How to Build Your Aura Future Self in 5 Simple Steps

To begin building your future self profile, unlock your mobile device and open the Aura application. Once the main dashboard loads, look at the bottom navigation bar and tap on the 'Growth' or 'Profile' tab depending on your current app version. Scroll down until you spot the distinct banner labeled 'Future Self'. Tapping this banner immediately transitions your screen to the feature's landing page. Here, the interface displays a brief summary of what the exercise entails, accompanied by a primary call-to-action button reading 'Start Exercise'. Pressing this button initiates the interactive sequence, taking you past the generic home menu and directly into the first configuration stage where your personal data input begins.

After launching the exercise, the screen shifts to display a multi-choice interface asking you to select your primary life pillars. The interface presents distinct interactive tiles representing physical health, emotional balance, career focus, and interpersonal relationships. You are required to tap and select up to three core pillars that matter most to your current life phase. Once you make your selections, a 'Continue' button activates at the bottom of the display. Tapping this takes you to a text-input screen where the app prompts you to write a single sentence describing your ideal state for each chosen pillar in one year. This step forces you to move away from abstract wishes and articulate concrete behavioral targets that the app will use to tailor your subsequent daily recommendations.

With your core pillars and textual targets submitted, the application processes your inputs and transitions to a loading animation screen. During this phase, the interface displays a dynamic progress bar accompanied by randomized motivational prompts. Once processing finishes, the screen reveals your synthesized Future Self dashboard. This central hub features a synthesized textual summary of your inputs arranged into an easy-to-read profile card. At this stage, you can review how the app translates your text descriptions into structured wellness categories. If any target feels inaccurate, an edit icon positioned in the top right corner of the profile card allows you to jump backward, modify your text inputs, and regenerate the summary instantly without losing your place in the workflow.

Having established your profile summary, the next screen prompts you to link your future self vision to immediate daily micro-actions. The interface presents a curated list of suggested 5-minute habits, such as a brief morning breathing exercise, a midday physical stretch, or an evening reflection prompt. You must scroll through the list and check the boxes next to at least two micro-actions that fit your daily schedule. Below the checklist, a frequency selector lets you choose how often you want reminders pushed to your device notification center. Tapping 'Save Routine' locks these choices into your active schedule, ensuring your long-term vision directly dictates your short-term notification triggers inside the Aura ecosystem.

Once your routine is saved, the app returns you to your main profile hub, but the interface now features a permanent widget dedicated to your Future Self. Whenever you open the app, tapping this widget pulls up a persistent progress view showing your active pillars, selected micro-actions, and a streak counter indicating consecutive days you have engaged with your tailored content. To update your profile as your life changes, simply tap the gear icon within this widget to reopen the editing menu. This structural loop ensures that your mental and physical wellness tracking evolves continuously alongside your personal milestones, keeping the application relevant to your current daily reality without requiring a complete system restart.
