When the day feels busy, a short breathing break can help you slow down. This page opens the timer with Relax selected: breathe in for 4 seconds and out for 6. The longer out-breath gives an unhurried rhythm. Press Start and follow the orb for one minute or more.
If you like counting, try Box Breathing (4-4-4-4). For an even, steady rhythm, try Balance (5 in, 5 out). For winding down at night, try 4-7-8. All patterns are free and work on any device.
A simple option is to breathe in for 4 seconds and out for 6 seconds for one to five minutes. The slower out-breath gives an unhurried pace.
As often as you like. Many people take a short break between tasks, before a meeting or at the end of the workday.
