Petit BamBou The European alternative to Headspace / Calm

Petit BamBou is a meditation app from FEELVERYBIEN SAS, based in Villeneuve-d'Ascq in northern France. The app offers guided meditations, breathing exercises, sophrology sessions, and sleep content. Programmes are sorted by theme, including stress, self-confidence, relationships, sleep, and content for children. A free starter version is available, and further programmes are offered through a subscription. The app supports several languages, including French, German, English, Spanish, and Italian.

FEELVERYBIEN SAS is a French Société par Actions Simplifiée headquartered in Villeneuve-d'Ascq, and falls under French and European data protection law. The legal notice lists French provider OVH, based in Lille, and Amazon Cloud (EC2) as hosting partners. The core domain therefore sits at least partly with a European host. With AWS, data localisation depends on the chosen region. The public documents do not provide a guarantee of pure EU hosting.

Petit BamBou contains over 700 guided sessions across several categories. These include mindfulness meditation, sophrology in the French tradition, and structured breathing exercises. Sleep programmes cover wind-down sessions, soundscapes, and longer sessions for night-time awakenings. A dedicated section addresses children and families with age-appropriate content. There is also a music library and themed programmes covering areas such as relationships, self-confidence, and focus.
