State of Mind notification on Apple Watch is unnecessarily intense (alien.top)

Does anyone else feel that the haptic notification for Apple's new State of Mind tracker is far too severe for the purpose it is trying to serve? Jolting me out of whatever pleasant state I was in to ask me a set of questions seems counter to whatever mindfulness goal they claim to have.

The whole experience lowers my desire to even utilize a feature I was otherwise excited to use. A reduction in the intensity would likely produce better results? Thoughts?

The most annoying one for me is the “hey you should go to sleep soon” one. It’s obnoxious and has jarred me from actually working towards sleep the few times I’ve been in bed before it goes off. How does it not recognize when I’m working on sleeping already?!
