BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION RECOMMENDER
First Claim
1. A method for facilitating behavior modification, the method comprising the steps of:
- monitoring a user'"'"'s physiological parameter;
monitoring a user'"'"'s context;
deriving relationships between the user'"'"'s physiological parameter and the user'"'"'s context, wherein the derivation takes place over the course of several days across several locations;
learning of changes in derived relationships over time; and
predicting either a desired or undesired physiological parameter based on the derived and learned changes in derived relationships.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for behavior modification is provided herein. During operation an apparatus (100) learns what context causes desired and undesired physiological parameters and then coaches a user to be aware of context causing undesired behavior and avoid future occurrences. The apparatus may then recommend behavior modification prior to the parameter reaching elevated status. Because an individual will be warned when situations exist that will cause an undesired physiological parameters, the apparatus will suggest to the user a method to alleviate the situation, for example, substituting an activity or context that creates desired physiological patterns. The user will then be able to take appropriate steps to alleviate the situation.
