How Anicca works

By amplifying your sense of your breathing and body, Anicca Companion enhances your ability to be calm, mindful, and efficient in your everyday life, without having to stop what you’re engaged in.

The companion uses a respiration sensor that measures when you inhale and exhale, and a tactile stimulation mechanism that works in sync with your breathing, providing haptic feedback in the form of pleasant vibrations.

In Anicca’s philosophy, the path for living with less stress and anxiety while getting the most out of life is based on cultivating an open and flexible mind, able to use the challenge at hand just like a surfer would ride a wave to shore.

We make it easier to achieve this in several ways:

  -Focus your mind in the present moment
  -Strengthen the sensation of your breathing and body – grounding effect
  -Mitigate the level of emotional pain
  -Create a pleasant sensation

In our user study, Anicca has demonstrated the ability to help people deal with stress and anxiety, focus better, sleep better, and deal with adverse situations such as social situations with charged emotions.

Listed below are a few examples of situations in which the device can be useful:

  -Thinking about or preparing for a significant event
  -During a significant event – to stay in control and balance
  -In the aftermath of a significant event – to be able to process the event more easily
  -Relaxing before or during sleep
  -Use it to deepen an existing daily or weekly practice, such as mindfulness meditation
  -When a thought, memory or emotion triggers a strong reaction, anicca can be used to balance the situation by calming the emotional and mental distress to levels that you can manage.
