BreathState vs Fithacker

Three minutes. At your desk. Before the meeting, after the call, between the things. BreathState is science-backed breathwork for working life. Not meditation. Not a wellness program. A short, guided session that uses your breath to shift your nervous system out of fight-or-flight and back into focus. Why this works (and most apps don't) Every session is built on three mechanisms with decades of peer-reviewed research behind them: • Nasal breathing releases nitric oxide, which improves oxygen uptake and circulation. • A longer exhale activates your vagus nerve — the fastest route to calm your body knows. • CO₂ tolerance training restores oxygen delivery to the brain, the science behind clearer thinking under pressure. You feel the shift in the session. Heart rate drops. Shoulders drop. The noise quietens. Built for the working day • Sessions in three to five minutes — not thirty. • Guided audio that works in headphones or speakers. • Mood check-in before and after, so you can see what changed. • Streaks and patterns over time, kept private to you. Use it for • The pause before a hard conversation. • The reset after a meeting that didn't go your way. • The walk back to your desk after lunch, when you can feel the afternoon slump arriving. • The wind-down at the end of a long day, before you bring work home with you. Our story Breathstate was born from lived experience — years spent managing extreme stress in high-pressure environments where the ability to regulate under fire was the difference that mattered. We built Breathstate because that same pressure doesn't stay at the job site or the emergency scene. It follows everyone home. The fight-or-flight world isn't reserved for emergencies anymore — it's back-to-back meetings, hard conversations, deadlines, and the slow accumulation of a day that never quite lets up. You deserve a tool that works as fast as the pressure builds. That's what Breathstate is. → Learn more at breathstate.co Privacy Policy: https://breathstate.co/privacypolicy Terms of Use: https://breathstate.co/terms-of-service Support: hello@breathstate.co
