Trust your instinct. There is no right answer here.

Milestone 1
Each feather carries the colour that showed up most across your emotional reflections.

Which emotion do you want to understand more deeply?

Over these emotional reflections, certain emotions kept returning. Now you get to choose one to work with intentionally.

The emotion you pick becomes your focus in My Shifts — where you can see exactly what triggered it, whether those triggers nourished you or drained you, and how to respond with more intention next time.

There is no wrong answer. Choose the one that feels most alive, most unresolved, or most worth understanding.

Your triggers and patterns are in My Shifts.

Why it works

When you're stuck in a feeling — anger, love, anxiety, grief — your mind keeps returning to it. Every thought leads back to the same place. That's the loop.

My Fyrst doesn't try to fix it.

Instead, it gives you random simple daily activities to do that have nothing to do with what you're feeling. Not because those things are the answer. But to give you an opportunity to get a break from the brain loop. It is training the brain's fundamental emotional regulation muscles before those muscles are tested in life situations.

Think of it like physical therapy: you do generalised core strengthening exercises so that your body can handle specific, heavy lifting later.

My Fyrst doesn't tell you what you feel. It makes enough space for you to find out.

How it works — a 3 step practice

My Fyrst blends simple daily activities with the depth of journaling — a proprietary process designed to cultivate emotional self-awareness, mindfulness, and personal growth over time.

The full arc — what you are building

My Fyrst is a lifelong daily practice. Each session is small, but over time the pieces connect into something much larger. Here is the full picture.

1
Each sitting
A session — 3 activities
Three short prompts. After each one, choose a colour that feels closest to what you emotionally noticed.
2
After 4 sessions
A flower blooms
Your four sessions become one reflection flower — 12 petals, each one an emotion you noticed. Your first glimpse of an emotional pattern.
3
After 6 reflections
Your milestone
Six flowers become one milestone. Here you see which emotions kept returning, choose one to work with intentionally, and measure how your emotional self-awareness has shifted from where you started.

My Shifts
What nourishes you. What drains you. How your emotional self-awareness has changed. A living record that grows with every session you complete.
How to do the activities

Each session has three activities. Read the activity details, take your time with it. Once you've completed the activity, you'll be guided to journal — choose the colour that feels closest to the emotion you experienced while doing the activity, and note the trigger or reason behind it.

Some activities require less time than others. You can close the app mid-session and return — your progress is saved after each activity.

The colour you pick is not a diagnosis. It is an emotional record.

Time and pace

A single session takes between 5 and 10 minutes depending on the activities. There is no timer and no deadline.

There are four sessions in a reflection. Do them whenever you are ready — a day apart, it does not matter. Take it at your own pace.

Our recommendation

For the best effect, we recommend doing a maximum of one session per day. Spacing out your sessions over the time gives an opportunity to build self awareness habit and a genuine understanding of your emotions — rather than rushing through.

The practice works best slowly. One activity at a time, one session at a time.

Using colours as language of emotions
The nine colours — Navarasa

My Fyrst uses colour as the language of emotion. Naming a feeling precisely in the moment is hard — choosing a colour is easier. It bypasses the thinking mind and gets closer to what you actually feel.

The nine colours come from the Navarasa — an ancient Indian framework of nine fundamental human emotions used in classical art, music, and theatre for over two thousand years.

Śṛṅgāra
Love & Connection — warmth, affection, closeness
Hāsya
Joy & Lightness — amusement, happiness, relief
Karuṇā
Compassion & Sorrow — sadness, empathy, heaviness
Raudra
Anger & Intensity — frustration, tension, resentment
Vīra
Courage & Confidence — motivation, strength, drive
Bhayanaka
Fear & Anxiety — worry, overwhelm, insecurity
Bībhatsa
Disgust & Aversion — discomfort, withdrawal, unease
Adbhuta
Wonder & Curiosity — fascination, surprise, openness
Śānta
Peace & Tranquility — calm, stillness, contentment
Your three flower types

My Fyrst uses three types of flowers — each tells a different part of your emotional story.

Session flower — 3 petals
One petal per activity. Completed after each session. Shows the three emotions you noticed during that sitting.
Reflection flower — 12 petals
All four sessions combined. 12 petals showing everything you noticed across the full 12 activities.
Milestone feathers — 6 feathers
One feather per reflection flower, coloured with the dominant emotion from each reflection. Six reflections complete one milestone.
Understanding your petals

Your flower is made of petals — one for each activity across four sessions. Each petal tells a story about that moment.

Coloured petal
Activity completed — you chose a colour. Tap to see your note. Cannot be changed once the reflection flower is closed.
Dotted petal — Come back to this later
An activity you need to come back to. Tap the petal to colour it before the reflection flower closes.
Your toolbar

The toolbar at the bottom gives you access to five areas of your practice.

My Guide
You are here. Everything you need to understand the practice, the petals, and the flow.
The self-awareness questions

At the start of your practice, you answered three questions about your emotional self-awareness. These are your baseline — a snapshot of where you were before you began.

At each milestone, you will answer them again. Over time, your answers appear side by side in My Shifts — so you can see not just what you felt, but how your capacity to understand yourself has genuinely changed.

The three questions are:

Do you know how emotionally strong you are?
Do you know what helps you move away when overwhelmed by an emotion?
Is it easy for you to keep track of your emotions?

Using colours to represent emotions
My Fyrst uses colour as the language of emotion. Naming a feeling precisely in the moment is hard — choosing a colour is easier. It bypasses the thinking mind and gets closer to what you actually feel.

The nine colours come from the Navarasa — an ancient Indian framework of nine fundamental human emotions used in classical art, music, and theatre.

You can revisit all of this any time in the My Guide tab.

These measure your emotional self-awareness right now — before the practice begins.

At each milestone, you will answer them again. Over time, you will see in My Shifts exactly how your self-awareness has shifted — compared to this very moment.

Your activity

Why this matters

Take your time. The app will be here when you're ready to record.

My Fyrst is a personal practice, not therapy or clinical support. If you are going through a difficult time, please speak with a qualified mental health professional.

Choose the colour that feels closest

Describe the reason of the trigger.

Why do you think you felt it? What was happening? Who or what was involved?

The situation or reason behind what you felt — does it leave you feeling nourished or drained?

You can complete this from your session summary. Once the emotional reflection closes, this petal can no longer be coloured.
