A weather report for your body.

A small publication on cycles, rhythms, and the body the calendar can't see. On plants. On the moon. On building a quiet kind of life inside a loud one.

The calendar has no idea how I'm doing.

It's great at meetings. Terrible at bodies.

I'm extremely on time. I just don't feel like I'm in the right week. The older I get, the less the date matters. What matters more is the season. When the sun shows up. When it disappears. How long the day actually feels…

After a few weeks, this is what starts to show up.

— STARTING TO REPEAT —

Quiet Sundays → best sleep. Three weeks running.

A small reframe

You're not "off" today — you're 76% of the way through this lunar month. That's data, not a flaw.

— Step 03 —

Know what's coming.

The rest week you can now name. The luteal day you can prepare for. The full moon you'll probably sleep less around. A weather report — because the weather is real.

An invitation

Most weeks aren't the same.

Your sleep, your energy, your patience, your appetite, your softness — they move with cycles you can name once you start watching.

Some are monthly. Some are the moon. Some are the season changing outside your window. Most of us were never taught how to read them. We were taught to override them.

Stillware is a quiet way to track what's actually happening in your body, learn what it tends to do, and know what's coming next. Built so the data only ever lives on your phone — because privacy isn't a feature, it's the only way this works.

You're not random. You're cyclical.

— What we don't know about you —

We don't know what you tracked today.

Or yesterday. Or the day before. Stillware lives on your phone, not on a server. We can't read your check-ins, your cycle, your journal, your dreams, or your tarot pulls.

We can't share what we don't have. We can't lose what we don't store. No subpoena can reach a database that doesn't exist.

Most period apps slurp your data into the cloud. We made the version that doesn't.
