BreatheRelax makes it easy to practise slow, steady breathing — whether you want to calm down, sharpen your focus, or wind down before sleep.
Choose a breathing rhythm, pick a background video or image, and follow a moving indicator that guides your inhale and exhale. Sessions run 5 minutes by default and can be set anywhere from 1 to 30 minutes.
No account, no subscription, no ads. Everything works offline once your background is downloaded.
WHY SLOW BREATHING
Slow, paced breathing is one of the simplest ways to steady yourself. A few minutes of breathwork can ease stress and anxiety, quiet a busy mind, and help you settle before sleep. BreatheRelax gives you a calm, uncluttered space to do it, without turning meditation into another thing to manage.
