Participant's Guide NIHILO
How to reflect
Every day - two short entries: in the morning you set an intention, in the evening you check.
Between them, AI looks at your brain, heart and body data and calculates where the idea coincides
with reality, and where the rhythm has gone astray. This turns the diary into an accurate predictive model of your condition.
═══ 01 · LOOP ═══
01 Concept
Daily loop “Design → Reality”
Most people live in reaction mode - the day takes you wherever it takes you, in the evening it’s unclear
what happened and why. Reflection in NIHILO breaks this regime due toclosed loop:
🌅 Morning
Concept + setting
What I want to do. What a mood. Like a body.
⇨
🌙 Evening
Fact + reconciliation
What happened. Did he maintain his condition? Price.
Between morning and evening - data from devices: EEG, HRV, sleep, fitness tracker.
This structure is not a “beauty diary.” This is a tool for three things at once:notice patterns, train awarenessAndgive AI datato build your personal model.
═══ 02 · MORNING BLOCK ═══
02 · Morning block · 1–2 minutes
What to say in the morning
🌅Record by voice or text:
-
What are you going to do today?
Key tasks or goals - 1-3 points specifically. Not “work”, but “hand in the layout, hold 2 calls, write a draft article.”
-
What is your inner mood now?
Peace · vanity · excitement · support · deficit. Name the state from which you are now entering the day.
-
How does the body feel?
Energy · breathing · clamps. Where is the tension, where is the lightness, what the body wants (or doesn’t want).
What does it give:fix the vector of the day and the reference point according to the state.
Without this, there is nothing to check against in the evening.
═══ 03 · EVENING BLOCK ═══
03 · Evening block · 1–2 minutes
What to say in the evening
🌙Record by voice or text:
-
What actually happened?
Solid results, events of the day. Not grades (“standard day”), but facts (“passed the layout, completed 1 of 2 calls, did not start the article”).
-
Checking with the morning.
Did you manage to maintain the fortune you planned? At what point and why did the rhythm go wrong? A specific event - a call, conversation, news, thought.
-
The price of the result.
What I came up with: fatigue · flow · exhaustion · surplus. This is the currency of the day - how much your energy was worth.
What does it give:close the loop. AI gets the difference between design and reality -Delta, the main metric of the day.
═══ 04 · DISPLAY ═══
04 · Where you can see it
How are your reflections displayed?
Each entry goes into your personal profile on the site. Only you have access
and from the research team (under NDA).
In your profile
- Chronology— all entries by date, morning/evening/stream are marked with icons.
- Full textvoice recordings - Whisper transcribes them every night, you get the exact text of what you said.
- AI parsing— every night Sonnet takes your notes for the day and writes a short observation: what you noticed in your speech, what patterns are repeated, how today differs from yesterday.
In group statistics (anonymous)
- How many participants recorded morning/evening per day.
- Who leads regularly (streak - a series of days in a row).
- The general dynamics of “states of the day” - what mood prevails in the group.
═══ 05 · PREDICTIVE MODEL ═══
05 AI and prediction
How does this form a predictive model?
When we have 30–60 days of your reflections + data from devices, AI beginspredict:
what fortune are you most likely to get by the evening if you start the day from X.
1
Linguistic speech analysis
AI looks at marker words: excuses, subjunctive mood (“if only”), level of confidence, speed and density of speech.
2
Phenomenological status
Recognizes where you logged in on the day - fromdeficit(cortisol running, anxiety) orsurplus(state of the Innovator, resource).
3
Break point
Finds a specific event during the day that broke the internal rhythm - and sees how it affected physiology (HRV, sleep, RI).
4
Correlation and forecast
ties yoursmorning settingsWithevening resultand device data. In the third month, the AI can say: “based on morning reflection, I see that HRV will drop by 15% by the evening.”
“When you enter the day in the morning with pure focus and record it with your voice, your eventfulness in the evening closes by 90% without a drop in HRV. It’s worth talking about deficit goals in the morning - in the evening you’ll fail in results, and the tracker records severe stress. Your condition directly shapes your income.”
═══ 06 · CONNECTION WITH RHYTHMS ═══
06 · Rhythms of the brain and heart
How reflection changes physiology
NIHILO's main focus isvoluntary neuroplasticity. The ability to consciously influence the rhythms of the brain and heart through intention, attention and state. Reflection is a tool for training this ability.
What changes with regular practice
-
Alpha brain rhythm(EEG, Relaxation Index) - the ability to enter the mode increases
inner peace without loss of clarity. This can be seen in NEIRY mini-checks.
-
HRV (Heart Rate Variability)— grows from Garmin / Apple Watch data.
The higher the HRV, the more flexible the nervous system is, the better it recovers.
-
Sleep quality— the depth and architecture of sleep are normalized with regularity
evening reflection (reconciliation closes the “unclosed gestalts” of the day).
-
State switching speed- how quickly can you get out of the hustle and bustle
to rest and back. This is measured by the SI (Switching Index) index in the checkup.
Without reflection, you don’t know exactly when you’re going astray. With reflection - you have a map of break points,
and every cycle (30 days) you narrow down the areas where the rhythm fails.

How to do it in reality
Voice or text?
Voice is better.AI reads not only words, but also speech characteristics:
pace, pauses, emotional density. This gives it richer context. Ideally - in voice for 1-2 minutes.
The text is also ok.If the voice is uncomfortable (at work, on the road, near people) -
write in text. The main thing is meaningful, not “everything is ok.”
Regularity is more important than length
30 seconds every day > 10 minutes once a week. AI builds a model on time series—skipping a day creates a gap in the data.
Regular short recording is more accurate than rare long one.
When to write
Morning— the first 15–30 minutes after waking up, while the “optics of the day” has not yet become confused by the outside.
You can do it right in bed with your voice.
Evening- 30–60 minutes before bedtime, after dinner. Not in the bed itself - otherwise the brain
will tie reflection to sleep and it will be more difficult to fall asleep.
If you missed a day
Don't "double dose." Just write down the next morning as usual. AI will notice the omission
and will take this into account in the analysis - omissions are also information.
