Not good business
I loved the breathwork training and loved everything about Pause until their business model turned to not helping people to help people but money. The team is not on the same page and I was told one thing from the sales person to later find it was just so I would sign up and once in the coaching program the program itself was not at all what I was told and my payment plan was not at all what the sales person told me. Lost access to the program and even if I paid I would have to pay again to do the program. So basically I am now paying for services I did not even receive.

Love, but
I’ve been using this app since it started and I love the older exercises without the breathing in the background. I may end my subscription because it is not worth it when I don’t enjoy any of the new practices.
My Daily Medicine
No matter how much time I have or what I need., I always have a powerful facilitator to guide me to EXACTLY where I need to be with potent medicine
Getting a lot out of it
I’m new to breath work, I’m getting a lot out of Pause, and would recommend it.
As a suggestion, I think the user experience would be friendlier if, after clicking in to read about an exercise, the user were returned to the part of the exercise list they had been looking at, rather than the top. Right now, while I’m exploring what’s available, being retuned to the top of the list means extra time and barrier to exploring all the experiences that are offered. (A filter for a particular type of breath may be useful as well, as I know that as I’m learning, I can tolerate longer times with some techniques over others.)
Thanks.

The perfect way to start, reset or end the day
I love this app. I use it all the time. The beats are perfect. Sam’s guidance is perfect. It always delivers exactly what I need.
Life giving
As someone who usually avoids guided meditations (I'm easily distracted by the facilitator's voice or style), I was surprised by how much I loved this app. Sam's voice is incredibly calming and her guidance strikes the perfect balance – she sets the stage without being overly directive, allowing me to connect with my own intuition. I especially appreciate how the app is organized by time and theme; I can easily find a 5-minute "energy boost" session in the morning, or a longer "releasing stress" session before bed. Pause has helped me shift my energy and feel more empowered to handle life's challenges. I initially tried the free trial and thought I could do breathwork on my own, but I quickly realized the guided sessions offer a depth and focus I couldn't achieve solo. I highly recommend giving Pause a try – you won't regret it!

BEST BREATHWORK APP!
Beautiful, easy to follow tracks that make me feel calm and alive
A beautiful morning practice ☀️
This app makes breathwork easy to implement into my day to day. It has shown me new types of breathwork and has guided me in times that I needed it the most. I absolutely love this app and reccomend it to all my friends! 🫶
Change background music
I really love this app but the background music in some of the tracks can be very distracting and overpowering. More calming music would be a lot better.
Please give us another background noise
I love Breathwork. I never got anywhere with meditation on its own. Breathwork really helps me connect to my body. It’s helps pull me out out my head and land in wherever the sensations are coming from - then I’m able to feel through whatever it is.
I only gave it 4 stars because I’m tired of the drums being the majority of the background noise. The intros are so lovely and then a lot of the times (lately) when the drums start it’s like a jerk/spasm and I’m tense again. Please, please, please!!!! Give us a bigger variety or background sounds. Something more soothing, perhaps.

Breakthrough app
Love how Pause always has the perfect practice for me to sit in my feelings and move them through the body. As a somatic practitioner, I enjoy how supportive breathwork is for me and my clients to move through resistance in life.

Good
Invaluable
After reading Samantha Skelly’s book, Hungry for Happiness, I discovered this app. I can’t tell you how life-changing it’s been to use the app as I do the journal/homework entries in the book. I have so much more peace in my life, I’m happier, and I’m on track to completing some of my other goals for the year. I do at least one of these breathwork exercises a day and the more I practice, the better it gets. A month and a half in and I can’t ever see breathwork leaving my lifestyle.

Best Breathwork App!
This is the best breathwork app I’ve ever used and I have used many. I love the layout and clear options of shorter sessions (3, 5, 10 mins) and longer sessions (25, 45 mins). I love the options for many different focuses (e.g, manifestation to clearing self-doubt) and the use of different breath techniques. I love the clarity of Sam’s voice and her intention, as well as her energy. It’s like I’m breathing in the same room with her and her healing energy is so palpable. I am grateful for such a powerful app and I refer many of my patients and clients to this app. Thank you, Sam for putting this powerful tool into the world! 🙏🏼🌍

Obsessed!
There are not enough words to explain how powerful this app, breathwork and Samantha Skelly are! I use this app (or breathe with a Pause Facilitator) every single day. It has changed and continues to change my life so much. I am grateful that I can choose the length of sessions I have time for as well as find the intention I need. This has been such a powerful tool for my own growth and has made it so I can share breathwork with those I love. Thank you Sam, thank you Pause - you are absolute MAGIC and this app is exactly what the world needs.

This app is E-VE-RY-THING
I adore this app so much. Breathwork has completely transformed my life in such a short period of time. I come to the app everyday to breathe unless I do a live session or recording with Samantha, whom I also adore. I am beyond grateful for this gift she has so graciously shared with us all. I can’t even remember what my life was like before Pause.

Save your time and money
Don’t use this app. Sam swindles people into joining her programs starting at $7,500. Her sales people lie to you about the program to get you to pay them money and then they don’t issue a refund. Look into who you are listening to before you download this.
Breathwork heals so much
I have been practicing breathwork for 7 months consistently and it has been healing my nervous system on a whole new level. I am grateful to have been guided to this app as I enjoy guided sessions and as a mom of 2 with a full life I really appreciate the shorter sessions as well as the longer when I am able to create space to really connect within.
