Official title
BreatheWell: Does Breathing Resistance Training Relax the Body and Calm the Mind?
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this study is to determine whether tasks related to breathing training (daily inspiratory muscle training (IMT) and increased access to health data/awareness) performed for 12 weeks leads to positive changes in mental and physical states, and if these changes are sustained three months later. The study will assess whether IMT, compared to a sham IMT and the control group, improves psychological well-being, body awareness, and physical relaxation. Although there is evidence that all three interventions make a difference, the extent of their impact is yet to be determined, so the study aims to compare the effectiveness of the interventions, aiming to determine which may be most beneficial. The main questions the study aims to answer are: * Do tasks related to breathing training (high resistance IMT, low resistance IMT, or access to health data) performed over 12 weeks enhance mental and physical well-being? * Are the changes in mental and physical states sustained three months post-intervention? * Is IMT more effective than sham IMT or simple health data engagement in improving well-being? * Who benefits from each intervention? Participants will be randomly assigned to three groups: * IMT: Daily inspiratory muscle training at a moderate to high resistance. * Sham IMT: Daily inspiratory muscle training at a low resistance. * Control: Participants will track their health data but not engage in IMT. Participants will: * Engage in daily IMT or sham IMT training for 12 weeks. * Engage with the Oura ring and app by checking in daily to sync the ring's data and review personal health insights. * Complete daily and weekly surveys tracking mental and physical health. * Have biometric data collected at baseline, post-intervention (12 weeks), and at a 3-month follow-up.
