HeartMath - USB mood-ring Now Available for Mac

HeartMath has finally released a version of its biofeedback based stress release system for Mac. The HeartMath emWave software uses a pulse sensing ear clamp to detect changes in heart rhythms and helps you adjust your state of mind. With stress reducing games and biofeedback control targets the software claims to help you release creativity and increase energy while reducing stress and it's many nasty side effects. The company makes special note of stress-eating and has special programs targeting healthier alternatives. Emotion shaping images and sounds are combined to help channel stress into more productive energy.

While this may be wasted on the laid back population of Mac users they deserve the same rights as normal folks. The USB ear sensor can be replaced with a finger sensor if that's more your pace. There's also a portable hand held version that you can take with you while you are away from your computer. The software and sensor command a fairly hefty fee. $299 for the software and ear sensor and the other add-on software packages are similarly priced.
