The Night Before Planner

A quiet space to sort through tomorrow's worries tonight. Name what's ahead, sort your concerns, make a plan, and let go with guided sleep techniques.

The Night Before Planner helps you prepare for anxious tomorrows - tonight.

When you're lying awake worrying about tomorrow's meeting, appointment, or difficult conversation, this app gives you a calm, structured way to process those feelings and let them go before sleep.

HOW IT WORKS

The Evening Flow guides you through five gentle steps: • Name — Identify what's ahead and how you're feeling about it • Dump — Get every worry out of your head and onto the screen • Sort — Separate what you can control from what you can't • Plan — Turn controllable concerns into concrete action items for tomorrow • Release — Let go with a guided sleep technique

SLEEP TECHNIQUES

Choose from guided relaxation exercises designed to quiet your mind: • Box Breathing and 4-7-8 Breathing • Body Scan and Progressive Relaxation • Cognitive Shuffle • Watching the River (visualization) • Tomorrow's Moment (positive rehearsal)

Each technique includes ambient sounds and gentle haptic cues so you can close your eyes and follow along.

MORNING CHECK-IN

Wake up to your action items — just the practical steps, no anxiety content. Check them off as you go and build confidence for the day ahead.

REFLECTION & INSIGHTS

After your event, reflect on what actually happened vs. what you feared. Over time, the Insights dashboard reveals patterns: your anxiety accuracy, which techniques work best, and how your confidence grows.

GRATITUDE LOG

End your sessions with gratitude or log entries anytime. A simple practice that compounds over time.

DESIGNED FOR CALM

Every detail is intentional — dark mode by default, gentle animations that feel like a deep breath, rounded typography, and a color palette inspired by twilight. No bright screens. No jarring transitions. No guilt if you skip a step.

YOUR DATA IS YOURS

All data stays on your device. Optional iCloud backup puts you in control. No accounts, no analytics, no tracking.

NIGHT MODE (PREMIUM)

The free tier includes 1 session and 3 sleep techniques — enough to experience the full flow. Night Mode unlocks all 8 techniques, unlimited sessions, the insights dashboard, and data export.

The Night Before is designed for personal use in a safe, quiet environment. It is not a substitute for professional mental health care. If you are experiencing a crisis, please contact a mental health professional or call/text 988.
