Biofeedback Meditation : Deep Relaxation Breathing
The best way to use the app is to use the phone while performing shavasana (corpse pose in yoga/ sleeping meditation / yoga nidra). If you wish to receive feedback while sitting, you could slide the phone halfway into your pants, so that the phone moves when you breathe. The elastic on the pant's belt line should hold the phone in place.
Set a target breathing rate that is comfortable and meditate on your breath.
Lie down on your back, place the phone on your abdomen and try to breathe at the target rate.
The waves will calm down as you start breathing at your target rate.
This app can also be used as a standalone app without biofeedback, for paced breathing, mindfulness training or sleep music

The app wouldn't open. all I got was the page telling you about it and the link to read the terms. When you go to the link it sends you back to Google play to download the app. but it is already downloaded.
It works really well for me. I am able to get into a focused and conscious state while my body gets into a relaxed state. I only wish we had a way to record karma points. For the price I paid in my local currency it is worth the money!
Not worth the price. Lowest breath rate setting =6 breaths per minute. My NORMAL rate = 5/sec. Regular meditation = 1-2/minute. Deep meditation = <1/minute. Voice very scary. Limited options. No useful feedback.
Nice idea but too fast to relax. I'd like 5 breath cycles per minute which would feel more coherent. Unfortunately the app starts at 6 breaths per minute
A cool app. Simple to understand and use with clear instructions. I used it and felt relaxed in a few minutes.
great app, very relaxing , and calming!
The voice was creepy and the ads were lying my VCD breathing was not helped at all
Great app,works aptly,and helps me relax within 10 mins
Great app. Worth paying for the upgrade.
One of the best apps on the playstore
love this app!!! Truely relaxing
Nice app. Helps me relax.
Keeps my mind on my breathing and nothing else
I have shared in my walls. You deserve more views .
A good app for focusing on breathing simple and effective. Helps in maintaining a steady pace as pre defined by the user. The free sounds provided as background sounds are very relaxing and go well with the breathing instructions.
