The Flowborne VR - Biofeedback Breathing Meditation game is an interactive training environment that guides the participant through a series of breathing exercises. The app adjusts the difficulty level and pace of the workout in real time based on the participant's physiological parameters, such as breathing rhythm. Types of exercises in the game: 1. diaphragmatic breathing - the participant takes slow, controlled breaths, inhaling into the diaphragm and exhaling at a set pace. The game visualizes breathing through animations of water waves and background color changes. 2. rhythmic breathing - the participant sts his breathing rhythm to the changing visual and audio stimuli, allowing for synchronous breathing control. 3. Controlled exhalation lengthening - the participant learns the technique of slow exhalation of air to improve relaxation and reduce tension.

* Diaphragmatic breathing - the conscious engagement of the diaphragm in the inhalation process. * Controlled exhalation lengthening - a technique to lengthen the exhalation phase. * Rhythmic breathing - synchronizing breathing with a set pace to improve breath control. Structure of each session: 1. introductory phase (3 minutes) * Participants assume a comfortable sitting or lying position. * Brief instruction on proper breathing. 2. training phase (15 minutes). * Participants listen to relaxation music while focusing on the breathing techniques they learned before the session. * Breathing techniques used include those learned during the training: diaphragmatic breathing, controlled expiration lengthening, rhythmic breathing. 3 Relaxation phase (2 minutes) * Gradual exit from the training session, focusing attention on the sensations of the body and mind.
