EMO: A digital platform for emotional self awareness.

EMO is a digital platform, to enhance the physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing of the users, aiming at reducing anxiety and stress during working hours or studying. Stress can lead to burnout which for college students and professionals working from home can be described by emotional exhaustion, depersonalisation, and a sense of low personal accomplishment. This leads to decreased effectiveness at work thus reducing our productivity. Taking a moment to recognise our feelings and being aware of our own emotions is very important to mental health, as emotions tell us about how we deal with things that are happening around us. Identifying negative emotions can help us to take the necessary steps to avoid getting worse and learning how to cope with difficult situations.Recognising stress is the first step to learn how to cope with difficult situations. EMO help users to be aware of their own emotions anytime, anywhere, just by one click on their mobile application. Being aware of our own emotions will assist us in properly understanding our thoughts, allowing us to make more informed decisions, avoid or resolve conflicts more easily, and work beyond intense emotions.
