BreathBuddy works by entraining the breath with sounds that match the length of the inhale and exhale.  Once BreathBuddy learns your natural breathing rate and lung capacity, it coaches you through breathing sessions that gradually lengthen the exhale - the most effective way to calm the nervous system and reduce blood pressure.  BreathBuddy also helps increase the tidal volume of the lungs, a key indicator of cardiovascular health.  With a progress chart and insightful tips to breathe more fully, BreathBuddy encourages you to do breath sessions regularly to effectively eliminate stress and maximize benefits to your health.
