What's inside

From reading to practice

Today's Meditation

A daily passage rotated from the classical canon. Guided 5-minute reflection. A journal prompt to carry the idea forward.

Counsel

Describe what burdens you. The app retrieves matching passages and generates a reflection grounded in the original texts. No invention, no therapy speak.

Evening Review

Seneca's nightly practice. Three questions: what did I resist, where did I fail, what can I improve. Close the day cleanly.

Journal

Every counsel, evening review, and freeform entry in one place. A growing ledger of applied philosophy, written in your own words.

Library

400+ passages from Meditations, Letters from a Stoic, Discourses, and the Enchiridion. Browse by theme, author, or work. Bookmark what resonates.

Insights

See your discipline take shape — proof that the practice is sticking. Streaks, weekly cadence, and the themes you keep returning to.

Reminders that fit your day

Set the times you actually pause — morning meditation, evening review, journal prompt — and let the app meet you there.

Breath that paces you

A simple breathing circle paces every reflection so you arrive present, not rushed.

Private by design

Counsel runs on Apple Intelligence on your device. Your reflections never leave your iPhone.

Share what resonates

Turn any passage into a beautiful image card to send a friend or post — credited, no app needed to read it.

“We should every night call ourselves to an account: What infirmity have I mastered today? What passions opposed? What temptation resisted?”
Seneca · On Anger, III.36
