Project Overview:
CARE COMPASS is a system of iOS widgets that transforms subtle body cues like slouching or blinking into gentle prompts for rest. Designed to combat cognitive overload, it helps professionals take mindful breaks and realign with their bodies because working smart shouldn't mean burning out.

Intent
To design a system that activates a "Micro Time Warp" using real-time body cues to prompt micro-breaks, ease cognitive overload, and support healthier work rhythms.
Guiding Questions
- What if our body could cue us when it's time to pause?
- How might we design for care, not just optimization?
- What unintended consequences must we design against?
