Expand your emotional vocabulary beyond 'happy' and 'sad' with inline emotion suggestions as you journal.
Mood Atlas
Mood Atlas is an Obsidian 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) |
| NVC Emotions | Feelings list from the book Nonviolent Communication by Marshall Rosenberg |
