Humans are neither machines nor robots. Some of our automatic functions can be difficult (if not impossible) to control. Is this true? Really? How about training our body to react differently by monitoring some parameters through biofeedback?
How Biofeedback Works: A Little Introduction
Imagine that you are sitting in front of a regular looking computer except for a few wires and sensors connecting it to you. This computer and its sensors have the capability to measure several physiological activities such as breathing, heart rate, sweat level, skin temperature, muscle activity and brain activity.
