The Soma Protocol

A blueprint for high-performance living. Optimize your biology, automate your decisions, and engineer your perfect day.

Begin Protocol
Phase 0

The Environment

You don't rise to the level of your goals — you fall to the level of your systems. Soma removes friction so your habits execute automatically.

1. Install as a PWA

Remove the browser UI. Add Soma to your Home Screen to create a dedicated psychological trigger for logging.

2. Zero-Click Mindset

We designed the Dashboard for speed. Treat it as your command center. Bypass menus, just log.

Phase 1

The Architecture of Tomorrow

Decision fatigue is the enemy. By planning the night before, you wake up with a pre-loaded brain, ready to execute without hesitation.

  • Anchor Biology: Schedule Sleep, Gym, and Meals as 'Habits' first.
  • Deep Work Containers: Drag a 90-minute HIGH priority block to your peak energy time (9 AM).
  • Shallow Buffer: Batch emails and chores into low-energy windows (4 PM).
Phase 2

The Morning Launchpad

How you start the first 30 minutes determines your dopamine trajectory. Prime your mind, hydrate your system, and fuel with intention.

  • Mindset Primer: Read the Daily Quote to trigger your Reticular Activating System.
  • Hydration Kickstart: Tap 'Add 250ml' before coffee to fix overnight dehydration.
  • Glucose Baseline: Log a savory, high-protein breakfast to prevent an 11 AM crash.
Phase 3

The Execution Window

Time, energy, and biology converge. Soma acts as your visual accountability partner, keeping you in flow and properly fueled.

  • Visual Forcing Function: The Timeline View creates urgency (Parkinson's Law).
  • Adaptive Fueling: Check Dashboard Stats before lunch. Low burn? Eat light. High burn? Refuel.
  • NEAT Optimization: Log small walks to validate your non-exercise activity.
Phase 4

The Evening Audit

Close open loops to sleep better. Reviewing your data turns experience into strategy for tomorrow.

  • Zeigarnik Effect: Check off remaining tasks to release mental tension.
  • History Review: Compare your 'Planned' timeline vs 'Actual' reality.
  • AI Coach: Read the diet feedback. High sodium today? Adjust tomorrow.
