## What is SOMA Breath?

A new kind of high — powered by breath.
Most people think breathing more means more oxygen. The opposite is true. Your body needs CO2 to release oxygen from your blood — and when you learn to breathe less, in rhythm, to music, something remarkable happens.
SOMA Breath was selected for peer-reviewed research at Cambridge University — the largest breathwork study ever conducted. Participants reached altered states of consciousness through breathing alone. No substances. Just breathing in beats.
And here’s the honest bit: most breathwork apps are boring. Counting breaths in silence is a chore, and chores don’t change lives. So we built breathwork around music — transmissional tracks engineered with brainwave entrainment that make your daily practice something you actually crave.
BREATHE IN BEATS
Every session syncs your breath to music designed to guide you through a complete arc: activation, peak, integration, afterglow. Bliss without crash. Energy without burnout. Intensity that stabilises into peace.
THE VIBE SELECTOR
Tell it how you want to feel and how long you’ve got. It builds your entire practice. Energy, calm, focus, sleep, release — no scrolling, no decision fatigue.
THE BREATH PHARMACY
Your body has its own inner pharmacy. SOMA Breath is the key. Precision breathing techniques matched to specific outcomes — wired at 2am, foggy before a meeting, flat before a workout. There’s a breath for that.
GLOBAL COHERENCE & THE BREATHE ROOM
Right now, someone in Bali, Berlin, and Boston are breathing at exactly the same pace. Join them. Practise live with people in 50+ countries — same rhythm, same music, same moment. It feels like belonging. Because it is.
IHT TRACKER
Think of it like intermittent fasting — but for oxygen. Controlled breath holds train your body to use oxygen more efficiently. Track your dose, watch your adaptation build week by week. This is training, not just relaxing.
MBHT — YOUR BREATH FITNESS SCORE
One honest number that tracks your transformation. No wearables needed — just you and a timer. Watch it climb.
DAILY PRACTICE BUILDER
Your complete morning ritual — movement, breathwork, integration — assembled in seconds. Fifteen minutes or a full hour. Peak in the session. Peace in your day.
HRV READINESS (optional)
Read your nervous system’s scoreboard and match the right practice to the right moment. Pair an optional pulse oximeter for deeper session insight — entirely optional, the breath works either way.
THE TRIBE
4,000+ certified instructors. 50+ countries. Live events, real teachers, a global community breathing together daily. This isn’t an app with users. It’s a movement with a soundtrack.
500+ hours of sessions. New tracks every two weeks. Every SOMA Breath technique, in your pocket.
Founded by Niraj Naik — a former pharmacist who healed himself when medicine had nothing left to offer, then spent a decade turning what he learned into a system anyone can use.
Getting high was never the problem. The question is: can you rise without wrecking yourself?

### 5/5 — Love this App

*2026-07-28*

This new upgrade is fantastic and I actually use it both on my phone and on my computer so I can always have breath work at the fingertips 

The coherence room is super cool and I love seeing who else is breathing with me

### 5/5 — Fabulous!

*2025-12-22, version 10.0.1*

Love this app and Soma breath.  Life changing breathwork with meditation and amazing music thrown in.

### 5/5 — Quick access to breath tracks

*2025-12-01*

This app is great to be able to pick up a breath session anytime and start building a daily routine. They have so many different ones that get you into the state that you're looking for and some longer courses too. Thank you Soma Breath!

### 4/5 — Pauses to load often

*2025-06-20*

I would give this app 5 stars but lately it’s been pausing to load frequently throughout the meditation even when connected to WiFi, which is frustrating.

### 1/5 — Overcharging

*2025-04-08, version 1.0.18*

They have taken a years money and now they are saying I need to pay again

### 5/5 — Love this app and the community!

*2025-02-25, version 1.0.16*

The best thing about this app is being able to take part in the weekly live sessions and be a part of the SOMA Breath community. Their instructors are amazing and I’m seriously thinking of joining the training to become one myself. Amazing app!

### 5/5 — Enjoyable and functional

*2025-01-28*

This is a great app to contribute to wellbeing. Breathwork is such an amazing practice to help us connect with ourselves and be present. We are bringing the breath of life into our body each time we breathe and bringing awareness to this can  connect us more deeply with our divine vehicles of consciousness. 

I took Niraj’s course on MindValley and really enjoyed it. I was stoked to find an app that I could access additional breathing meditations and for free. You can get more through paid, but you don’t have to in order to start investing in your health. The music Niraj creates to accompany the breathwork is amazing. 

Download it - you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by investing in your health. Peace, love, and light.
