What kind of music does Breatheasy use?
Clearly, not just any music will do. It has to be calming and relaxing and, above all, slow tempo. It may seem obvious but studies show that slow tempo music lowers blood pressure while fast music raises it. Classical adagios and larghettos are often ideal. Breatheasy Classical is the original program with the finest masterpieces of all time. Composers include the “greats” such as Beethoven, Bach, Mozart and Brahms along with a few lesser-known surprises. These are all top notch performances recorded under license from Naxos, a leading classical music label. A second set, Breatheasy Ambient, has recently been added. This music alone will lower your blood pressure… too bad the effects won’t last without the breathing!
