelmed, what they need is not a badge. It is not another voice telling them to "stay positive."

我们要的，可能只是一个不会评判的声音。一个可以暂时放下防备的地方。一个允许自己不那么好的空间。 What we need may simply be a voice that does not judge. A place where we can lower our guard for a while. A space where we are allowed to not be okay.

所以我希望 Lume 像一片安静的森林。 That is why I imagine Lume as a quiet forest.

你可以走进去，坐一会儿。你不需要解释自己为什么难过。也不需要马上整理好情绪。你只需要慢慢把那些说不清的感受放下来。 You can walk in and sit for a while. You do not need to explain why you feel sad. You do not need to fix yourself immediately. You only need to slowly put down the feelings you cannot yet name.

因为我知道，很多时候，人不是需要被教育，也不是需要被激励。人只是需要先被接住。 Because I believe that, many times, people do not need to be taught. They do not need to be pushed. They need to be held first.

这就是 Lume 的开始。 This is where Lume began.

它诞生于我自己的低谷，也承载着我后来一点点恢复的过程。我希望它能陪伴更多人，在疲惫、焦虑、迷茫的时候，重新回到自己身边。 It was born from my own low point, and from the slow process of finding my way back. I hope it can accompany others through moments of exhaustion, anxiety, and uncertainty, and help them gently return to themselves.

在你最不安的时候，希望 Lume 能陪你慢慢回到平静。 When you feel most unsettled, I hope Lume can gently help you return to a sense of calm.
