Swipe when you are ready for the next one. No timers, no notifications, no rush. WHAT IS INSIDE A panic button with a 10-step guided flow for the worst moments. Over 100 calming techniques in the library, rotated so it never feels repetitive. Breathing exercises and grounding methods that actually work in public, without anyone noticing. Works offline.
