About
Breathbox is a breathing exercise app built around the techniques that actually work — used by Navy SEALs, backed by Stanford and Harvard research, and simple enough to use anywhere.
Choose your technique, set your time, and breathe. The animated ring guides every inhale, hold, and exhale. No narration. No clutter. Just your breath.
7 TECHNIQUES
Box Breathing — 4-4-4-4
The Navy SEAL standard. Equal counts that build focus and composure under pressure.
Triangle — 4-4-4
Three equal counts. The easiest way to start a breathing practice.
Calm Exhale — 4 in, 6 out
A longer exhale than inhale tips your body straight into rest mode.
4-7-8 — 4 in, 7 hold, 8 out
Activates the parasympathetic system. Ideal for falling asleep and easing anxiety.
Physiological Sigh — double inhale, long exhale
Stanford researchers found this is the fastest way to calm your nervous system.
Resonance — 6 in, 6 out
Breathe at 6 cycles/min to synchronize heart, lungs, and brain.
Wim Hof — fast cycles, retention
Controlled hyperventilation that raises energy and builds cold tolerance.
