+ Six questions

Asked, answered.

Is this a meditation app?

Not exactly. It's a calm companion with a few evidence-aware tools — paced breathing, optional binaural sound, and the 20-20-60 focus loop. No library, no daily quotas, no streak pressure.

How does the 20-20-60 loop work?

The core loop is 20 minutes of focus, then a 60-second eye rest — look about 20 feet away with a guided breathing reset — before returning to the task. It arrives inside a session you already started, so you are not relying on willpower to take the break yourself.

Where can I run Sanctuary?

On the web — and you can install it like an app — in the Sanctuary Companion Chrome side panel, and on Windows with Sanctuary Desktop — tray-light while you work or play, full when you open it. One account keeps the practice continuous everywhere.

Can I change the voice or interval?

Yes. Settings hold the voice, the interval, and the soundscape. The default rhythm is 20 minutes of focus followed by eye rest and guided breathing.

Will there be more tools?

In time, yes — and anything new will live in the same room, never as a branch into a library. We'd rather do a few things well than pile up a shelf that doesn't.

What about data and privacy?

We keep it minimal: anonymous product analytics, session data tied to your account, and audio generated on your device. Sanctuary Desktop reports only the kind of activity — never window titles. An account is optional, nothing is sold or used for ads, account deletion is live in Settings, and JSON export is available on Elite.

+ One hold, then begin

Hold it for one second.

That's the whole start. Free, no card, nothing to set up.
