Abstract

See full text

A method and corresponding system for providing breathing cues includes monitoring respiration of a user and determining a user breathing frequency including an inspiration portion and an expiration portion of the breathing, supplying a high positive air pressure to the user during the inspiration portion and a low positive air pressure during the expiration portion in substantial synchronicity with the user's respiration, comparing the user breathing frequency with a target breathing frequency, and when the user breathing frequency is greater than the target breathing frequency, increasing, in a predetermined manner, a time over which the high positive air pressure is supplied to the user, and adjusting a time over which the low positive pressure air pressure is supplied to the user.
