• Breathwork shows promise in reducing stress, anxiety and depression, according to a new meta-analysis

  What does this mean for apps/tools for breathwork, eg. Flowborne (non-profit)? Source: about 1 year ago

• Would anyone be interested in a VR game thats is meant for designated therapy?

  During our PhD in psychology, a colleague and I created Flowborne. Not exactly therapy, but a biofeedback-enabled breathing meditation. But as another poster said, it's hard to reach the audience, particularly without a large marketing budget... Source: over 1 year ago

• LPT: Breathing technique is one of the most underrated (and free) well-being hacks available.

• LPT: If you can't afford to pay for mindfulness apps like Headspace or Calm, you can find *free*, evidence-based mental health and mindfulness apps that were developed by researchers at the US Department of Veterans Affairs for use by civilians and veterans alike.

As for credibility in both areas, check citations to his works - books (philosophy) as well as scientific papers (neuroscience). Source: about 1 year ago

• Need Help

  It's cliche, but try to take it one day at a time, one step at a time. meditation has helped me out a lot over the years... If you want to at least give it a shot, you can do a free 30-day trial at wakingup.com. I've made it part of my morning routine and, though it's not a cure-all, it really can get you in the right headspace to start your day with a little less stress. Source: over 1 year ago

• What is mindfulness/meditation in a nutshell, what is it, what do you do?

  I use the Waking Up app. There are a number of free lessons available in the app. Try them. This is my "top tip". Source: over 1 year ago
