Full changelog

What's new

  • Clinical literature review — 6 verified references (Bernardi 1998/2001/2002, Vaschillo 2006, Lehrer & Gevirtz 2014, Russo 2017) with science-in-brief section explaining why 6 bpm, why exhale-weighted ratios, and why the safety constraints exist.
  • Functional preset namesbalanced (equal ratio), calm (exhale-weighted), extended (full Bernardi dose). Replaces the old time-of-day names. Time-of-day auto-select still works.
  • Resonance frequency measurement protocol — step-by-step guide for users with HRV biofeedback hardware to find their individual resonance frequency.
  • Exhale ratio safety check — exhale must not exceed twice the inhale. Extreme ratios have no clinical evidence and risk air hunger.
  • Medical disclaimer — added to --safety output and README.
  • MIT license — use, copy, modify, distribute freely.
