PMA Stoic Method

PMA Stoic Method is a private, local-first reflection app built around a structured five-step process:

SEE → SEPARATE → EXAMINE → REFRAME → CHOOSE

The method helps you slow down, distinguish what happened from the meaning you gave it, examine the thought beneath the feeling, consider another fair interpretation, and choose your next action deliberately.

LOOKING GLASS

Use the five-step Looking Glass process with real situations from everyday life.

SEE
Describe what happened as clearly as you can.

SEPARATE
Sort your own statements into fact or interpretation. The goal is to notice where observation ends and interpretation begins.

EXAMINE
Identify what you are feeling, how strong it feels, and the thought or self-talk sitting underneath it.

REFRAME
Ask what else could reasonably be true without ignoring the facts. This is not forced positive thinking. It is another fair reading of the same situation.

CHOOSE
Decide what is yours to carry, what is not yours to carry, and what deliberate action you want to take next.

CLEAR VIEW

Bring the five steps together in one concise reflection before choosing whether to save or share it.

DAILY PERSPECTIVE

Start the day with a Stoic perspective, a question to examine, and a practical PMA action for everyday life.

JOURNAL

Save only the reflections you choose. Search them, revisit them, mark favorites, export them, or delete them whenever you wish.

PATTERNS

Notice recurring thoughts and feelings across your own saved reflections. Patterns are presented as observations, not diagnoses.

PMA Stoic Method brings together Stoic principles, Positive Mental Attitude (PMA), and psychology-inspired reflection in one structured process.

It does not tell you what to think. It gives you a method for examining how you think.

See clearly. Separate carefully. Examine honestly. Reframe fairly. Choose deliberately.
