And by random, I mean, because of physiology, we actually start to see that you can use breathing to do the brake in and out.
So kind of like flutter the brake in and out at will.
And so resonance frequency came along when Dr. Paul Lehrer said, okay, I see that there's these fixed characteristics of this baroreflex response, of this breathing response on heart rate and respiratory sinus arrhythmia.
Let's see what happens when we introduce this as a training protocol.
And when they started to introduce this as a training protocol and they published many studies on this, they found that, well, not only are we changing someone's physiology, but people are now saying, well, I feel a lot less stressed.
I feel like I'm adapting better.
I don't feel like stress is kind of like running over me as much as I can.
I feel mood lifting.
So less of that like negative emotional valence there.
And so biofeedback has been around for quite some time.
And many companies have tried to introduce biofeedback in a way that's consumer-friendly.
But the problem is, is that there's always been so much friction to doing it.
And again, like we've been talking about it for a while, it's not an easy topic for most people to understand.
So what does it then require?
Well, you got to pay a clinician.
It's really expensive.
They got to use all of this like hardcore software and gear.
It becomes quite difficult.
So...
How can we just make this accessible to everybody?
