Basis was created by humans, for humans. Every exercise, the design and layout of the app, even the transitions between pages, were intentionally crafted to be pleasant, real, and helpful for the user. Nothing flashy, nothing overwhelming. All helpful. The main function of basis is the exercises that are found on the main page. Each exercise has been crafted to bring a sense of peace, regulation, and safety to the participant by inviting them to slow down and come into the here-and-now. This is done by joining the natural neurological signals that are constantly happening in the body and mind. These exercises, once reserved for those that could pay the excessive costs, are now available without limit for less than 1% of the original cost. Because everyone deserves to experience regulation. As an added feature, lockdowns are a powerful tool that can be used for both individual and collective phone lockdowns. After voluntarily and individually selecting the apps and websites to block, a lobby is created that can be joined by friends or family members to lockdown together. Solo lockdowns are also an option to keep yourself dialed in and focused. The original intent was to offer resources to groups of people wanting to lockdown while out for dinner or studying, but the applications are endless. You don’t have to face the stress of life alone.

Regulate: Nervous System is a trauma-informed audio wellness app designed to help you understand, soothe, and build resilience in your autonomic nervous system. Whether you're managing anxiety, recovering from trauma, navigating burnout, or simply trying to feel more grounded in daily life — Regulate meets you where you are, gently and without judgment. WHAT'S INSIDE • Guided breathwork sessions grounded in polyvagal theory • Somatic awareness practices to release stored tension in the body • Nervous system education to help you recognise your own patterns • Calming audio sessions for moments of overwhelm, freeze, or shutdown • Daily regulation practices to build a steadier baseline over time HOW IT WORKS Regulate uses pre-generated audio sessions crafted with trauma sensitivity at their core. Sessions are short, accessible, and designed to be used whenever you need them — in the morning, during a stressful moment, or before sleep. No login. No subscription required. No data collected. Everything stays on your device. PRIVACY FIRST Regulate does not collect, store, or share any personal information. No account is required. Your microphone is never used to capture audio. FOR WHOM Designed for adults (12+) who want to explore nervous system regulation as part of their wellbeing toolkit. This app is a self-guided wellness resource and is not a substitute for professional mental health care. Built with care, compassion, and a deep respect for the complexity of healing.
