Abstract: A real-time formalism is proposed to incorporate finite temperatures into confined quark systems at the example of the Generalised Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model for QCD. This approach allows one to study various properties of the system at $T>0$, such as chiral symmetry breaking and restoration, properties of the bound-state spectrum, and so on.
