Takes ~2 minutes

Two minutes that actually change how your day goes

Daily Rise is a quick emotional check-in. You notice how you're feeling, try something small, and see if anything shifts. Free, private, no account needed.

How it works

  1. 1

    Check in

    Rate how you're actually feeling right now on a simple 1–10 scale. No judgment — just honesty.

  2. 2

    Try something

    A short guided exercise matched to where you are — breathing, grounding, or a new way to look at things.

  3. 3

    See the shift

    Check in again and see if anything moved. Even a small shift is a real one.

Most of the time, we just push through how we feel. But what if you stopped for two minutes and actually noticed? Not to fix it. Just to see it.

That's where things start to shift.

Companion to the book

Daily Rise is how readers practice The Participation Effect in real life

The book explains why stress narrows perception and how small emotional shifts change decisions. Daily Rise gives people a free two-minute way to apply that framework right now.

Best entry points

  • For recovery and emotional intensity: read Chapter One and use Daily Rise between hard moments.
  • For friends, clients, or family: the book gives language, the app gives practice.
