Health & Energy Guide

Build lasting health habits, run Pomodoro focus sessions, track goals with subtasks, and monitor your daily metrics — all from one unified module pair.

Energy Overview

The Energy module is designed to protect and amplify your mental output. It groups three tools that work together: a persistent Pomodoro timer, a goal tracker with subtasks, and an ideas capture board.

Pomodoro Focus Sessions

The Pomodoro technique breaks work into focused sprints (typically 25 minutes) separated by short breaks. PRP's timer stays visible across every screen via a floating banner.

1. Go to Energy → Focus.
2. Set your session duration (default: 25 min) and break length (default: 5 min).
3. Optionally link the session to a goal or task for automatic time logging.
4. Tap Start — a floating banner appears at the top of every screen.
5. When the timer ends, PRP notifies you to take a break.
6. After 4 sessions, take a longer break (default: 15 min).

Goal Tracking

Goals in PRP support full subtask trees, so you can break big ambitions into daily actions:

1. Go to Energy → Goals → Add Goal.
2. Enter a title, target date, and priority level.
3. Add subtasks — each stored as JSONB, supporting unlimited nesting.
4. Mark subtasks complete as you progress. The goal card shows a live completion percentage.
5. Completed goals are archived automatically — your history is always preserved.

Ideas Manager

Capture ideas before they disappear. The Ideas board is a lightweight scratch-pad:

• Tap + to add an idea with a title and optional body text.
• Tag ideas by category (project, personal, later, etc.).
• Promote an idea to a full Goal with one tap when you're ready to act on it.

Health Overview

The Health module tracks the physical side of your life — what you do every day, consistently. It focuses on building streaks, not perfection.

Habit Tracking

Habits are the core of the Health module. Each habit has a daily check-in and generates a GitHub-style heatmap of your streaks:

1. Go to Health → Habits → Add Habit.
2. Name the habit and choose a frequency: daily, weekdays, or custom days.
3. Pick an icon and color for quick visual identification.
4. Each day, tap the habit to mark it complete. Your streak counter increments.
5. View the Habit Heatmap to see consistency over the past year at a glance.

Fasting Timer

The fasting timer tracks intermittent fasting windows with a live countdown:

1. Go to Health → Fasting.
2. Choose a fasting protocol: 16:8, 18:6, 20:4, or custom.
3. Tap Start Fast when you begin your fast.
4. A live elapsed timer shows how far into your window you are.
5. Tap Break Fast when you eat — the session is logged with duration.
6. View your fasting history as a calendar to spot patterns.

Daily Metrics

Log your key health numbers each day to build a longitudinal picture of your wellbeing:

• Steps — enter manually or sync from your device's step count.
• Sleep — log hours of sleep each night; weekly average shown on dashboard.
• Water — tap to log glasses of water toward your daily goal.
• Weight — optional weight log with a trend line chart.

All metrics are visible on the Health dashboard as a daily summary card — no digging required.
