Healthy Habits
Healthy Habits is a Fabric optimization mod that reminds players to stretch, eat, drink and rest during long sessions.
What it does
Players set timers for wellness reminders and for breaks, and the mod reminds them to stretch, eat, drink and look away from the screen. A wellness break can temporarily force the player out of the game, and the auto-quit option closes the game after a chosen time. Positive affirmations appear as messages, and their text can be changed through the config files. Options cover eating, hearing, hydration, sedentary time and sight.
Healthy Habits runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Its timers, messages and settings are synced from the server to the clients, and a change to timers or settings takes effect only after the player leaves and re-enters the world. The mod requires Cloth Config API, Fabric API, Mod Menu and VillagerUnknown's Platform. It is published for Fabric only, across five release versions 1.21.1 – 1.21.5, and the code is licensed under the MIT License, so it is open source.
