Design practices with steps and timers. Breathing exercises, morning rituals, focus sessions, creative warmups, evening reviews. 66 ready-made practices included. Structure what matters to you, then let the app guide you through it.
PRACTICE, NOT HABIT
Habits run on autopilot. Practices require you to show up. A morning ritual, a breathing sequence, a journaling session, a pre-work focus block — these work because you're present for them, not because you've stopped thinking about them.
Guidance holds the structure so you can focus on being there.
DESIGN YOUR OWN
Build any practice from steps, timers, and repeats. Set the timing. Choose the order. Add instructions for your future self. The app doesn't tell you what to do — it holds what you've designed and walks you through it when you're ready.
LEARN FROM THE LIBRARY
66 practices from real practitioners and traditions. Breathing techniques, somatic exercises, journaling methods, focus protocols, evening wind-downs, relational exercises, and more. Add any to your collection, then customize it to fit your life.
HANDS-FREE PRACTICE
Audio Guidance reads your steps aloud. Control your session from AirPods or the lock screen — pause, skip, go back — without touching the phone. Timers keep running when your phone is locked or the app is in the background.
YOUR DATA, YOUR WAY
Every practice is a plain Markdown file in your iCloud. Open them in any text editor. Sync across devices. No account required. No lock-in. Your practices belong to you.
