Etymologically, the word mood derives from the Old English mōd which denoted military courage, but could also refer to a person’s humor, temper, or disposition at a particular time. The cognate Gothic mōds translates both θυμός “mood, spiritedness” and ὀργή “anger”. Stressful life events like death, divorce, or trauma can also trigger depression, especially if someone has already had it before or there’s a genetic component. In addition to supporting students, Wayang Outpost provides support for teachers. In particular, Wayang’s assessment of student performance throughout their interaction with the system is reified through a graphical interface designed to show student progress to teachers.
Remember, the creative process is non-linear, so you may move back and forth between the steps as you go. When Ontario was first placed under lockdown in March 2020, I, like many other psych-service users found myself relying on Skype and phone sessions to reach my therapist. Admittedly, I already felt incredibly privileged to even have a therapist, and one that I really found helpful. Nonetheless, I found myself unhappy with, and limited by our virtual sessions.
SharePlay for CarPlay also allows everyone in the car to play their favorite music and contribute to the songs that are playing. The Mail app has a limited number of new features, but there is now an option to autofill one-time verification codes that are received in Mail in Safari without having to open up the Mail app. The Photos app is now able to better recognize people, plus it can distinguish between different pets so you can add your cats and dogs to the People album (which is now the Pets and People album).

Each participant can access, edit, and add to the same set of passwords once a password sharing group has been set up, and passwords stay up to date for everyone.
ThatMood is all on top of the fact that eMoods had access to my GPS, my photo albums, and a history of other webpages I’ve visited, all while convincing its users that their data was “their own”. Among new mothers, another study found that lower levels of fish consumption, along with lower levels of DHA (the omega-3 fatty acid found in fish) in breast milk, tended to be linked to higher rates of postpartum depression. Researchers have noted that omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids may be mood stabilizers, playing a role in mental well-being. Then I talk about behavioral strategies for bipolar and depression.

A good recent example is the Interstellar poster, but if you’re looking, it’s very easy to find. In college, he was obsessed with calories—what was and wasn’t working when he ran. The simple equation of calories in and out, the default presumption, didn’t actually seem to measure up. At the time, in the eighties, it was hard to find medical schools that taught nutrition (“Except the one in Loma Linda, and that was run by Seventh-day Adventists,” he said), so he wound up at the National College for Naturopathic Medicine, in Portland, Oregon. One and a half billion years ago, the planet’s only life-forms were single-celled. In time, the ingested bacterium’s capacity for feeding on oxygen managed to increase, by an order of magnitude, the amount of energy available to its anaerobic host.
