Exhale vs Somatic

reath Guide helps you slow down and breathe with intention. Follow a clear visual rhythm, hear optional phase cues, and layer in soft ambience when you want extra atmosphere. What you can do - Practice with presets — Start with familiar rhythms like box breathing and a relaxation-style 4‑7‑8 pattern. - Build your own pattern — Set inhale, hold, exhale, and empty phases to match your body and your day. - Optional background effects — Add gentle sounds when it helps you stay present (you control levels). - Timed or open-ended sessions — Use a timer when you have a fixed window, or breathe without a hard stop. - Dark, minimal interface — Fewer distractions so attention stays on the breath. Whether you use breathwork for calm, focus, or sleep prep, Breath Guide keeps the experience simple: one circle, your pattern, your pace.
