Practices, choose, do, log

A practice is the thing you actually do: meditate, move, breathe, journal. Logging your practice is the heart of Frequency, it is how showing up turns into progress.

Two ways to have a practice

• Your circle's practice. A circle host sets what the circle is practicing. Open your circle and you will see "This week's practice" with a button to log it.
• Your own practice. Not in a circle yet, or want something extra? Go to Practices, browse the library, and adopt one for yourself.

Log it

Each day you do your practice, hit Log practice. That:

• earns you Zaps (the in-person / real-world currency),
• keeps your streak alive, and
• counts you as active for the week.

You can log a practice once per day. Do it for a few days in a row and the streak starts to pull you back, which is exactly the point.

Want to actually do the practice right there, with a timer and guided breathing? Tap the little lotus to tune out with Mindless. Same log, same rewards, plus the sit itself.

Adopt or change anytime

Adopt as many practices as you like from the library, and remove any that no longer fit. If you host a circle, you can change the circle's practice whenever the focus shifts.

Make it your own

You can shape practices, not just pick them:

• Create one. On Practices, hit Create a practice, give it a name, and you will drop straight into the editor to add the details.
• Edit yours. Any practice you created shows an Edit button. Change its name, summary, full "how to" guide, cadence, Pillar, category, and icon.
• Customize one from the library. See a practice that is close but not quite yours? Hit Customize to make your own private copy and edit it freely. The original stays exactly as it was for everyone else.

(Editing covers the content and cadence; the weight a practice carries, and so the Zaps it rewards, is set by the team so the Quest stays fair.)

Claim a starter template

Many library practices are templates: a proven starting point you can claim and make your own. Open one and hit Claim & make it yours:

1. Tell Vera what you want from it and when you can realistically do it.
2. Vera shapes a personal version: a name, a cadence that fits your week, and concrete steps for you. (No Vera handy? Skip and tweak it yourself.)
3. Review, edit anything, and claim it. You get your own private copy, it is adopted onto your list, and you earn Zaps for claiming your first one.

From there it is yours: edit it anytime, log it daily, and, if you want, share it back to the community library for others to find. On your own practice you’ll see a Propose to Library button: tap it and your practice goes to the community leaders for a quick review. Once they approve it, it appears in the library for everyone (until then it shows as “In review”, and it stays private to you).

What each practice shows

Open any practice and you get its own page: a header image, the full "how to do it" write-up and steps, a short summary, its Pillar and sub-category, and a stats band: the reward per log, the cadence, how many people are practising it, and how many times it has been logged.

Each practice also has a category (movement, holistic health, spirituality, creative, human relating, business support) and a cadence hint (daily, weekly, as needed). The library is browsable by what you are drawn to.

If a practice is part of any Journeys or is being run by any circles, the page shows a "Used in" section linking to them, a quick way to find a Journey built around it or a circle already practising it together.

Find your way around the library

The library is organized so you can find practices that fit you, even as it grows to thousands:

• Search. Use the search box to find a practice by name or description.
• Pillars and sub-categories. Everything sits under one of the four Pillars (Mind, Body, Spirit, Expression), and within a Pillar you can narrow to a sub-category (for example Body → Cardio, Strength, Mobility).
• Tags. Practices carry tags like morning, quick, outdoor, or social so you can spot what suits the moment. When you create or edit your own practice, add your own tags to help others find it.
• Sort. Browse by Trending (what people are doing lately), All-time, or New. Trending is the default, so the practices the community is loving rise to the top.

Rewards vary by practice

Every practice has a weight: light (8 Zaps), standard (12), or heavy (15) per log. A cold plunge or a dawn surf asks more of you, so it gives back more. Each practice page shows its reward up front, so you know what logging it is worth before you commit.
