Stabalise & shadow

Purpose
  • Create physiological safety while embedding residents in real-world rhythm from the first morning.
Focus
  • Sleep rhythm and circadian cues
  • Nutritional stability and hydration
  • Tea Lab shadowing and low-stakes social exposure
  • Breath-led movement and grounding
Method
  • Structured daily rhythm + supervised Tea Lab apprenticeship + continuous health mapping
    (CGM by day, TipTraq by night)
Measures
  • Energy stability (CGM)
  • Stress patterns (CGM + sleep data)
  • Sleep quality (TipTraq)
Outcomes
  • Body feels safer and more settled
  • Daily rhythm becomes predictable
  • Early confidence being around people

Restore & build capacity

Purpose
  • Strengthen the systems that support energy, focus, mood, and resilience.
Focus
  • Improving sleep depth and repair
  • Building movement confidence
  • Strengthening stress tolerance
  • Taking on more responsibility in the Tea Lab
Method
  • Progressive training across sleep, movement, thinking, and contribution (CGM + TipTraq used to guide pace and prevent overload)
Measures
  • Deep & REM sleep (TipTraq)
  • Energy curve across the day (CGM)
  • Focus and follow‑through (task performance)
  • Ability to handle small challenges (behavioural cues)
Outcomes
  • More stable energy
  • Clearer thinking
  • Fewer emotional crashes
  • Stronger capacity to participate and contribute

Rehearse & contribute

Purpose
  • Practice holding a healthy rhythm while contributing in real‑world situations.
Focus
  • Keeping a steady daily routine
  • Working confidently in the Tea Lab
  • Building social comfort and communication
  • Taking ownership of tasks
Method
  • Hands‑on apprenticeship + group coaching + real‑world practice (CGM shows how the body handles social load; TipTraq shows recovery)
Measures
  • Consistency of routine
  • Ease in social situations
  • Reliability and teamwork
  • Stress recovery overnight
Outcomes
  • Rhythm holds without constant support
  • Social confidence grows
  • Able to contribute meaningfully
  • Less avoidance, more participation

Transition & sustain

Purpose
  • Prepare for life after Baro Place with a clear plan, stable rhythm, and ongoing support.
Focus
  • Reviewing progress and capacity
  • Planning next steps (work, study, community)
  • Strengthening support networks
  • Leading small tasks in the Tea Lab
Method
  • Co-designed transition plan + alumni onboarding + final rhythm consolidation (CGM + TipTraq create a personal capacity profile for life after the programme)
Measures
  • Sleep, stress, movement, focus
  • Confidence in daily tasks
  • Readiness for next steps
  • Support systems in place
Outcomes
  • Durable recovery gains
  • High resilience to stress and disruption
  • Stable ketone-based energy metabolism
  • Biological patterns associated with long-term healthspan
