*Breathe, repeat, internalize*

A specialized ritual type that guides timed meditation sessions with cycling affirmations. Set a duration, write your mantra lines, and start a full-screen immersive experience with ambient breathing animations. Lines fade in and out as you breathe, internalize, and repeat. A Premium feature; any partner's Premium unlocks it.

## Why it exists

Standard rituals track whether something was done. Mantras go deeper — they create a meditative space where affirmations are internalized through repetition and breathing. It's the difference between checking a box and genuinely sitting with an intention.

## Capabilities

### Mantra Lines

Write an array of affirmations that cycle with smooth fade transitions. Each line stays visible for at least 4 seconds, distributed evenly across the session.

### Timed Sessions

Set a session length anywhere from 1 to 120 minutes. The timer auto-distributes your mantra lines across the full session.

### Ambient Breathing

Full-screen radial animation with rotating line groups creates an organic breathing rhythm. Three rotation speeds with staggered opacity pulses.

### Intro Message

Optional text shown before the meditation begins. Use it to set an intention, provide context, or frame the session.

## How each role uses it

### For Dominants (Dominant)

Craft the affirmations your submissive internalizes during meditation.

- Write specific affirmations that reinforce your expectations
- Set session duration to match intensity
- Review completion to confirm the session was held
- Combine with daily ritual scheduling for consistency

### For Submissives (submissive)

An immersive, meditative experience that deepens your connection to the dynamic.

- Full-screen breathing animation guides your focus
- Affirmations cycle naturally — no manual interaction needed
- Track session duration to see your meditation consistency
- Mantra rituals count toward streaks and points like any ritual

## Use cases

- Daily devotion: 5-minute morning mantra with affirmations set by your Dominant
- Mindset reinforcement: Repeat affirmations about service, gratitude, or intention
- Grounding ritual: Post-scene breathing meditation as part of aftercare
- Self-care: Personal mantras for confidence, focus, or emotional grounding
