Slow-paced breathing reduces anxiety and enhances midfrontal alpha asymmetry, buffering responses to aversive visual stimuli

Slow-paced breathing reduces anxiety and enhances midfrontal alpha asymmetry, buffering responses to aversive visual stimuli

IntroductionSlow-paced breathing (SB) reduces anxiety, but its effects on frontal alpha asymmetry (also termed relative left frontal activity, rLFA) and the persistence of these effects after aversive stimuli remain unclear. This study investigated whether SB reduces state anxiety and enhances rLFA,...
