1. Getting Started: Access and Main Exploration
To enter this ecosystem, simply tap the Wellness icon (the meditating figure) on your app's bottom navigation bar.
:::info Premium Access This is an exclusive experience for Premium subscribers. If you are not Premium yet, you will see a screen inviting you to unlock all of its benefits. :::
Once inside, you'll notice that the main screen is designed to be intuitive and easy to navigate:
- Section Selector (Top Tabs): At the top, you will see a switch to quickly toggle between Soundhealing and Breathwork.
- Search Bar: Looking for something specific? Use the bar with the magnifying glass to type keywords (e.g., "Rain", "Sleep", "Stress") and quickly find your ideal session.
- Quick Filters (Chips): Just below the search bar, swipe left or right to view the category buttons. You can filter by "Sleep", "Relaxation", "Focus", "Anxiety", or exclusively view your "Favorites".
- Content Cards: Each session is presented on an elegant card. You can see the title, a brief description, how many times the community has played that track, and a star icon. Tap the star to save that exercise to your personal Favorites list!
2. Auditory Magic: The Soundhealing Module
When you select a Soundhealing track, you enter an immersive player designed to soothe your senses.
👁️ The Preview
Before starting, you will see a screen with the sound's cover art, its category, and a detailed description of its benefits. If it sounds right for you, tap the large green "Play Now" button.
📱 The Full-Screen Player
Once playing, the screen will subtly darken to protect your eyes (ideal for nighttime). Here you have total control:
- Central Button (Play/Pause): Tap the mint green circle in the center to pause or resume your track.
- Favorite (Heart): In the top right corner, tap the heart to add or remove the track from your favorites at any time.
- Minimize (Down Arrow): In the top left corner, tap the arrow to hide the player. The music will keep playing while you browse other parts of CaloriTrack!
🛠️ Advanced Player Tools
Right next to the Play/Pause button, you will find three key controls:
- Timer (Clock Icon): Going to sleep? Tap this icon to set an auto-turn-off timer. You can use the wheel to choose exact hours and minutes, or use the quick access buttons (15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes). The music will stop on its own so it won't drain your battery while you sleep.
- AirPlay: Tap this icon to send the surround sound to your Apple TV, HomePod, or any compatible smart speaker.
- Repeat (Loop - Infinity/Arrows Icon): Tap to toggle between three modes:
- Off: The track stops when it finishes.
- Repeat once (1): It plays again only one more time.
- Infinity (∞): Ideal for sleeping, the track will loop all night long.
🎛️ Unified Card: Volume and Ambience
At the bottom, you will see a special card that is the crown jewel of Soundhealing: the dual mixer.
- Main Volume: Use the first slider to adjust the volume of the main melody.
- Add Ambience (The "+" button): Tap the button with the "+" symbol (or the leaf icon) to open the Ambience Mixer. Here you can choose from a library of high-fidelity natural sounds: Rain, Ocean Waves, Campfire, Strong Wind, Forest, Waterfall, among others.
- Perfect Mix: Once an ambience is chosen, use the second slider to exclusively adjust the volume of the rain or forest, creating the perfect mix alongside the main melody. If you want to remove the ambience, just tap the small "X"!
🪟 The Dynamic Mini-Player
If you minimize the player to go look at your macros or your fast, you will see a "Mini Player" floating at the bottom of the screen.
- It has quick Play/Pause and AirPlay controls.
- Smart Hiding: If you feel it's in the way on the screen, simply swipe the mini-player to the left. It will hide in a small tab on the edge of your screen. Tap that tab to expand it again.
3. Lung Power: The Breathwork Module
Conscious breathing is your remote control for the nervous system. Select the top "Breathwork" tab and choose an exercise (for example, for "Better Sleep" or "Energy").
🫁 Animated Breathing Interface
Upon starting, the screen transforms into a minimalist environment. You will see a pulsating central circle and dynamic colors:
- Follow the Circle: The mint green circle will expand when you should Inhale and contract when you should Exhale.
- Clear Instructions: In the center of the circle, you will read exactly what to do (Inhale, Hold, Exhale, Hold) accompanied by a real-time seconds countdown in large numbers.
⏯️ Session Controls
- Play/Stop Button: At the bottom, tap the large circular button to start the exercise. If you need to stop halfway through, tap it again (it will turn red to stop).
- Progress: At the top, you will see a bar indicating how much time is left to complete the entire session, plus a "Cycles" counter (e.g., 1/5) at the bottom.
- Haptic Vibration (The iPhone icon): Next to the Play button, there is a vibrating phone icon. When activated, your iPhone will emit subtle pulses synchronized with the breathing. This is incredible if you prefer to close your eyes; the vibration will guide you, telling you when to inhale and when to exhale without having to look at the screen.
4. Mood Tracking
Although accessed from the app's Header, tracking your emotional state is a vital piece of your Wellness ecosystem.
- How to enter? From the My Body (Health) or Nutrition screen, simply tap today's date in the top left corner.
- Mood Selector: A bright color slider will appear. Move it from left (Very Bad / Purple) to right (Very Good / Orange). The smiley face and icon will change to reflect your selection.
- Identify the Factors: Once you've chosen how you feel, tap "Next". A dropdown menu will open with categories: Life, Health, Work, and Activities. Select which things (Family, Sleep, Money, etc.) are influencing your day.
- Private Notes: There is a text box in case you want to write a short journal entry or thought about why you feel this way.
- History and Kai's Support: Your logs will be saved in a timeline list. If you ever record a negative mood ("Bad" or "Very Bad"), CaloriTrack will show you a special "Kai Coach" button inviting you to chat with your artificial intelligence, who will be ready to offer you support, Stoic advice, or simply listen to you.
