User reviews

Life saver

Don’t know why I didn’t find this sooner. Every other app is so difficult to set up or use when my heart is already racing. I love how I can just quickly get into a session in this app! And the guidance through the breathing I think is necessary, when I do it myself my thoughts go elsewhere. I would suggest maybe some sort of a lock screen widget thing to get into the app quicker, would be a game changer at least for me.
