Read what our users say: “Took a chance with this app, and I’m so glad I did! It’s honestly amazing and the best anxiety app I’ve tried. The ‘Evening Wind Down’ is the absolute best, and I love how the app has so many different tools and meditations! Highly recommend DARE!” - StacyS “This is one of the only apps I’ve continued to pay premium for. It’s truly helped me come off that ledge of anxiety and learn new coping mechanisms that therapy hadn’t even taught me. I love this app, and I love the people that run it. Thank you for what you do.” - Aschom “20 years of fighting anxiety on my own, not knowing what’s going on with me… until I got this app. It’s changed the way I fight this THING forever. Thank you for all the work you do.” - Glitchb1 “DARE is a lifesaver. I recently started using it, but it’s already helped me more than my therapist. The advice and the DARE response are great, but for me, the best are the deep relief and insomnia recordings—they help me go to sleep.” - MartinB “I was sceptical of the claim that within 3 days you’d see improvements, but I have an incredible set of tools. I can’t imagine not having this app now.” - RebeccaM Approved by ORCHA (Organisation for the Review of Care & Health Apps) As featured in The Guardian, GQ, Vice, The Irish Times, Studio 10, and more Terms of service: https://dareresponse.com/terms-of-service-statement/ Privacy policy: https://dareresponse.com/privacy-policy/

This free app will guide you to optimize your breathing pattern. Breathing short, shallow breaths creates tension in the muscles of respiration, which drives anxiety. Almost everyone breathes in this way to some extent. By training you to become comfortable breathing deeper and longer, this app will help you eliminate the tension and reduce the negative emotions it causes. Scientific studies have shown that paced breathing lowers blood pressure and heart rate and calms the mind. Research has also shown that breathing at longer intervals can improve mood, focus, and flexibility, increase athletic performance, reduce recovery time, mitigate fatigue, and help people get to sleep at night. This app is designed to help you take full advantage of those benefits. It also provides an easy-to-use interface without bloat, clutter, ads, sign-ins, in-app purchases, or full version upgrades. Read about the science of optimal breathing. Select how long you want your inhales and exhales to be. Choose the duration of the optional pauses between them. Peruse the preset breathing rates to learn about various breathing methods. Practice the Program Peace exercises to build confidence, a positive mindset, and rehabilitate systems throughout your body. Program Peace will introduce you to eight different principles of relaxed breathing and then encourage you to practice them while performing related exercises. Here are the principles: • Breathe deeply (high volume): Breathe more fully, breathing most of the way in and out in a way that pushes the belly forward during each inhalation. • Breathe longer (low frequency): Breathe at longer intervals in which each inhalation and exhalation lasts for more time. • Breathe smoothly (continuous flow): Breathe at a steady, slow, constant rate. • Breathe assertively (confident): Do not let social concerns or stressors conflict with the other rules. • Exhale passively: Allow your breathing muscles to go limp during each exhalation. • Breathe nasally: Breathe through the nose with nostrils flared. • Ocean’s Breath: Relax the back of your throat and breathe as if you are fogging up a glass. • Breathe with purity of heart: Knowing that you have only the best intentions, and that you exemplify the combination of nonsubmissive and nondominating, will infuse your breathing with peace. This app is intended to be a companion to the Program Peace book, website, and self-care system but is also a fully stand-alone product. For more information, you can visit www.programpeace.com.
