A map of your capacity

Living takes energy — working, sleeping, eating, being around people. That part is normal, and this tool does not ask about it. It asks about the extra energy: what you spend on top of normal life because something is not working well. A rested body takes almost no extra. A body that is tense, sore, or running on bad sleep takes a lot.

That extra energy goes to six places: your mind and nervous system, your body, the people and situation around you, your daily habits, things from your past, and your relationship with yourself. You answer a few short questions about each one. At the end you get a simple picture of where most of the extra is going, and one clear thing you can do about it.

There is no right order and no wrong answer. Go through the six areas in any order, answer what is true for you, and skip anything you would rather not look at today. It's not about today or even this week — look at the long term. There is no score and no test result. This only shows you what you told it.

6 areas, about 35 short questions

    Where do you want to look?

    Each area has a few short statements, then one question about how much extra it has cost you overall. You come back to this screen after each area. You can do them in any order, and you can stop at any point.

    Is this true of you?
    Thinking about this whole area — is it mostly recent, or has it been with you a long time?

    Optional. Choose what fits best, or leave it blank.
