The Flowtime Biosensing Meditation Headband is a groundbreaking device designed to enhance your meditation practice by providing real-time feedback on your brain activity and physiological states. Combining advanced biosensing technology with user-friendly features, this headband is a valuable tool for anyone looking to deepen their mindfulness and meditation experience. This super cool headband tracks my brainwave activity across multiple states, including Alpha, Beta, Theta, and Gamma waves. It also monitors my heart rate, heart rate variability (HRV), stress levels, and relaxation. This comprehensive feedback allows me to understand how my brain and my body respond during meditation.I also set it up so that I can receive minute-by-minute updates on my performance, helping me identify when I enter meditative state and the period in which I am most focused. This level of insight is extremely beneficial to me for tracking progress and refining my meditation techniques over time.

Its compact design makes it simple to take along anywhere, whether I am at home, traveling, or attending a meditation retreat.The headband connects seamlessly via Bluetooth to the companion app, which is available for free on both the App Store and Google Play. This connection enables easy data transfer and access to my meditation stats.Once fully charged, the headband provides about 8 hours of active meditation use.This headband is a revolutionary tool when it comes to meditation and I highly recommend it!!

A product you pay hundreds of dollars to do some tasks, but the company wants to harvest your data constantly to be able to use it. In addition, during meditation one should minimize EMF, but this devices forces user to pollute the space with extra EMF. Here are the major issues at the time of this writing:1. This device/app won't work offline at all! They want to constantly and continuously upload our private data to allow to use their app.2. If you don't have internet access for any reason, or if you want to madidate at a quiet location or park or somewhere with no internet then it cannot be used.3. If you are meditating for a long duration and lose access to internet for any reason in the middle of meditation, then it is of no use.4. Many people while meditating want to avoid having too many EMF or Radio signals and this device works in contrary: a) it needs Bluetooth to be able to connect to phone b) it further wants Wi-Fi constantly and continuously connected to internet so that it can upload the data continuously. That means it is constantly polluting the meditation space with unwanted EMF.5. Such continuous presence of unwanted EMF signals close to us during meditation can interfere with our body and brain health.So, in conclusion, for real users who want to pay attention to health and safety and personal data privacy this device is not ideal. It might be fine to use this device sparingly for short duration to learn or to gain an idea, but long-term use might not be ideal.Though everyone has their own perspectives, but for anyone who has researched enough on dangers of continuous EMF pollution, this device is not appropriate for its intended use.Now, what type of device might be ideal for this task? Ideally, the device should minimize or should have the options to minimize the EMF noise and it should be able to work fully offline with following properties:1. must be able to work completely offline.2. must be able to record the waves during meditation without requiring connection to phone/internet.3. the recorded waves then should allow to be analyzed from PC or phone at a later time.4. if it doesn't have the feature to record on its own, then it MUST provide wired connection to PC or phone to minimize the EMF noise (note that the wired connection will have significantly lower EMF pollution than wireless or Bluetooth)6. the device it pairs with such as PC/phone must not require internet connection for it to work to reduce EMF noise.7. it must not upload the private brain data to its servers unless the company wants to buy data from users with users' permission.Unfortunately, not many people are aware of the EMF pollution and its dangers or will be misled by big companies to ignore it. It also seems there is no suitable device for long duration meditations in the current market, as most of them do use wireless and Bluetooth which directly contradict the purpose of meditation (to be quiet, calm, reduce all types of noise and pollutions, and radio interferences).

The media could not be loaded. This device works great and is a value product for the needs. These are niche product for very limited customers but useful for those specific ones. Overall satisfying experience.Further comments are below:Things I like about this product:- Works great while meditation. Some sample training lessons are available for free in the app- Has multiple features tracking and are instant in real time- Lightweight and small in size hence making it a very portable option- Connection to the app was quick and easy- Has a long battery life- Very easy to use overallThings that need improvement:- Maybe the price factor and not everyone can afford itOverall take: Works very well without any problems & so would recommend these.

It’s pretty awesome. I geek out on the data and I’ve found it very helpful for improving my meditation practices- as an example I’ve found that doing vocal toning increases my coherence by like a zillion percent. It’s pretty cool and a great value. I think some things could be improved regarding insights into the data though which I’ve shared with the product team. Overall great product.
