Safety: stay gentle. Stop if you feel dizzy, panicky, numb, or uncomfortable. This app is not medical care.

Why use breathwork?

Breathing is one of the few body rhythms you can consciously influence. Slow, steady breathing can help many people pause, reduce tension, and create a more deliberate response.

How to choose

For stress, try longer exhales. For focus, try box breathing. For sleep, try 4-7-8 or coherent breathing. For beginners, start with belly breathing.

Design principle

The best breathing tool should work in ten seconds, support low vision and reduced motion, avoid exaggerated claims, and never require an account to calm down.
