About

Rumi Breathing

Features
Read full description

Most people breathe 25,000 times a day. Almost all of them wrong. Rumi Breathing is a science-based practice companion built on James Nestor's landmark research into nasal breathing, COโ‚‚ tolerance, and the lost art of breathing well. BREATHE Guided patterns โ€” Resonance, Coherent, Box, 4-7-8, and more. Breathing at 5.5 breaths per minute synchronises your heart rate variability to its resonance frequency. The effect on HRV, blood pressure, and anxiety is measurable within a single session. LEARN A science library built from Nestor's research: nitric oxide, the Bohr Effect, the Stanford experiment, and the mouth-breathing epidemic reshaping modern skulls. TRAIN Daily exercises and multi-day programs: Nose Unblocking, COโ‚‚ Tolerance, Mouth Tape, and Breath Awareness. MEASURE The BOLT Score reveals your COโ‚‚ tolerance โ€” the single most predictive measure of breathing efficiency. Track it over time. Your nose is a pharmacy. Start using it.

Log Boundaries

Log Boundaries is the gentle daily practice for chronic people-pleasers learning to say no without the guilt. If you cave in the moment and beat yourself up afterward, you don't need another lecture โ€” you need practice. Log Boundaries turns boundary-setting into a small, repeatable habit you can actually keep. SET A DAILY INTENTION Name one boundary you want to hold today. A clear, kind focus for the day ahead. LOG THE MOMENTS AS THEY HAPPEN Capture what happened, how it went, and how you felt โ€” held, caved, didn't try, or a quiet day with nothing to test. No judgment, ever. SEE YOUR BOUNDARY STRENGTH GROW A transparent Boundary Strength Index turns your logs into an honest, encouraging signal โ€” with a forgiving streak that never punishes a single off day. WEAVE THE LOOM Every boundary you hold weaves a thread into your own growing cloth โ€” a calm, hand-made picture of your progress. GENTLE REFLECTION, NOT THERAPY Guided prompts, self-compassion after a hard moment, if-then plans, and a library of real boundary scripts. WHAT'S FREE The whole daily loop is free forever โ€” intentions, logging, your Boundary Strength, the forgiving streak, boundary scripts, if-then plans, reflections, and a gentle daily reminder. LOG BOUNDARIES PRACTICE (optional subscription) Unlock the long view: your full history beyond the last 30 days, pattern insights, guilt & recovery trends, and monthly and all-time trends. - Monthly or yearly, with a 14-day free trial - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation. The subscription auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime in Settings Log Boundaries is a personal practice journal for general wellness and self-improvement. It is not therapy and gives no medical, psychological, or clinical advice.
