Eirene
Read full descriptionHide full description
I made this breath work app to memorialize my mother, Eirene — named after the Greek goddess of peace. The fundamental sessions in this app will always be completely zero-cost, ad-free, function without any need to create any accounts, and will never track or sell people's information in any way. Because I hate all that stuff. Guided tummo breath work exercises for beginner, intermediate, and advanced practitioners. Open the app, pick one, go. On-screen animation with optional haptic cues that guide each breath, so you can practice with your eyes open or closed. It features a pre-session safety guide that precedes each session to remind folks about practicing safely.

Arnasea is a daily breathwork practice — no gamification, no noise, no distraction. A dark, deliberate interface, a blob that breathes with you, and techniques chosen for their real-world effectiveness. Nothing else. — THE TECHNIQUES — • Heart Coherence (5 min) — the 5-5 breath, research-backed for calming the nervous system. • 4-7-8 — Dr. Andrew Weil's technique for falling asleep. • Box Breathing — used by Navy SEALs to stay grounded under pressure. • Tummo — the Tibetan inner-fire breath, with three progressive levels (Pro). • Custom techniques — design your own rhythm (Pro). — THE EXPERIENCE — • An animated blob that follows your breath, phase by phase. • Subtle haptics on transitions (toggleable). • Optional natural breath sounds and a soft phase bell. • Dark mode exclusively — built for evening sessions. • No ads. No behavioral tracking. — YOUR HISTORY — • A contribution-graph-style heatmap to visualise your consistency. • Clear stats: streak, total sessions, cumulative time. • Detailed calendar view (Pro). — GENTLE REMINDERS — One reminder a day, at your chosen time. With a "Skip on practice days" option — so you're never guilt-tripped when you've already breathed. — ARNASEA PRO — The Pro subscription unlocks: • Tummo Intermediate and Advanced levels • Unlimited custom techniques • Calendar history view • Direct support for the app's development Monthly or yearly, 7-day free trial.
