# Mood Atlas

Mood Atlas is an [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md) plugin that expands your emotional vocabulary as you journal. Type any emotion word followed by a trigger key to pull up all the feeling words in the same emotional region - helping you find the most precise word for what you're experiencing.

## How it works

Type an emotion word, then press `^` (configurable). A dropdown appears showing all emotions in the same region, so you can choose the one that fits best.

## Emotion word lists

The following three lists are available to choose from, and each can be customized in the plugin settings:

| List | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **Hoffman/NVC Combined** *(default)* | All emotions from both lists merged into one, plus a few more. |
| **Hoffman Emotions** | Feelings list used by the Hoffman Institute ([Source](https://www.hoffmaninstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/Practices-FeelingsSensations.pdf)) |
| **NVC Emotions** | Feelings list from the book [Nonviolent Communication](https://www.cnvc.org) by Marshall Rosenberg |
