In-the-Moment Stress Tool

A brief, portable tool for stressful moments: a short breathing reset followed by one quick reframe. For everyday stress management, not for crisis or clinical care; if you're in crisis, contact local emergency or crisis support.

Grade inherited from the evidence blocks this routine implements. Duration is a starting point (do more or less); the app just tells you where you land against the evidence-based dose.
