Name a feeling, and your brain stops shouting.
Putting an emotion into words measurably lowers activity in the amygdala and with it, the reaction.

Say what happened
Talk or type — Feels finds the word
How it works
Describe what happened. Feels helps you find the feeling.
In your own words, typed or spoken. If your note is unclear, it asks one gentle follow-up question. You can always pick a different word, or choose from the wheel yourself.
The feelings wheel
The AI is support, not the destination.
Each time, Feels shows what the feeling means and where it sits on the wheel. The aim is that, with time, you open the wheel and name your feelings yourself.
