Why no AI?
A choice informed by building with it.
I use AI to help build things. I also want a place where I can notice what has my attention and choose a direction without asking a model for the next step. That is why I left AI out of this app.
The wider Return Authorship project is about AI and human collaboration. This app is one result of that work.

Where is attention going?
Return Authorship starts with a pause: notice what has your attention, choose a direction, and find one action to take.
The work
Two ways into the same idea.
The app has 39 short practices in seven groups. This site previews fourteen of them. The app guides a reset through grounding, attention, direction, and an action.
The practice preview can be read without an account. The app has its own terms and a separate place to begin.
The app
The practices lead to the app.
The practice page on this site is a preview. The app has its own place to begin.
