Your wellbeing recipe

A recipe that's
uniquely yours.

Most people know they should look after themselves. They just don't have a practical, personalised system for doing it. plenesca builds you one — grounded in real science, built around how you actually live.

How it works

Three layers. One recipe.

Your wellbeing recipe is built in three tiers — each serving a different purpose in how you stay well.

🌅

Plan

Proactive wellbeing

The anchor activities you schedule because you know they keep you well. They hold your baseline up — even on ordinary weeks.

☀️

Maintain

Daily nourishment

Small, repeatable habits that keep positive emotions ticking over. The daily top-ups that prevent the slow drift downward.

🌿

Rescue

Restorative toolkit

Things to do right now when wellbeing drops. Fast-acting, personalised — not generic advice. Built from what genuinely helps you.

Your personal intake

Let's build your recipe

Ready when you are

Before we start

Here's what to expect

We're going to ask you about your life — honestly and specifically.

💬What you already do that supports your wellbeing
🌅What brings you calm, joy, and energy — in work and in life
🌿What you reach for when things feel hard
🧠A few practical things about your day-to-day — and an optional question about how your brain works

There are 12 questions in total. The more fully you answer, the more your recipe will actually fit your life — so it's worth taking your time. Some questions have space for longer answers — use it.

Allow 10–25 minutes — find a moment when you won't be interrupted

Your answers are used only to generate your recipe. We don't store or share your personal responses.

First, the basics

What's your name?

We'll use this to personalise your recipe.

Question 1 of 12

What do you already do that supports your wellbeing?

Think about the things you do regularly — however big or small — that you know make you feel better. Exercise counts. So does a bath, a weekly call with a friend, or making time to cook properly.

Try to name at least three things. What else? Even the things that feel obvious or small.

Question 2 of 12

When do you feel calm or at peace?

Thinking back over the past 10 days — in the moments you've felt genuinely settled, what were you doing? Who were you with? Where were you? How much time did you have?

Try to think of more than one moment. What else brings you that feeling — even briefly?

Question 3 of 12

What brings you joy, or makes you laugh?

Think back over the past couple of weeks. When did you last feel genuinely light — properly happy, even briefly? What was happening? Who was there?

Think wider — what else makes you smile, even in small ways? What would you do more of if you had more time?

Question 4 of 12

What excites or energises you?

Not just outside work — think about everything. When do you finish something and feel better than when you started, rather than drained?

Think across different areas — work, creativity, people, learning, physical activity. Where do you feel most energised?

Question 5 of 12

What parts of your work bring you energy or joy?

Work is part of life — and for many people, certain parts of it are genuinely nourishing. This isn't about work-life balance. It's about understanding which tasks or moments in your working day make you feel good.

What energises you at work — and what drains you most? Both answers matter.

Question 6 of 12

When does time disappear for you?

That state where you're completely absorbed — not watching the clock, not thinking about what's next. What are you usually doing? Where are you? Alone or with others?

Think across different contexts — creative work, physical activity, social situations, solitary activities. When does it happen most naturally?

Question 7 of 12

When do you feel most like yourself?

Not your most productive or most impressive self. Just most genuinely, comfortably you. The contexts, people, environments where you feel least like you're performing.

Where else does that feeling show up — even in brief moments? Think about the last week or two.

Question 8 of 12

What do you reach for when things feel hard?

This is for your Rescue tier. Be honest, not aspirational. What do you actually do when you're struggling — not what you think you should do.

Think about the last time you felt genuinely low or overwhelmed. What did you do, or want to do? What's helped in the past, even a little?

Question 9 of 12

A little about your day-to-day

So we can make sure your recipe is realistic for your life — not something that would require a completely different one.

How much time can you realistically give yourself each day?

Do you tend to prefer solo or social activities?

What do you have access to? (Pick all that apply)

Question 10 of 12

How are you feeling right now — and what's making life harder?

A quick check-in so your recipe starts in the right place. There's no wrong answer.

Broadly, right now I feel…

What's making life harder right now? Optional

Pick as many as feel true. This helps us tailor your recipe to where you actually are.

A note before we build your recipe.

plenesca is a practical wellbeing tool — it's not counselling, therapy, or a substitute for professional support. If things feel serious or you're in crisis, please reach out to your GP, a therapist, or someone you trust. If you're in the UK, the Samaritans are available 24/7 on 116 123.

Question 11 of 12 Optional

Do you identify as neurodivergent, or feel you might have neurodivergent tendencies?

Some brains are wired differently — and that genuinely changes what helps. This is completely optional. But if it applies to you, your answer will help us tailor your recipe to work with your brain, not against it. This is very much the Moderari approach: understanding your own brain so you can build the right environment to thrive.

This isn't a diagnosis — it's an invitation. Share as much or as little as feels right.

Selecting "No / prefer not to say" will skip the follow-up question. You can also just click Continue to skip.

Question 12 of 12 Optional

What challenges does your brain tend to bring — and what helps?

For example: social tiredness after being around people, difficulty switching off hyperfocus, sensory sensitivities, need for routine, overwhelm in busy environments, difficulty with transitions.

The more you share here, the more accurately we can build a recipe that works with how your brain actually functions. There is no wrong answer.
