A prototype tool made for the Self Care Game Jam

Both speculative and practical,  I made this as a tool for health now, and as a concept for the future.

Mind OS was created as my idea of a tool for self care.

 As a speculative future concept, It's a free program that works exactly as an operating system for the mind, designed for helping with health and memory archiving. When someone experiences a variety of symptoms related to their mental health that might escalate to certain levels, their Mind OS would 'reboot' and an Recovery AI executes, aiding them through various ways reducing stress and anxiety in the program, till the user felt ready to return to the present.

As a practical tool for now, this prototype features rooms showcasing breathing exercises and meditation methods that can be used for self care using visualisation techniques and positive affirmations. The tool can be developed even further to include extended versions of these methods.

 Aimed at our BIPOC & LGBTQ+ communities  who may not have anyone to talk to, or help regarding mental health for various reasons such. We take our health and tech into our own hands, creating virtual places for ourselves online where we can flourish.

 Inspired by vintage operating systems and vaporwave aesthetics.
