of subtle neuro physiological consequences resulting from sympathetic predominance potentially including headaches anxiety sleep disorders allergies and other maladies that have yet to be attributed to this condition thus leading to a general improvement in health well being and homeostasis it accomplishes this by systematically reducing the breathing frequency with consequent increases in breathing depth the ultimate goal being the realization and ongoing maintenance of 1 complete breathing cycle in 11 76 seconds or 5 complete breathing cycles in 58 8 seconds the result being improved health well being and homeostasis application_number US 93263604 A description the present invention provides a method and system by which u201c breathing therapy u201d may be optimally applied to a conscious recipient or recipients by facilitating the slowing of the recipients resting breathing rate to the ultimate rhythm of 1 cycle in 11 76 seconds inhalation persisting for 5 88 seconds and exhalation persisting for 5 88 seconds additionally several sub methods and sub systems are defined providing alternative means of presenting the recipient with breathing cues and for monitoring the breathing rate of the recipient in both stationary and mobile normal walk of life settings the care recipient is presented an audio visual or audio visual representation of the objective breathing cycle with a gradually increasing interval decreasing frequency to which the recipient consciously synchronizes their breathing cycle in this way a person suffering from chronic sympathetic predominance might start out with.
