Anchored: Panic & Anxiety

Calm Anxiety: Hypnosis & Sleep

Free · In‑App Purchases

The panic-attack tool from the Calming Anxiety podcast — Instant Calm, guided breathing and sleep hypnosis, for the moment you need it most. When the panic hits — the racing heart, the tight chest, the sense that something is very wrong — you don't need an app that makes you sign up first. You need calm, now. I'm Martin Hewlett — a clinical hypnotherapist and, for over 20 years, a frontline paramedic. I've helped people through their hardest moments, first in the back of an ambulance, and now through the Calming Anxiety podcast, where a community of over 10 million has learned to breathe through the difficult nights together. I built Anchored to be your SOS button. Whether you're in the middle of a sudden panic attack, overwhelmed by anxiety or everyday worry, or struggling to quiet your mind for sleep, it puts real-world grounding tools right into your hands — the same voice thousands already reach for, ready the instant you need it. WHEN PANIC STRIKES - Instant Calm — one tap for gentle, guided audio that helps you steady yourself when a panic attack strikes. Works offline, free, no sign-up. Because no one should hit a paywall mid-panic. - Calming Breathwork — box breathing, the physiological sigh, and the 4-7-8 technique to help ease the physical stress response. - Grounding Exercises — simple techniques that help interrupt panic and bring your attention gently back to the present moment. HYPNOSIS & GUIDED TRACKS - Sleep Hypnosis — hypnotherapy-based sessions to quiet an overactive mind and ease you into deep, genuine rest. - Nervous System Reset — calming sessions to help you settle when anxiety, fear or overthinking take hold. - Guided Meditation — 10-minute sessions for anxiety, stress, and the days that just feel like too much. - Daily Affirmations — small, structured moments that build resilience, one day at a time. MADE FOR REST - Books at Bedtime — soothing, read-aloud stories by a warm fireside, written to fade you gently off to sleep. - Night Light — a soft, warm glow to keep beside you in the dark. - Offline Listening — download any session and take your calm with you, wherever you are, signal or not. - 2,300+ guided sessions for panic attacks, anxiety, stress, meditation and better sleep — always one tap away. WHY ANCHORED IS DIFFERENT No cartoon characters. No streaks to keep. No endless notifications demanding your attention. Just real, professional-grade tools — built by someone who has spent over two decades answering the call for help — and calm when you need it. Free forever — and I mean it. The panic tools and breathing exercises are always free and always unlimited. Premium adds ad-free listening, offline downloads and the full library — but the help you need in a hard moment will never sit behind a paywall. Anchored was built on one belief: find it when you need it, use it, find your calm — then go and live your life. This isn't here to keep you scrolling. It's here to help you through, and then set you free. Take a deep breath. You're anchored now. Anchored provides wellness and relaxation content and is not a medical service.
