How It Works
Dual-Axis State Mapping
The horizontal axis represents cognitive fatigue, from sluggish on the left to wired on the right. The vertical axis tracks nervous system arousal, from calm at the top to elevated at the bottom.
Tap or click anywhere on the canvas below to set your position. The matrix calculates a sequence suited to your selected coordinates.
Nervous System Arousal — Calm ↑ · Elevated ↓
Cognitive Fatigue — Sluggish ← · Wired →
Calibration
Honest Self-Assessment
There is no correct placement. Choose the point that feels closest to your present experience. The blueprint adjusts automatically based on quadrant logic.
Revisit the matrix at different times of day to observe how your preferred patterns shift over time.
After Mapping
Continue in the Sanctuary
Once you have your three-step blueprint, open the Practice Sanctuary to follow a visual pacing orb matched to your selected ratio pattern.

Common Ratio Patterns
Blueprints may include ratios such as 4 : 6, 4 : 7 : 8, or 5 : 5 depending on quadrant placement. Each ratio specifies inhale, optional hold, and exhale counts in seconds.
