History

2012: The Biofeedback Era

The origins of the sport lie not in monasteries, but in performance labs. Early experiments with rudimentary consumer EEG headsets allowed biohackers to gamify relaxation, turning internal states into screen-based objectives.

2018: The Geneva Standardization

Before 2018, rules were fragmented. The Geneva Standardization established the core metrics we use today: strict hardware requirements, the banning of subjective judge assessments regarding posture, and the formalization of the HRV/Theta scoring matrix.

2022: The First World Cup

The inaugural WMC finals were held in Tokyo. It proved that extreme autonomic regulation could be an arena spectator sport, as audiences watched real-time biometric telemetry on jumbotrons while athletes attempted to maintain absolute stillness amidst 110dB stadium noise.
