An apparatus and method for perceiving a physical and emotional state, which allows easy attachment to and detachment from a human body, and through which a bio-signal is simply detected, are provided. The apparatus includes a bio-signal detection part attached to a predetermined portion of a body for performing analog signal processing on at least one bio-signal detected from the body and outputting the processed bio-signal, and a bio-signal recognizing part for performing digital signal processing on the processed bio-signal received from the bio-signal detection part, perceiving the physical and emotional state from the result of the digital signal processing, and representing the physical and emotional state. Accordingly, the apparatus can be conveniently attached to a predetermined portion of a user's body, a bio-signal transmitted wirelessly or through a wire can be easily detected, a physical and emotional state which is perceived based on the detected bio-signal can be reported to the user, and a rapidly changing emotional state or an emotional state which remains for a long time can be perceived in real time.
