BreathLyft (https://www.breathlyft.com/) is a modular routine builder for every kind of practice. Not just a breath app β€” design step-by-step voice-guided sessions for meditation, mantra japa, yoga poses, affirmations, therapy protocols, study cycles, vocal training, sleep routines and interval workouts. Key ideas Folders β†’ Tasks β†’ Steps: Organize nested folders. Create Tasks that are Single-step (title, duration, word, repeats) or Multi-step (sequence of steps with per-step words, durations, repeats). Voice-first, hands-free: The app speaks each step so users can keep eyes closed, be in posture, or move. Flexible templates: Import default modules (Breathwork, Mantra, Yoga Flows, Focus/Pomodoro, HIIT, Vocal Exercises, Therapy Protocols). Edit and chain tasks to build full sessions. Work & study: Use BreathLyft for Pomodoro cycles, timed study drills, or rehab exercises with audible cues. Health & therapy: Clinicians/coaches can create repeatable protocols (breath rehab, CBT exercises, exposure tasks) and share templates. Personal sādhanā: Build spiritual practices β€” combine mantra counts, breath retention, and asana holds with custom spoken cues. Offline ready: Practice anywhere β€” low bandwidth, no internet required once templates are loaded. What you can do immediately Start with prebuilt modules (Beginner Breath, Ujjayi, Mantra Japa, Sunrise Yoga Flow, 25/5 Focus, Sleep Wind-down). Create a β€œTherapy Protocol” folder with multi-step CBT exercises or breathing rehab. Export/share task templates (planned future feature). BreathLyft adapts to your workflow β€” whether you want calm in 3 minutes, a 30-minute sādhanā, or a clinician-grade step protocol. Features (bullet list) Create Single & Multi-step Tasks (per-step duration, repeat, spoken cue). Nested folders for organization & progression. Voice prompts and chimes β€” hands-free execution. Prebuilt modules: Breathwork, Mantra, Yoga, Focus, Sleep, Fitness, Vocal training, Therapy. Repeat, cycle, and loop controls for each task. Minimal, distraction-free UI with dark mode. Offline first; optional cloud sync (premium).
