Guided breath for stress relief, better sleep, focus and energy.
Read full description
Guided breathing exercises for stress relief, better sleep, focus and energy. Open ANIMA, pick a technique, and follow a glowing orb that paces every inhale, hold and exhale for you. No counting, no thinking — just breathe along. A few minutes is all it takes to reset.
WHY ANIMA
• Follow the orb — it grows as you breathe in, settles as you breathe out, and changes color with each phase, so you can practice with your eyes half closed.
• Optional voice guidance counts you through, completely hands-free.
• 10 breathing techniques, from a 1-minute reset to a full 60-minute session.
• Browse by goal — Calm, Focus, Energy or Sleep.
• Smart suggestions — "For you" picks techniques for your goals and the time of day.
• Easy breath holds — in Power Breath, Tummo, Morning Energizer and Kapalabhati, hold as long as feels right, then double-tap the orb to release.
• Gentle reminders on the days you choose.
• Start hands-free — long-press the ANIMA icon or ask Google Assistant.
• Saves your sessions to Health Connect as mindfulness minutes (optional).
