Simply feedback of information to you about your own internal biological activity. You then use that information to learn self regulation. You can't learn a skill without feedback of your performance. Biofeedback gives you information of functions you're usually unaware of -- muscle activity, breathing, heart rate, sweating, skin temperature, brain waves, etc. -- allowing you to regulate them.

Dr. Robert Stewart reviewed this

46 year experience in Clinical Psychology

How long it usually lasts:

Chronic (lasts years to lifelong)
