What do you need right now?

Pick the one that fits today. You can always come back for a different one tomorrow.

01

I need to work with my state.

Stress is high, energy is low, or you’re unsure what would help you meet the moment.

02

I need to understand what's happening.

Step back and look more clearly at the thoughts, patterns, and habits shaping how you're responding.

03

I want to build a practice.

Build skills you can return to before, during, and after difficult moments.

04

I want to make a change.

Turn what you're noticing into choices, habits, and actions that better reflect how you want to live.

The Cognitive Fitness Pathway

Different starting points. Same underlying work.

Ten foundational practices across three stages. This is a pathway, not a prescription: begin where a practice fits what you need today, and move in any direction from there.

Calm Body

Regulation · 01–04

Recognize your state and develop ways to regulate and recover.

  1. 01NoticeRecognize what your body is doing before automatically reacting.
  2. 02EvaluateConsider whether your current state fits what the moment needs.
  3. 03RegulateChoose a suitable way to influence your state when needed.
  4. 04MaintainKeep useful practices available in everyday life.

Clear Mind

Awareness & Choice · 05–07

Notice thoughts and patterns with greater perspective and create more room to choose your response.

  1. 05QuestionSeparate what you know from what you are adding before building a new interpretation.
  2. 06ReframeBuild a fuller, more accurate and believable way to describe the situation.
  3. 07ChooseTurn a fuller perspective into one deliberate response.

Strong Life

Intentional Action · 08–10

Turn awareness into decisions, habits, boundaries, and actions that reflect what matters.

  1. 08ActTurn a meaningful choice into one achievable action.
  2. 09BuildDesign supportive conditions that make meaningful behavior easier to repeat.
  3. 10AdaptReview what happened and adjust as your circumstances change.

Life doesn't move through three neat stages. We move between body, mind, and life depending on what needs attention.
