Biofeedback is the feedback from the different parts of the body. You can learn from the feedback with the use of lights or sounds detecting changes in the brain, heart, or muscles. Sending back the information so you can learn to regulate your own physiological functions, helps you to take control of the body and mind.

Biofeedback is natural and you receive it often. When doing pushups you get lightheaded telling you to stop, this is biofeedback. Your side begins to hurt when running and you slow down, this is biofeedback. 

You can learn to control parts of your body using the proper instruments and equipment that you thought were uncontrollable. You learn consciously to control your nervous system that controls your sweating, heart condition, muscle tension, and even blushing.  Balancing your body to relieve stress can be done through biofeedback. The mind will receive information on the body activities using biofeedback.
