Traditional breath-centered contemplative practices have been shown to enhance stress resilience through autonomic and cortical mechanisms by increasing parasympathetic tone and modulating neural activity. In this single-session observational case study, we investigated the acute effects of Bön Tsa Lung, a Tibetan breathwork practice, using multimodal recordings; electrocardiography (ECG) and...
The therapeutic potential of psychedelic substances faces limitations due to safety and legal concerns. This study explores a non-pharmacological alternative using a brain-computer interface (BCI) within a Virtual Reality (VR) environment to modulate Default Mode Network (DMN) activity, specifically targeting the Posterior Cingulate Cortex (PCC). We present an offline validation of an EEG...
