In development
Something to do with the stretch after a meal.
For the stretch right after a meal, when there's nowhere to put the feeling. Breathing, drawing, drifting and cards, with no right way to use any of it and nobody watching. Built for treatment settings, and not treatment itself.
Built with professionals · a support tool, never a replacement for care
What it does
BreatheA circle that grows and shrinks. You follow it, longer out than in, at six slow breaths a minute.
DrawA blank space, or a faint pattern to fill in with your finger. No skill needed.
DriftSlow moving water and light. Nothing to do.
CardsOne sentence at a time. Two decks, so you can pick whichever you can stand today.
No numbers, no streaksNothing to count, nothing to score and nothing to keep up with. You can leave any of it whenever you want.
The reasons, publishedEvery choice in it comes from a study, including the choices to leave things out, with the sources linked.
Where it stands
In development. We're building it with professionals, we've reached out to inpatient treatment centers, and we'd like clinicians helping shape it. If that's you, write to us.
