The Crossing Diagnostic

Before you choose the tool, know the state.
What you're carrying at the threshold determines what will actually help.

A breath doesn't always fix it. Sometimes you need a walk. Sometimes a song. Sometimes you need to change where you're standing entirely. The reason the same tool works brilliantly one day and does nothing the next isn't inconsistency — it's that your nervous system is in a different state, and the state determines the prescription.

This diagnostic is the Notice step. It takes 45 seconds. Run it at the doorstep, in the parking lot, on the commute. What you find tells you what to do next — not what you always do, but what this moment actually needs.
