Regulate: Nervous System Reset

Meditation asks you to sit still. Your nervous system might need something else. Regulate gives you fast, body-first exercises matched to how you actually feel.

Meditation asks you to sit still, close your eyes, and breathe. If your heart is pounding, or you feel nothing at all, that can make things worse.

Regulate is not a meditation app. It's a nervous system app: short, active, body-first exercises matched to the state you're actually in. Pick how you feel, get the right tool, use it for 1 to 3 minutes, then rate how you feel. That's the whole loop.

Built from lived experience of PTSD recovery and four years of somatic work, for the people meditation apps didn't work for.

FOUR STATES. THE RIGHT TOOL FOR EACH.

ANXIOUS / PANIC

• Physiological Sigh: a double inhale and long exhale, one of the fastest known ways to help your body settle (studied in a 2023 Stanford randomized trial)
• Pattern Breaker: a cognitive interrupt for racing panic loops
• Geode Release: rapid tapping to burn through the surge
• Pressure Gauge: tap the needle to the redline, then let it fall with one long exhale

NUMB / FREEZE

• Pendulum: follow a slow swing left and right and tap each side at the peak, with a soft tone in each ear
• 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding: sensory anchoring to bring you back online
• Focus Follow: smooth-pursuit eye tracking

ANGRY / FRUSTRATED

• Chaos Release: a physical discharge shake game
• Tension Release: find and release the tension your body is holding

BALANCED / FLOW

• Regulate Breath: a 1:2 inhale-to-exhale ratio that slows your heart rate via the vagus nerve
• Daily maintenance exercises to keep your baseline steady

WHY BODY-FIRST WORKS

When your nervous system is stuck in fight, flight, or freeze, thinking your way out rarely works. Regulate's exercises are rooted in polyvagal theory, somatic psychology, and neuroscience: science-backed techniques that work through the body. Breath, movement, bilateral stimulation, and sensory grounding. Every exercise is interactive and animated, with haptic feedback that gives your hands something to do.

TRACK WHAT ACTUALLY HELPS

Rate how you feel after every exercise. Earn XP, build streaks, hit daily goals, and see which tools work best for your nervous system, not someone else's. A gentle daily nudge, at the time you choose, helps you come back to it.

Not meditation. Regulation.

Regulate is a self-care tool, not a medical device, and is not a substitute for professional care.
