📚 Explanation
What is an Emotional Balance Score?
Your Emotional Balance Score is a simple 0–100 number that summarizes how steady, supported, and resilient you’ve felt recently. It’s designed for normal humans — not clinicians — and it’s meant to answer one question: “If I zoom out on my last week, how balanced do I feel?”
People often judge their emotional life based on a single tough day. But emotions fluctuate. The more useful view is a weekly snapshot — and trends over time. This calculator combines six practical factors: mood steadiness, stress load, sleep quality, focus, coping/recovery, and social connection. Together, these paint a helpful picture of whether you’re in a stable season or a strained one.
Why balance matters
- Better decisions: balanced emotions make it easier to choose wisely instead of reacting.
- More energy: emotional overload is exhausting; stability frees up mental bandwidth.
- Healthier relationships: regulation improves communication and reduces conflict spirals.
- Consistency: you can show up for work, goals, and habits more reliably.
What this score is NOT
- It’s not a diagnosis and it doesn’t detect depression, anxiety, or any condition.
- It doesn’t replace therapy, counseling, or professional support.
- It’s not a “good/bad person” rating. It’s a snapshot — like a weather report.
Think of your score as a dashboard light: it helps you notice patterns sooner, so you can adjust before you burn out. If your score is low, that’s not a failure — it’s information.
🧮 Formula
How the Emotional Balance Score is calculated
Each slider uses a 1–10 scale. Higher is better for most factors, except stress where higher means more stress. We reverse-score stress so that the final number always works the same way: higher score = more balance.
Step 1 — Convert sliders to 0–100 sub-scores
- Mood, Sleep, Focus, Coping, Connection: subScore = (value − 1) ÷ 9 × 100
- Stress (reverse): stressSub = (10 − value) ÷ 9 × 100
Step 2 — Apply a weighting mode
- Balanced (default): all factors weighted equally.
- Resilience‑first: Coping and Connection get extra weight.
- Energy‑first: Sleep and Focus get extra weight.
Step 3 — Add a small consistency bonus
If your factors are relatively even (no extreme highs and lows), you get a small bonus. Emotional balance isn’t just having one strong area — it’s having fewer weak links. This bonus is capped.
Final score (simplified)
- Weighted average of sub-scores + consistency bonus
- Clamped to 0–100 and rounded

🧠 How to use it
How this calculator helps in real life
- Weekly check-in: take it once a week and save results to spot patterns.
- Find the lever: fix the lowest sub-score first (sleep, stress, coping, connection).
- Stay kind: low score = signal to care for yourself, not self-judgment.
- Share wisely: share the summary with a partner/friend if it helps communication.
