About Shanlu − Kindness Journal
Shanlu is inspired by the East Asian tradition of merit journals. Each day, write down one small kindness, or one honest moment of noticing. No pushing, no broken-streak penalties, no anxious red badges. Whatever you write is received gently first. ■ Today: each day starts with one line - Each day brings one thing to go gently with, and one small thing to try - Tap Thanked, Listened, Gave way or Noticed to log today's kindness in one touch, or write it in your own words - "Weather of the heart", the lunar date and the 72 micro-seasons give today its texture ■ How you feel right now - Pick the feeling closest to this moment and get a line tuned to your rhythm for today - A 30-day mood calendar shows how your feelings come and go - Log it from Apple Watch with one tap ■ Mirror: turning records into understanding - "Recent Me" weaves your last week or two into a short reflection (free) - Topic readings: Seasons of Life, Ask One Question, Intimacy, My User Manual, plus career, learning, relationships and more - Every topic has a free preview; you can also buy an in-depth full version (about 3,000 words) for any single topic ■ Issatsu: one book a month - Everything you wrote this month, bound as it is into one book, with a note from your spirit ■ Spirit: always beside you, ready for a deeper talk - Your spirit receives every entry and slowly grows with you - When you're stuck, talk it through with your spirit, grounded in your own records, with no judging and no lecturing - It remembers what you've talked about ■ Daily records are free forever - Recording, your spirit, and "Recent Me" need no subscription [Purchases] - Membership (auto-renewing): JPY 1,380/month or JPY 9,800/year. Includes deep talks with your spirit, the monthly Issatsu, long-term trends and more - Premium (auto-renewing): JPY 1,780/month or JPY 12,800/year. Everything in Membership, plus a nudge at the moments worth noticing each day, "Rhythm now" on Apple Watch, and a "rhythm for tomorrow" every night - Full topic report (one-time purchase): JPY 1,500, or JPY 1,050 for members Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends.
