case_images: The exercises take place in a virtual natural environment based on 360-degree still videos of a natural Finnish landscape (Figure 1).
case_images: The HRV tracking during the first deep breathing session. The virtual reality headset was worn at timepoint 1. The exercise started at 2 and ended at 4. The venipuncture was performed at 3. The increased HRV can be seen during the first half of the exercise (from 2 to 3). The heart rate level elevated and HRV narrowed temporarily during the venipuncture but reverted immediately to the prior level after the procedure was finished.

case_images: The response to the deep breathing exercise was monitored using a heart rate sensor belt measuring alterations in heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) (Figure 2).
