A calm, step-by-step program for rebuilding closeness at your own pace — on your own or with a partner. Built on Sensate Focus, used by licensed therapists for decades. Slow Burn is a guided closeness program — a calm, structured way to rebuild connection at your own pace, on your own or with a partner. It's built on Sensate Focus, a structured, step-by-step method developed by clinical researchers in the 1970s and used by licensed therapists ever since. Instead of a single session, Slow Burn turns the protocol into a six-stage program you move through one unhurried step at a time. HOW IT WORKS • A staged program — from simple, pressure-free connection through to full integration — with clear, clinical guidance for each session. Every stage has a solo form as well as a partnered one. • A readiness gate that removes the awkward part. With a partner, the next stage opens only when you have BOTH privately tapped "I feel ready." No negotiating, no pressure. • Private reflections after each session. You each answer a few questions on your own — and Slow Burn only ever surfaces what you BOTH named. Never the rest. • Gentle, never-nagging reminders to keep the practice going. FOR EVERY KIND OF PERSON Slow Burn adapts its language to you — your pronouns, your words for your partner, your relationship structure. It assumes no gender, no orientation, and no particular shape of relationship. WHO IT'S FOR Anyone reconnecting after a long stretch of drift — a new baby, a health change, a recovery, a stressful season, or simply years of two people moving at different speeds. It's for feeling close again, calmly and privately. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No analytics. Nothing is collected about you. Your identity settings and your written notes never leave your device. If you pair two phones, they agree on a key only they hold and everything between them is end-to-end encrypted — the relay in the middle carries scrambled bytes it cannot read, and keeps none of them. A NOTE FROM US Slow Burn is a wellness and education program. It is not medical advice, and it is not a substitute for care from a qualified clinician. If you are managing pain, a medical condition, recovery, or a history of trauma, please work with a licensed therapist or a pelvic-floor physical therapist. The app links you to trusted professional directories to find one.
