Abstract
A breathing device having an elongated body which may be cylindrical in shape. The body can be hollow so as to form the general shape of a tube. The tube has an opening and an exit. The user may interact with the device by placing their mouth in communication with the opening so that the user may exhale through their mouth into and through the hollow body of the device. The exit can comprise a connective part which may be configured to be coupled to one or more objects such as clothing, strings, necklaces and chains, bracelets, headbands and hair accessories, and the like.
Claims21
A breathing device in a form of jewelry consisting essentially of:
- an elongated tube having a length of 30 to 75 millimeters from a first end to a second end defining a central chamber having a uniform diameter of 3 to 6 millimeters throughout the length of the elongated tube;
- an opening on the first end of the elongated tube constructed to be inserted into a user's mouth;
- an exit on the second end of the elongated tube;
- and
- a securing structure connected to the elongated tube, the securing structure comprises a necklace or bracelet is configured to secure the elongated tube on the user as jewelry,
- wherein the length and the diameter of the elongated tube are being constructed to restrict an exhaled breath of a user to slow breathing of the user to a desired breathing rate.
A method of slowing a user's breathing rate and wearing a breathing device as jewelry comprising:
- providing the breathing device comprising an elongated tube having a length of 30 to 75 millimeters from a first end to a second end defining a central chamber having a diameter of 3 to 6 millimeters throughout the length of the elongated tube,
- an opening on the first end of the elongated tube configured to be inserted into a user's mouth,
- an exit on the second end of the elongated tube, and
- a securing structure connected to the elongated tube, wherein the length and the diameter of the elongated tube are being constructed to restrict an exhaled breath of a user to slow breathing of the user to a desired rate, and
- the securing structure comprises a necklace or bracelet configured to secure the elongated tube on the user as jewelry;
- wearing the breathing device as jewelry by the user;
- inserting the first end of the elongated tube into a user's mouth;
- and
- exhaling by the user through the opening, the central chamber and the exit by the user to slow the user's breathing rate.
