Our Micro-Practices

Two minutes can change your day.

Short, guided practices designed to help you restore what your brain needs and build the skills to thrive in the modern world.

One Breath Before Opening

What to Do

Before opening email, social media, or messages, take one slow breath and ask yourself: Why am I opening this right now?

When to Do It

Before checking apps, email, or notifications.

Why it Works

Small moments of awareness help turn habits into choices and put you back in charge of your attention.

How It Works

Habitual behaviors (like checking your phone) run largely on autopilot. Inserting a brief pause before the action activates more deliberate processing and weakens the automatic loop. Research on habit change shows that a single moment of awareness is often enough to create a choice where there wasn't one before.

Why Clario Practices?

Modern life asks more of your brain than ever before. Some of our practices help restore the conditions your brain thrives in - like movement, natural light, focused attention, and recovery. Others help build the skills needed to navigate the modern world - like perspective shifting, attention directing, and setting intentions.
