Biofeedback is a Technique used to help individuals learn to relax and gain increased control over their Heart, Breathing and other Body Functions. This is done by allowing a Person to monitor signals from his or her own body through a set of instruments, with sensors, attached to the hands, head or other parts of the body. These instruments give continuous information in the form of a metre, light or tone or computer display, on brain waves, blood pressure or muscle tension. Biofeedback is premised on the idea that people may use their minds to influence the functioning of their bodies.
Feedback of physical responses, for example, provides information to help patients recognize a relaxed state. The U.S. National Institute of Mental health, a research arm of the U.S. Department of Health and Human services, notes that research on Biofeedback has shown that it can help in the treatment of many diseases and painful Conditions. As well, the research indicates that we have more control over bodily functions than once thought possible. Biofeedback is practiced today by Professionals in many Disciplines, including psychology, medicine, nursing, and physical Therapy. Psychologists use the Technique to help Clients learn to relax, while medical Practitioners use it to help patients control high blood pressure. Biofeedback is a tool that reminds physicians that behavior, thoughts, and Feelings profoundly influence physical health. Biofeedback
"...When you want to move or want to talk, first examine your mind, and then, with firmness, act in the proper way. When you feel desire or hatred in your Mind, do not act or speak, but remain like a log ....Again and again, examine every aspect of your mental and physical activities. In brief, that is the very way of observing mindfulness".
