Text Box: Instructions for using the Emotions Tracker Dr Grif app Thank you for purchasing the Emotions Tracker Dr Grif app. Learning about your emotions and gaining emotional intelligence is the first step in living a happier and more content life. This app is designed to help you track your emotions and what caused them, so that the information might assist you in your efforts to control your emotions: increasing the emotions you want more of and decreasing those emotions you want less of. After you have downloaded the Emotions Tracker Dr Grif app on your smartphone or tablet, touch the three-line menu button, located at the top left of the main page, to access options and email address entries. Touch the graph button, located at the top right of the main page, to access your daily emotions data. Make sure to enter your own personal email address in the space for “email 1” so that you can receive daily and weekly summaries of the data you input into the app. This summary will include the percentage of time that you spend in each emotion, a list of the thoughts/events you entered as preceding each emotion, and the time of each entry. Should you wish to have anyone else receive this information as well, you can enter their email address(es) in the additional email spaces provided (email 2, email 3, etc.). These additional people with whom you choose to share your information will be your Emotions Tracker Partners (ETPs). Your ETPs can be anyone: your best friend, your parents, your spouse, your counselor/therapist, your professional coach, your AA sponsor, etc. You can change your ETPs at any time by changing or removing the email addresses provided. It is suggested that you keep the weekly summary data you received via email in a file on your computer, so that you can monitor your progress and compare what thoughts or events are consistently contributing to each of your emotions. Thus, you can make changes accordingly. Most people choose a goal of seeing an increase in entries for 1 (happy/funny/content), 3 (excited/looking forward to) and 6 (tender/loving/sympathetic) and seeing a decrease in all other entries. Note 10 (other) can be used to measure a craving, addiction or any other feeling that does not fit into another category. If you have several days in a row that you are extremely busy and don’t input emotional data into the Emotions Tracker Dr Grif app when prompted, the app will discontinue asking you to input emotional data. When you wish to resume entering data into your Emotions Tracker Dr Grif app, simply go to the Emotions Tracker Dr Grif app and input a manual entry. This will reactivate the app to ask you how you feel at the previously set intervals. If at any point you decide to take a break from using the Emotions Tracker Dr Grif app, make sure to remove the email addresses you entered for your ETPs so that your ETPs don’t receive emails containing no emotional data. It is suggested that you set the Emotions Tracker Dr Grif app to prompt you to input your emotions to randomly remind you ten times per day to start. If you are working with a counselor/therapist, you could ask them how often they prefer you enter your emotions. Keep in mind that you can input an entry anytime you think you have an emotion/event of significance to report, even if the app hasn’t given you a prompt. After you start to learn which of your thoughts/events are producing emotions, and you are increasing more 1, 3 and 6 entries, you can set the app to remind you five times per day at random. It is also suggested that you set a “do not disturb” time to an interval beginning at your normal bedtime and ending at your normal awake time. This will be the time period when the Emotions Tracker Dr Grif app will not ask you how you are feeling. You may email Dr. Grif at EmotionsTrackerDrGrif@drgrif.com with any questions or comments. Note if you are not being treated at Dr. Grif’s office, you are not his client and he is not your psychologist. Emotions Tracker Dr Grif is not a substitute for therapy and only provides you with a measurement device to help you and your ETP learn more about your emotions and what causes them.
