The hold loop
A short pause between impulse and action — name the urge, ride a ritual, mark what happened.
-
Name the urge
Label snack reach, endless scroll, impulse buy, or your own type, then set intensity before the timer starts.
-
Ride a short ritual
Breath count, steady gaze, reverse alphabet, body scan, and custom rituals keep you present for two to five minutes.
-
Mark held or slipped
Close each wave with an honest outcome and an optional note so the next hold starts from real memory.
-
See calm patterns
Streaks, hold rate, peak hours, and top urges surface quietly in Insights so you can pause before the next wave.
During the hold · after the wave
Left: the timer when an urge hits. Right: Pulse after you return to the ledger.
