Mind Anchor

A quiet mental task for meetings, stores, and other places you cannot move much.

3 min · Grounding · Guided in the CalmShield app

What it walks you through

  1. Pick an anchor you can do quietly.

  2. Go one item at a time.

  3. If you lose the thread, begin again from the last one you remember.

  4. When you stop, notice one thing in the room.

In the app

Each step has what it needs: a timer, a tap counter or a breath pacer. Listen mode reads the steps aloud. At the end you can mark whether it helped, and the app suggests what to try next.

About Mind Anchor

How long does Mind Anchor take?

About 3 minutes, in 4 steps. You can stop after any step.

Can I do Mind Anchor without the app?

Yes. The steps on this page work on their own. The app adds a timer, counter or breath pacer to each step, can read the steps aloud, and remembers whether it helped so it can suggest what to try next.
