Abstract

The present invention relates to a system (100) for increasing a degree of relaxation of a person (10) using biofeedback. The system (100) comprises a first physiological parameter determining unit (20) for determining a first physiological parameter of the person (10), a reference parameter providing unit (60) for providing a reference parameter, a correlation determining unit (30) for determining a degree of correlation between the first physiological parameter and the reference parameter and a controller (40) for determining a control information based on the determined degree of correlation for controlling a light source unit (50), wherein in a mode of operation of the system the control information is adapted to control the light source unit (50) by dimming the light source unit and/or changing the color of the light from the light source unit to warmer color tones having a lower color temperature when the degree of correlation increases.
