The Science Behind CalmiGo

When we are anxious or feel stress, our sympathetic nervous system is activated, and as a result, our breathing rate increases [1] ; specifically, the duration of our exhalation becomes shorter [2] . A few symptoms caused by the high breathing rate are:

  1. Increase in the sense of threat [1]
  2. Increase in the cortical and limbic activity in our brain (which manifests as increased arousal/alertness) [1]
  3. Decrease in PCO2 level (caused by hyperventilation), which may lead to several physical symptoms, such as dizziness, shortness of breath, chest pain or discomfort, tingling in the hands or feet, accelerated heart rate, and nausea [3]
  4. The decreased PCO2 level can also lead to several cognitive symptoms, such as low concentration levels, fatigue, “unreal” feeling, fear of madness, and poor cognitive performance [4]

CalmiGo is based on a synergy of three established methods: exhalation prolongation, relaxing scents, and grounding (multi-sensory stimulation).


Exhalation Prolongation

Scientific research has shown exhalation prolongation:

  1. Decreases distress feeling [2] and induces relaxation [5,6,7]
  2. Balances the PCO2 level, which is responsible for many symptoms related to distress as detailed above
  3. Decreases the physiological symptoms of alertness [arousal] [8]

Relaxing Scents

Our sense of smell has a unique relationship with our brain’s emotional system (see box). Lavender, which is the dominant scent in the scented plate of CalmiGo, was shown to:

  1. Decrease sympathetic activity [9]
  2. Reduce physiological stress measures that indicate objective reduction of stress level [10]
  3. Elicit relaxation and increase performance [11]


CalmiGo

As seen from the above, the accumulated effect of the two methods- exhalation prolongation and relaxing scents- addresses many distress related symptoms. This helps attain calmness quickly and effectively.

The combination of these two methods together with multi-sensory stimulation in one device, which can be easily used during the moment of distress and is adaptive to the user’s performance, grants CalmiGo its uniqueness.

Very nice article!

@paapiman

I get very positive vibes when being near to a cow. 

I get a feeling the cow is understanding my thoughts.

Cows and horses are greatest animals and doing their Seva has huge spiritual benefits.

People who kill cows are bhainchod kafirs.....(not joking, I really mean they are kafirs).
