Skills Reference

The healing swarm provides skills for the complete development lifecycle—build new healing applications from scratch, or add healing properties to existing projects.


Skills Overview

Development Skills (Build New)

SkillTriggerPurpose
Research/healing-researchDeep research into healing traditions and clinical evidence
Design/healing-designDesign healing application UX and visuals

Specialized Integration Patterns:

PatternBest For
Project AnalysisAI-powered HEAL assessment of any codebase

Integral Theory Skills (Wilber)

SkillTriggerPurpose
AQAL Check-In/aqal-check-inStructured four-quadrant self-inquiry
Shadow Integration/shadow-work3-2-1 shadow process with safety architecture
Spectrum Meditation/spectrum-meditationThree-body progressive state training
Integral Psychograph/integral-psychographDevelopmental line self-reflection (not assessment)
Perspective Practice/perspective-practiceQuadrant perspective-taking on life situations

Note: Integral theory skills draw on Ken Wilber's AQAL metatheory (2000), developmental psychology (Piaget, Cook-Greuter, Kohlberg, Kegan), and contemplative traditions. The AQAL framework is labeled as a theoretical synthesis — useful for self-reflection but not a validated clinical instrument. All content includes explicit evidence-level labeling.

Consciousness Skills (Grinberg Research)

SkillTriggerPurpose
Coherence Meditation/coherence-meditationGuided interhemispheric coherence practices
Syntergic Research/syntergic-researchDeep research into Grinberg's consciousness science
Resonance Pairing/resonance-pairingPaired/group transferred potential protocols
Orbital Journey/orbital-journeyProgressive multi-day consciousness expansion

Note: Consciousness skills are based on the preliminary research of Dr. Jacobo Grinberg-Zylberbaum (UNAM, 1970s-1994). All content produced by these skills includes explicit evidence-level labeling and safety framing.

Breathwork Skills (Wim Hof Method)

SkillTriggerPurpose
WHM Breathwork/whm-breathworkGuided WHM breathing protocols with safety architecture
WHM Cold Exposure/whm-cold-exposureProgressive cold adaptation protocols
WHM Journey/whm-journeyMulti-week integrated WHM program (all 3 pillars)

Note: Breathwork skills are based on Wim Hof Method research (Kox et al. 2014, Muzik et al. 2018) with proper safety architecture. All protocols include comprehensive contraindication screening and never practice near water warnings.

Language Awareness Skills (Cognitive Deautomatization)

SkillTriggerPurpose
Language Awareness/language-awarenessIndividual cognitive deautomatization practices
Group Perception/group-perceptionGroup perception exercises with consent frameworks

Note: Language awareness skills draw on cognitive deautomatization research (Deikman 1966), semantic satiation studies, and Chase Hughes' Tongue (2024), with cross-tradition parallels from Zen, Dzogchen, and phenomenology. All protocols include psychological safety framing and grounding anchors.

Sound & Vibratory Healing

SkillTriggerPurpose
Sound Healing/sound-healingTherapeutic sound practices — mantra, chanting, toning, singing bowl

Note: Sound healing covers Vedic mantra, Psalm chanting, Gregorian chant, Tibetan singing bowl, and vagal toning. All protocols screen for hearing conditions and respect open/closed practice boundaries.

Hyperhumanism & Sound Consciousness (Carl Hayden Smith)

SkillTriggerPurpose
Archaeoacoustic Toning/archaeoacoustic-toningVocal toning at sacred site frequencies
Sound Consciousness/sound-consciousnessMuseum of Consciousness-style samples with 6D self-assessment
Holotechnica Stack/holotechnica-stackEndo-technology experience stacks for altered traits
Hyperhumanism Inquiry/hyperhumanism-inquiryGuided inquiry on technology and innate human capacities
Umwelt Practice/umwelt-practiceSensory augmentation and perceiving-as-other exercises
Cyberdelic Research/cyberdelic-researchDeep research into consciousness technologies and endo-tech

Note: Hyperhumanism skills are based on the work of Carl Hayden Smith (Museum of Consciousness, Balliol College, Oxford). They explore endo-technologies (internal practices) for consciousness exploration. Pharmaco-technologies are HARD EXCLUDED from all content. Archaeoacoustic evidence is preliminary. Holotechnica stacking methodology is theoretical. All content includes explicit evidence-level labeling and safety framing.

Somatic & Movement Healing

SkillTriggerPurpose
Somatic Movement/somatic-practiceGentle movement protocols — qigong, tai chi, yoga, walking meditation

Note: Every somatic practice includes standing, seated, lying, and wheelchair modifications. Movement is within comfort, never through pain. Traditions include qigong, tai chi, yoga, kinhin, and Feldenkrais.

Sleep & Dream Healing

SkillTriggerPurpose
Sleep Healing/sleep-healingEvening wind-down, bedtime meditation, dream journaling

Note: Sleep healing includes Asclepian dream temples, Tibetan dream yoga, TCM organ clock, and Ayurvedic dinacharya traditions. The screen paradox (device-delivered sleep guidance) is addressed honestly in every protocol.

Nature-Based Healing

SkillTriggerPurpose
Nature Healing/nature-healingShinrin-yoku, earthing, garden therapy, Five Element observation

Note: 60+ forest bathing studies support this practice. Urban and indoor alternatives are always available — never as "lesser" options. Environmental privilege is acknowledged explicitly.

Water & Hydrotherapy

SkillTriggerPurpose
Water Healing/water-healingContrast therapy, Kneipp method, ritual bathing education

Note: Extends the existing cold exposure skill into warm water, contrast therapy, and cultural context. Drowning and cardiac risk warnings are non-negotiable in every protocol.

Grief & Bereavement Healing

SkillTriggerPurpose
Grief Healing/grief-healingGrief-informed practices across mourning traditions

Note: Grief content carries the highest psychological sensitivity. Every practice includes crisis resources, minimum three exit ramps, and suicidal ideation screening. Jewish mourning, Buddhist impermanence, Dia de los Muertos, and Celtic keening traditions are represented.

Expressive & Creative Healing

SkillTriggerPurpose
Expressive Healing/expressive-healingPennebaker writing, bibliotherapy, art-as-process

Note: Supported by 200+ studies on expressive writing. Privacy receives the strongest protections of any content type. No artistic skill required. Navajo sand painting is a closed practice — referenced but never taught.

Community & Relational Healing

SkillTriggerPurpose
Community Healing/community-healingHealing circles, talking circles, Sangha, Quaker meeting

Note: All group practices require trained facilitation. Consent frameworks, confidentiality agreements, and power dynamic awareness are built into every protocol. Traditions include Mussar, Sangha, Ubuntu, and 12-Step.

Contemplative Inquiry

SkillTriggerPurpose
Contemplative Inquiry/contemplative-inquiryZen koan, Advaitic self-inquiry, Socratic questioning, Ignatian Examen

Note: Extends language awareness into deeper investigation. Progressive levels from structured reflection to silent investigation. Dzogchen is noted as a closed tradition (reference only, never taught).

PNI Research Bridge

SkillTriggerPurpose
PNI Research/pni-researchMind-body-immune science bridging traditions and biology

Note: PNI strengthens the evidence base for all other skills by mapping traditional healing claims to documented biological pathways (HPA axis, vagal tone, telomeres, placebo mechanisms, wound healing).

Safety Infrastructure (P0)

ResourcePurpose
Safety InfrastructureCrisis response, contraindications, outcome measurement, practice pathways

Note: The safety layer underpinning every skill. Includes the contraindication database, crisis response protocols, outcome measurement framework, and cross-skill integration pathways.
