Personalised practice
Tell Manomithra what you want from your practice, how much time you have, and how experienced you are. It builds a routine by choosing and ordering practices from a reviewed library — the same set every time, arranged differently for you.
By Bonitha Mallipeddi and Maithrinath Tata
Introduction
Most routine builders start with a language model and a blank page. Manomithra starts the other way round: with a library of practices that already exist, each one documented, attributed and reviewed, and with a set of rules about who should not be asked to do what.
That order matters. It means the system has to choose from practices that have already been written down and checked, rather than inventing something plausible on the spot. It means the same practice appears in the same form every time you meet it. And it means every recommendation can be traced back to the record it came from.
The personalisation sits in the arrangement — which practices, in which order, at what length, given the time you said you had. Not in the content of the practices themselves.
How it works
The sequence is fixed. What changes between one routine and the next is the content, not the process.
Experience, what your body can comfortably do right now, what you would rather avoid, and anything self-declared that affects your practice.
Short, plain questions. Everything you enter is optional except what you choose to share, and you can see and change it later.
What you want the practice to be for, and how many minutes you realistically have on the days you will do it.
The time you pick is a ceiling, not a target. A 20-minute request produces something that fits in 20 minutes.
The safety layer removes anything that does not fit, then the planner arranges what is left into a warm-up, a main sequence and a cool-down.
Nothing is invented at this stage. Every item on the routine is a record in the library, and you can open any of them and read where it came from.
Work through the session, mark what you actually did, and tell us how it went.
Your feedback is the only thing that changes the next routine. Nothing is adjusted behind your back.
Practice library
The library is being assembled. These are the counts it is being built to, and they are the only figures we publish.
125
Asanas
Postures held, repeated or moved through, described with its alignment, its common mistakes and what to watch for.
55
Mudras
Yogic and meditative hand and arm positions, with the seated practice each one normally belongs to.
30
Pranayama
Breath practices, described with the ratio, the retention and the precautions that come with them.
Practices in total (210)
Individual records are published as they are written and reviewed. An empty category means the records for it are still being prepared — it does not mean the practices do not exist.
Student's Corner
Six situations the library is organised for, chosen because they are real: the gap between sessions, the hour before work, the two ends of a day, and the pressure in between.
Awaiting dataset
A sequence that fits into a gap of ten to fifteen minutes, without a long warm-up, and leaves you able to return to work.
Awaiting dataset
A short, mostly seated practice that finishes with you sitting upright and ready to begin.
Awaiting dataset
A practice that raises alertness and warms the body without exhausting it before the day has properly started.
Awaiting dataset
A sequence that lowers effort over its course rather than starting low and building.
Awaiting dataset
A practice with a defined seat, a defined length, and something to return attention to when it wanders.
Awaiting dataset
A practice scaled to a difficult period rather than abandoned because a long practice is not achievable.
Sequences
Salutation sequences that can be practised as they are, independent of anything Manomithra arranges for you.
Salutation to the Sun
A moving sequence that warms the whole body. Presented as one common twelve-position pattern, alongside the traditions that count differently.
Salutation to the Moon
A lateral sequence. Several traditions exist; the version held here is one symmetrical fourteen-position form, not the accepted one.
Professionals
Manomithra is being built around a professional ecosystem. It is not operating yet, and nothing below is a claim that it already is.
The professional programme is intended for practising teachers and therapists who want their work to sit alongside a personalised practice library — as a reference a student can check a routine against, and as a way to be found when the programme opens.
There is no application process running today, and no standard to meet yet. Registering interest below is an expression of interest only: it creates a record a person will read, not a queue position or a commitment.
Safety
Before any practice reaches you, a filter compares it against your own declared considerations. It removes practices; it never adds them.
The statement, in full
These practices support relaxation, mobility and general wellbeing. They are not a replacement for medical treatment.
Begin
You can read the whole practice library, both salutation sequences and the safety approach without creating an account. A routine of your own is one step further.
