Follow the orb: breathe in for five, out for five. Sound and haptics are optional, and no sign-up is needed to begin. CHOOSE YOUR MOMENT - Breathing: choose a rhythm, duration and atmosphere. Explore coherent breathing, box breathing and 4-7-8. - Tapping: follow guided points and instructions at your own pace. - Meditation: try the one-minute STOP pause or choose a longer guided session. - Evening: build a routine with narrated sleep sessions, gentle sounds and hypnosis sessions you can stop at any time. - Sound: explore ready-made soundscapes or mix rain, ocean, wind and noise textures for work or rest. - Reflection: check in with your mood and add a few words to your journal. A seven-day foundation program helps you continue after your first session. Breathing is free to start. Premium adds the extended library, custom sound creator and additional guidance tools.
