Option to turn off 'Emotionally Mindful' - or make it a trait.

Just adding: I've noticed that doing high-intensity activities like lifting weights doesn't always seem to shunt the moodlet to the back. I just loaded in and tried boxing and lifting. Fine overrode it all. 

Reporting back in: It seems that the moodlet builds even when I'm at work. So I can be in the bodybuilder profession, working hard, and suddenly controlled emotions has taken precedent over surging emotion: Ready for Action, despite the fact it has 19 hours remaining. This can't be functioning as intended, right?

Something definitely needs to be changed regarding sims gaining the "emotionally mindful" "fine" emotion.

I HATE how I can start a task while inspired (or whatever advantageous emotion I have managed), when all of a sudden my sims emotion changes to "fine" because it has the emotionally mindful boost.  Extremely counter productive, unless I spend additional time doing something to increase the boost to the point that I am able to surge an emotion.  If I am unable to trigger the option of surging an emotion then I am stuck with the unhelpful emotion of "fine", even if I would have otherwise had a helpful/desired emotion.  If I am able to surge an emotion (something that is NOT automatically available once the "fine" emotion has overridden all others) then I have to STOP ALL TASKS to then perform a surge of emotion.  This trait seriously gets under my skin and definitely takes away from my overall gameplay.

For now, I'm relying on this mod: https://modthesims.info/d/654294/less-intense-fine-buffs-for-mindfulness.html

It changes the buff values from +4 and +10 to +1 and +2, respectively. It's far more manageable, but I still think this should be a trait. 

Agreed. The moodlet seems to pop up way more often than it should. Wish there was a way to disable it completely, especially for my emotionally dampened vampire sim

What activities are you doing? I never get it unless I do the activities from the Wellness skill.

For me, after looking at the code and testing ingame, my vampire is not supposed to get the moodlet from many activities. Listening to Japanese Folk wont build it. Doing meditation does seem to. It was mostly my fireplace being set to on and autolight. It would pop up twice a day. Tested with MCCC and checking hidden buffs and playing the game, and with the fireplace off, the hidden buff nor the moodlet will be acquired.  Sorta buggy it seems

Did you file a bug report? Where is the link?

Edit on my last comment: With the fireplace off, the hidden buff and moodlet will *not be acquired so it is working properly, for non occults at least. Vampires I would need to double check the tuning and see if it blacklists Emotionally Dampened. I remember the music and some of the other files did and were working according to the tuning.

I never made a bug report. I just stopped using the fireplace. My sim doesnt actually feel the weather effects so I was just turning it on for winter roleplay ambience. I hadnt tested other fireplaces so it could just be the one I was using. Im not really sure if it is a bug, more of an oversight and forgetting to add Emotionally Dampened to the blacklist for the acquisition of the buff from certain sources. 

I don't use mods at all. The only time I used mods is when I made them myself. I think the person with the complaint uses mods. I never get the emotionally mindful Moodlet unless I have my Sim try Wellness activities. They didn't state what activities they are doing. My Sim doesn't get the Moodlet from going to work.
