Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, and systems for non-linear breathing entrainment. According to an aspect, a final breathing period is selected, and a current breathing period of a user is measured. A guiding stimulus configured to alter the current breathing period towards the final breathing period over an interval of time at a non-linear prescribed rate is output. A difference between the current breathing period and a target breathing period along the non-linear linear prescribed rate is determined. Based at least in part on the difference, the guiding stimulus and/or the non-linear prescribed rate are adjusted. The guiding stimulus and the non-linear prescribed rate may be stabilized, increased, or decreased to enable the user to reach the final breathing period.

Logic for modulating entrainment sequence with biofeedback

Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, and systems for non-linear breathing entrainment. As described herein, 'breathing entrainment' refers to guiding a user's breath or breathing. According to an aspect, an initial breathing period and a final breathing period are selected. Based on the initial and final breathing periods, a non-linear breath rate per minute sequence is determined. A guiding stimulus is output and aligned with the non-linear breath rate per minute sequence. The guiding stimulus is non-linearly altered with the non-linear breath rate per minute sequence to align with the final breathing period over an interval of time. The non-linear alterations of the guiding stimulus vary based on an amount of time the guiding stimulus has been output.
