The Periodic
Table of the Self™

Know Yourself.
Grow with Precision.

This groundbreaking algorithm reveals the Aris Elements™ that make you uniquely you—and helps Aris understand how you think, feel, connect, and grow.

Engineered to deliver real-time, deeply personalized coaching, guidance, and development. This is more than insight—it’s a living system for meaningful, measurable transformation.

Inside The Periodic Table of the Self™

Each Behavioral Element represents a core dimension of your inner world—grounded in psychology and behavioral science, and designed to power adaptive, deeply personalized coaching.

Identity

How you express yourself and connect with others

Cognition

How you take in, process, and organize information

Judgment

How you evaluate situations and make decisions

Resolution

How you regulate emotions and navigate conflict

Motivation

What energizes you, drives your behavior, and meets your core needs

The Periodic Table of the Self™ is built around five core domains. Together, they form a complete map of how you show up—your personality, how you process the world, make decisions, navigate challenges, and find motivation.

Each Element is dynamically activated across four levels—Primary, Active, Balanced, and Subtle—based on your current patterns, emotional tone, and relational context.

This allows Aris to meet you with the right insights at the right time—tailoring coaching to reflect who you are and what you need most in the moment.

Together, these Elements power every part of your Aris experience—activating coaching paths, personalized insights, and emotionally intelligent support across your mental, physical, and relational life.
