Energy Hearts (SoM)

----
You start the game with 5 Energy Hearts. These hearts are the equivalent of power berries from previous Harvest Moon games. The maximum is 8 Energy Hearts.
==Gain Energy Hearts==
As you progress through the game, you can gain extra hearts by completing the following.
* Reach Level 100 in the Mines. Rowan will appear and be surprised that you've made it that far and will ask you to rest for the day. Before leaving, Rowan will boost your energy level with an extra heart.
* Get Married. After you marry a bachelor(ette), the next day when you wake up Rowan asks you to go out because something has happened to the Sprite Tree. Villagers will come by and start to remember the memories of your farm. After the event, you will gain an extra heart.
* Complete the Family Bond Memory event by having the highest favorability with your family and both of your children are grown up and able to walk. Talk to your wife/husband to trigger the event. After the event, you will gain an extra heart.
==Managing Stamina==
While you are in farming mode, every task you complete will deplete your stamina (indicated by the hearts located on the upper left-hand corner of the screen). When the levels are dangerously low (i.e. half a heart left) you may end up fainting. This means losing half a day in the game, as you wake up in your bed the next day at noon with a reduced stamina meter. If your animals were out, they would be mad at you. In addition, if the player stays up past midnight they will wake up later in the day as if they passed out - this will be even more evident when the player does not go to sleep and chooses to stay up all night.
===Restoring Stamina===
To prevent that from happening, it's a good idea to have some food with you because eating helps you replenish your stamina. Keep in mind that cooked food is much more effective than raw food (i.e. apples, vegetables, etc.).
===Hot Spring===
The player is able to replenish stamina for free and at any time by submerging themselves in the hot springs on the mountainside. Their stamina will replenish at a rate of about half a heart for every five seconds.
==Stamina Meter==
The stamina meter is displayed next to the energy hearts, on the top left corner of the screen. It is displayed as a face that will change in color and shape depending on the player's stamina for that day. This meter cannot be changed in a particular day and must be reset by having a good night's sleep. It is very important because it indicates how slowly or quickly you will run out of stamina.
