Calm in the body
A week that teaches the body to relax, for real, with practice. You measure where you stand, learn the basic method of progressive muscle relaxation (two sessions with a body scan in between: the repetition IS the method), build a calm place, link a cue word to the exhale, and measure again. By the end of the week you have four tools that grow stronger each time they are used.
How it works
One exercise, session or article per day for 7 days. You go at your own pace — the app remembers where you are, and you can pause and restart whenever you want.

Calmer days
Seven days with the most well-tested tools against worry and stress. You learn to wind the body down within minutes, ground yourself in the present when your thoughts race, examine catastrophic thoughts, give worry a bounded place, approach what you avoid in small steps, and read up on your stress response. On the last day you meet yourself with warmth. Not to never feel worry, but so that it steers you less.
7 days · Compassion
The meaning week
Seven days for the bigger questions, kept grounded. You clarify your values, put into words what gives your life direction, and turn it into concrete steps: meaning as action, not as rumination.
7 days · Rationality
Meet your thoughts
Seven days with the most well-tested tools from CBT and ACT, for those who get stuck in their heads. You learn to name feelings, catch thinking traps, step a little back from difficult thoughts, talk to yourself with some distance, give worry a bounded place, and calm the body. On the last day you meet the feeling under the thoughts with warmth. Not to think less, but so that thoughts steer you less.
