A method is described to facilitate behavioral nudging. The method includes receiving sensory data from one or more wearable devices, determining a context for a user wearing the one or more wearable devices based on the sensory data, determining a mechanism to nudge the user to reinforce user behavior based on stored preferences and policies and transmitting a nudging stimulus to at least one of the wearable devices via the determined mechanism to provide a notification to the user.
