The exercise library has three views and one search bar. Pick the one closest to what you're looking for.

If you know the exercise name

Exercise Library → All Exercises tab → search bar at the top. Type any part of the name. The match is fuzzy; partial words work.

Examples that match:

  • "thought record" → CBT Thought Record (all difficulty levels)
  • "5-4-3-2-1" → 5-4-3-2-1 grounding
  • "self compassion" → Self-Compassion Break + related exercises

If you know the modality

Exercise Library → Browse by Modality tab. Filter to one of:

  • CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) — thought records, behavioral activation, breathing, problem-solving, ABCDE, behavioral experiments
  • ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) — values clarification, defusion, present-moment, self-as-context, acceptance, committed action
  • DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) — mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, opposite action, PLEASE skills
  • Positive Psychology — gratitude, savoring, strengths, flow, resilience, self-compassion
  • Mindfulness — body scan, breath awareness, mindful walking, etc.

If you know the topic / goal

Exercise Library → Browse by Goal tab. Filter by what you're trying to address:

  • "I'm anxious right now" → grounding, breathing, defusion
  • "I'm stuck in rumination" → defusion, behavioral activation
  • "I want to clarify what matters to me" → values exercises
  • "I'm avoiding something" → behavioral experiments, exposure scaffolding
  • "I'm feeling flat / unmotivated" → behavioral activation, gratitude, savoring

If you're in a Pathway

The Pathway Home page shows the currently-scheduled exercise pinned at the top. Other exercises are still searchable below; the pinned one is just the day's anchor.

I still can't find it

Two possibilities:

  • The exercise might be tier-gated. Some exercises are only on Medium/Deep tiers. If you're on Light, switch to Medium in Profile → Settings to see the full catalog.
  • You might be remembering an exercise from another app. Our catalog has 800+ exercises but doesn't cover everything. Email [email protected] with the name and we'll let you know if it's coming.
