Bio-feedback meditation devices

[Deleted User]

I've been thinking of buying a bio-feedback device called "Muse". Its supposed to measure your brain signals while you meditate to give you immediate feedback to help you progress more quickly. Quoting Rick Hanson in his book Buddha's Brain "people are now learning meditative practices to become more productive, pay better attention, heal faster and feel less stressed". I've read good things about a similar device in this article. Both of these sources I consider highly reliable.

The problem is it costs a total of $439 AUD including shipping. For something that will improve the quality of my daily life I'm considering putting the money down. I can afford it, but its a whole lot of money. Do you guys think its worth it?

This is the device I'm looking at

Honestly it looks bullshit. Do it the good old way with silence and peace
