BENEFITS
BreathPacer is a powerful breathing guide that can help you achieve balance in your nervous system so you feel less stressed and more connected to the world. Andrew Weil, a leader in the integrative health field states, “If I had to limit my advice on healthier living to just one tip, it would be simply to learn how to breathe correctly.”
Use BreathPacer for 10-20 minutes a day and see why therapeutic breathing has been shown in research studies to be a treatment for depression, anxiety, asthma, stress, sleep, COPD, and hypertension. Paced breathing can also improve your concentration and sports performance!
BreathPacer’s unique autonomic balance setting helps you attain optimal balance in your nervous system by maximizing heart rate variability. You can customize BreathPacer to your own breathing practices, such as those used in yoga, meditation, and Qigong. Or by using specific patterns such as box breathing, 4-7-8 breathing, or others.

WARNING: If you have a medical condition that makes breathing slowly difficult, you hyperventilate easily, or if certain stimulation methods, such as sound or vibration, cause you anxiety–consult your doctor before purchasing BreathPacer. BreathPacer is a guide. It is not a medical device. You are responsible for determining whether BreathPacer is right for you. Improper breathing or use of sound and vibration cues can cause temporary dizziness or lightheadedness. If you feel any discomfort, stop using BreathPacer immediately.
