Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, and systems for dynamically adjusting a breathing entrainment based on whether a user is stressing or relaxing. According to an aspect, a first target breathing period is selected, and a guiding stimulus configured to alter a current breathing period of the user towards the first target breathing period over an interval of time is output. One or more relaxation biometrics are measured and analyzed to determine whether the user is stressing or relaxing. Based on whether the user is relaxing or stressing, at least one of the guided stimulus and the first target breathing period are adjusted, where the first target breathing period is adjusted to a second target breathing period different from the first target breathing period. By making adjustments based on whether a user is relaxing or stressing, the breathing entrainment is more effective and comfortable for users.

A bed covering system adapted to be used by a user to stay comfortable during sleep. The bed covering system includes a blanket and a pillowcase. The blanket has different heat retention zones of at least one section of heavy material and at least one section of lighter material. The heavy material is of material that retains body heat of the user. The lighter material is of a material that allows the escape of body heat of the user and allows circulation of body heat of the user. The heavy material has a higher weave count to trap and retain heat, and the lighter material is of thinner materials that permits more evaporation from a body of a user than the heavy material.

Described herein are tetherless, forehead-mounted temperature regulation apparatuses configured to enhance sleep.

Configurations are disclosed for a health system to be used in various healthcare applications, e.g., for patient diagnostics, monitoring, and/or therapy. The health system may comprise a light generation module to transmit light or an image to a user, one or more sensors to detect a physiological parameter of the user's body, including their eyes, and processing circuitry to analyze an input received in response to the presented images to determine one or more health conditions or defects.

A method is for dynamically adjusting a circadian rhythm of an observer via a user device that includes control circuitry and an associated memory. The method includes accessing a calendar, identifying future events to precondition for and determining a preconditioning schedule for at least one of the identified future events. Determining the schedule includes identifying a circadian shift needed for the at least one identified future event, determining a magnitude of the circadian shift, determining a timeframe for preconditioning, determining a magnitude of a per-day shift based upon the timeframe, and determining if the per-day shift exceeds a maximum allowed per-day shift. Also, the method includes, upon a determination that the per-day shift exceeds the maximum allowed per-day shift, setting the preconditioning schedule responsive to the determination, establishing communication between the control circuitry and a light source, and operating the light source to emit light based upon the preconditioning schedule.

The present invention relates to a combined warmer and seat fumigator using bioceramics and, more specifically, to a combined warmer and seat fumigator using bioceramics, the combined warmer and seat fumigator being capable of carrying out both thermotherapy and fumigation therapy, having excellent heat insulation, ultralight weight, nonflammability, low gas toxicity, thermal conductivity and deodorizability, and having immune function improvement and inflammation alleviation efficacy through far infrared ray emissivity, radiant energy, anion generation and antibacterial ability.

A stimulation application apparatus includes a substrate, a stimulation application member provided on one surface of the substrate to apply a stimulation to a site, and a stimulation imposition layer provided on another surface of the substrate opposed to the first surface to impose the stimulation. The site includes at least one area selected from a group of (F) site that intersects the perpendicular line of the medial malleolus on an extension line of the medial margin on os metatarsale primam 1 and 2 in foot sole, and (L) incisurasive foramen supraorbitalis site, and (K) site where the lintersection of the line connecting an augulus oculi medialis of eye and L site, and perpendicular of an augulus oculi lateralis of eye is located, and (M) site of augulus oculi lateralis located above 1 horizontal finger from center of the line where connect the inner end of left and right eyebrow.

A conditioning apparatus is provided with a control and command unit which can be activated remotely using an electronic device. A method to activate and control the conditioning apparatus includes regulating the functioning parameters of the conditioning apparatus at least as a function of a state of wakefulness or sleep of a user.

A sleep testing method, a sleep testing apparatus, a sleep-aiding device, and a sleep-aiding method are described. The sleep testing method comprises: acquiring an electroencephalogram signal of a user; processing the electroencephalogram signal to obtain energy values of the electroencephalogram signal in a plurality of set frequency bands; calculating a relative energy value of the electroencephalogram signal in the plurality of set frequency bands; and determining a sleep state, mental stress and the degree of fatigue according to the relative energy value. According to the sleep testing method, the sleep state, the mental stress, and the degree of fatigue of a user can be simultaneously determined just according to an electroencephalogram signal, and a plurality of pieces of testing data related to sleep can be obtained in a single instance of testing.

The present invention is directed to enhanced methods of treating brain disorders, and devices suitable to implement these methods. In particular, the methods of treatment and related devices of the present invention utilize the coordinated application of negative suppressive stimulation of the brain hemisphere with the more negative valence in combination with transcranially applied light energy to the lateral forehead to activate the underlying cortex of the brain hemisphere with the more positive valence, e.g., synergistically. In addition, such methods and devices may be suitable to address co-morbid brain disorders (e.g., psychiatric disorder co-morbid with depression) in a more effective manner.
