EMOTIONAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Abstract:

The disclosure herein describes an emotional insight management system that provides user-configured prompts and insights to the user. In some examples, an insights application provides personalized, recurring prompts to encourage users to provide current emotional state updates to a well-being journal. The user's responses over time are aggregated within a historical trends report, which provides emotional response data over time. The insights application generates insights into potential reasons for the user's emotional states on a given day. The system analyzes the user-provided emotion response data with integrated work-related data to identify reasons for the user's mood and make recommendations for actions to be taken by users to reduce stress and improve the user's emotional well-being.
