## What is First Breath?

Start your day centered. Just 2 minutes.


First Breath is a mindful breathing app designed to help you begin each day calm, focused, and ready. Unlike apps that want more of your time, First Breath encourages you to breathe, then put the phone down and live your life.
4 BREATHING PATTERNS

Calm — Gentle breathing with extended exhale for relaxation
Box — Equal timing used by Navy SEALs for focus under pressure
4-7-8 — Dr. Andrew Weil's technique for deep relaxation and sleep
Energize — Quick breaths to wake up without caffeine

Each pattern includes the science behind why it works, the benefits, and when to use it.

First Breath is built on a simple philosophy: you don't need another app competing for your attention. You need 2 minutes of calm, then the rest of your day.
