Decoding Your Emotions: How Tracking Moods Can Change Your Life

Emotional awareness is the first step toward emotional intelligence. Yet, most of us wander through our days unaware of what actually influences our mood. Is it sleep? Diet? Work stress? Or just the weather?

The Data of Feelings

When you track your mood daily, you turn subjective feelings into objective data. After a few weeks of using Timeline, you might notice:

• Your anxiety spikes every Sunday evening (Sunday Scaries).
• You feel 20% happier on days you exercise.
• Your mood dips mid-afternoon without a snack.

Validating Your Experience

Sometimes, seeing a string of "Good" days can be a powerful reminder that life isn't all bad, even when a bad moment hits. Conversely, acknowledging a string of "Bad" days validates your struggle and can be the nudge you need to seek support or make a change.

It's Not About Being Happy All the Time

The goal of mood tracking isn't to force happiness. It's to understand the full spectrum of your human experience. Timeline allows you to log negative emotions without judgment, creating a safe space for release.
