How the Emotional Forecast Engine works and what it can help you discover

📊 How It Works

The Emotional Forecast Engine predicts your emotional states for the next 3 days by analyzing 6 behavioral signals that influence mood:

😴 Sleep Quality

Hours of sleep directly impact emotional regulation and resilience.

👟 Physical Activity

Daily steps correlate with mood stability and energy levels.

📱 Screen Time

Excessive screen time can increase anxiety and reduce focus.

💬 Social Sentiment

The tone of your messages reflects and influences emotional state.

🎵 Music Mood

Music valence (uplifting vs sad) affects emotional resonance.

📅 Life Events

Calendar events create structure and influence emotional patterns.

Sad 😞

Reflective, withdrawn, melancholic. Often correlates with low activity and sad media.
