Guides for bringing records in, reading a lab panel marker by marker, following a wearable trend, working with Ojava Coach, exporting everything again, and knowing exactly where the wellness boundary sits.

35 guides, kept in step with what the product actually does.

Mindfulness

Keep guided wellness tools, meditation, yoga, breathwork, mood, journaling, and wellness routines in the same private record as the rest of your health.

Where to find it

Mindfulness is reachable from the Longevity tab’s Insights view, under Mind & mood tools. From there you can open breathing, grounding, thought reframing, journal prompts, sleep wind-downs, support planning, mood and stress, and the full Mental wellness Coach mode without digging through chat buttons.

Guided wellness tools

The Tools tab gives you short structured exercises for everyday regulation and reflection: paced breathing, five senses grounding, thought reframing, gratitude journaling, sleep wind-down, and a non-crisis support plan. Each card shows the time estimate, steps, and the boundary for that tool.

Use Open in Coach when you want Ojava Coach to guide the same tool in conversation. The handoff stays in Mental wellness mode and keeps the wellness boundary: coaching only, not therapy, diagnosis, crisis assessment, or psychiatric-medication advice.

Sleep wind-downs can also become ready context for Coach when three lanes are present: mood or stress check-ins, recent sleep rows, and mindfulness or holistic practice rows. Ojava passes Coach a deterministic readiness packet with the suggested tool, the context it found, and the missing inputs if the packet is still thin. It stays an evening routine discussion, not a sleep-condition screen or licensed-care path.

Coach also receives a mental companion readiness packet when it has enough mood, stress, practice, or sleep context. That packet lets Coach name the supportive reflection and tool handoff it can offer, while keeping voice companion entry, therapy routing, diagnosis, risk scoring, crisis counseling, and psychiatric-medication advice outside Ojava.

Meditation, yoga & practice sessions

The practice log stores the mind-body sessions you choose to track: meditation, breathwork, yoga, tai chi, qigong, sauna, cold plunge, massage, sound bath, and more. Each entry can keep the date, practice type, duration, practitioner or studio, and notes about how it felt.

Ojava summarizes your logged rhythm: recent sessions, days covered, total minutes, average minutes, streaks, and your most common practice. These are plain diary patterns from your own entries, not claims about treatment or medical benefit.

Coach also receives a smaller meditation-practice streak packet when there is enough context. It can include your current practice streak, recent practice days, the gap since your last session, a consistency cue, and what is missing, with mood, stress, and neutral journal context counted only when those rows are present.

Ojava also has licensed content scaffolds for future guided workout, meditation, and mind-body libraries. They prepare content-provider contract placeholders, rights review, media and program mappings, review queues, activation flags, and audit fields, but they do not host copied third-party media or expose a guided catalog before the licensed content track is active. These are media-licensing rails, never a route to clinical care. When you ask Coach about those future libraries, it can explain the activation rails and current live substitutes: your own practice log, Ojava guided wellness tools, Mental wellness mode, self-authored goals, and logged workout or holistic sessions. It still cannot claim licensed content access, streamed classes, provider-created programs, workout prescription, meditation therapy, or clinician response.

Mood & stress

Mood check-ins capture how you feel, your energy, your stress, and an optional note about what helped. The summary shows recent check-ins, average energy, average stress, most logged mood, and streaks, so you can see your own patterns over time.

When there is enough mood and wearable history, Ojava can also compare high-stress or low-energy check-in days with sleep, HRV, and resting heart rate. Those patterns are association-only wellness context from your own data. They are not therapy, diagnosis, crisis assessment, or medical advice.

Coach can also receive a seven-day stress and energy status packet that combines recent mood check-ins with sleep, HRV, resting heart rate, and source-provided stress or energy rows when they exist. It names missing inputs instead of guessing and stays in general wellness context.

A weekly mental-wellness recap can combine the last seven days of mood or stress check-ins, sleep nights, mindfulness-style sessions, and recovery metric days into one Coach-visible review line. It highlights coverage, missing inputs, and a focus such as high-stress days, low-energy days, shorter sleep nights, or practice context, but it does not diagnose, score mental-health risk, provide therapy, or claim that one habit caused another signal.

For brain fog, focus, memory, attention, or mental-clarity questions, Ojava Coach can also receive a cognitive check-in readiness packet. It organizes recent self-tracked cognitive notes beside sleep, stress or energy, mindfulness practice, and recovery rows, then turns the pattern into visit-prep questions. It is not a cognitive test, dementia or ADHD screening, normative benchmark, diagnosis, risk score, or clinical monitoring.

Mindfulness and breathwork sessions can join that same pattern review when you have enough session days and enough recovery data. Ojava looks for whether those practice days line up with sleep, HRV, or resting heart rate in your own record, and it stays in association-only language.

Ojava Coach can also receive a deterministic tool-readiness summary from your mood and practice history. That lets it pick from Ojava’s own breathing, grounding, journaling, sleep, and support-plan tools with the missing context stated clearly, instead of inventing a mental-health plan.

Journal notes & memories

Journal notes are things you want Ojava to remember about your routine, priorities, history, preferences, or current thinking. They make Ojava Coach feel less generic because your context travels across conversations.

Notes that read as sensitive, such as mental health, reproductive health, substance use, genetic, or HIV-related context, are kept private from the assistant by default. See Memories and Privacy for the details.

Mind goals

Goals are self-authored. You can track meditation streaks, bedtime routines, stress-recovery habits, journaling consistency, or any other mind-body practice you care about. Ojava keeps those goals organized with your fitness, sleep, recovery, and body goals.

How Ojava Coach uses it

When the data is allowed into context, Ojava Coach can use your mindfulness logs to answer with more personal routine and recovery coaching. It can notice that you logged breathwork on high-stress days, or that meditation and sleep routines are part of the same week, but it should say what is missing instead of guessing. Coach can also receive deterministic meditation-practice streak context, including recent practice days, current streak, last-practice gap, and missing inputs, without quoting journal text. It can also receive deterministic mental-recovery associations, such as whether high-stress check-ins tend to line up with less sleep or lower HRV, or whether mindfulness and breathwork sessions line up with recovery signals, when both sides have enough observed days. When mood and practice context is useful for a structured exercise, Coach receives the matching Ojava tool names as wellness support only. When mood, sleep, and practice rows are all present, the sleep wind-down packet tells Coach that the sleep tool is ready to discuss and names the evidence rather than guessing. The mental companion readiness packet wraps those same signals into a status line, so Coach can be clear about what reflective support is live and what still belongs to licensed or emergency care.

Important

Mindfulness in Ojava is general wellness support. It is not therapy, crisis care, diagnosis, or a mental-health risk assessment. If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 in the US, or call emergency services.

Read the guide,then bring your own record

Every page here describes something you can do with data you already have: a lab PDF sitting in an email, an export from a watch, a photograph of dinner. Nothing joins your record until you have seen it and accepted it.

  • Plain language first

    A guide says what a marker or a trend generally means in the words a person actually uses, before it suggests anything at all.

  • The boundary is written down

    Ojava organizes, explains, trends, and prepares you for a visit. It never diagnoses, prescribes, doses, orders labs, or supplies a clinician.

  • Every way in has a way out

    Wherever a guide describes bringing data in, it also describes taking it back out: export, share with someone you choose, or delete.

Ojava is a General Wellness product. It is not a medical device, it does not give medical advice, and it does not replace care from your own clinician. If something feels urgent, contact a clinician or your local emergency number.
