## What is Exhale?

Exhale helps you breathe better. Whether you want to reduce stress, fall asleep faster, or sharpen your focus, Exhale offers science-backed breathing patterns that work in minutes.

BREATHE WITH PURPOSE

Choose from 7 expertly designed breathing patterns:

- Box Breathing: Used by Navy SEALs and first responders to stay calm under pressure. Equal inhale, hold, exhale, hold cycles build focus and composure.

- 4-7-8 Sleep: Developed by Dr. Andrew Weil, this pattern activates your parasympathetic nervous system to help you fall asleep naturally.

- Wim Hof: The famous method combining deep breathing with retention to boost energy, improve cold tolerance, and strengthen your immune response.

- Resonance Breathing: Breathe at your body's optimal frequency (~5.5 breaths/min) to maximize heart rate variability (HRV) and enter a state of coherence.

- Calm: A gentle, extended exhale pattern designed to lower your heart rate and quiet an anxious mind.

- Energize: Short, powerful breath cycles to wake you up and fuel your day without caffeine.

- Custom: Build your own pattern. Set inhale, hold, exhale, and hold durations to create something uniquely yours.
