System and method for monitoring respiration

A system for monitoring biosignals of a user, including an attachment module configured to secure the system at an inner surface of a garment of the user; a flexible layer coupled to the attachment module, wherein the flexible layer and the attachment module cooperatively define a housing lumen; an electronics subsystem arranged within the housing lumen, the electronics subsystem including a first sensor, wherein the first sensor outputs a first signal; a respiratory sensor, wherein the respiratory sensor outputs a respiration signal, and a processing module that receives the first signal, the respiration signal, and the proximity signal, and generates a processed biometric output based on the first signal and the respiration signals.
