Description
AntiStress – use conscious breathing and assess your stress level
AntiStress helps you deal with everyday stress. An audio guide teaches you conscious breathing, which research has shown can reduce stress and increase your well-being. To help you begin to understand your stress levels, the app allows you to make daily notes about what saps or boosts your energy and your perceived stress level. These notes are kept in your personal diary on your smartphone.
How can listening to AntiStress help me?
When we are stressed, we automatically breathe shallower and faster. If we consciously breathe more calmly and deeper, it sends signals to the brain which reduce stress. Try to practise AntiStress every day. Using the method regularly can help to manage thoughts and feelings that might otherwise prevent you from having a sense of well-being. Give yourself time and patience. The AntiStress self-care programme is designed to prevent and reduce stress. AntiStress should be seen as a complement to other care programmes that reduce the amount of stress in your life. If you have serious stress-related problems, it is important that you contact your healthcare centre.
The AntiStress app is produced by the Research and Development Unit at Primary care Fyrbodal, Region Västra Götaland. Research in several fields of medicine have been used in its development by Tina Arvidsdotter, PhD in Health Sciences.

Ratings and Reviews
Needs work
Was looking for a breathing app to help also with stress. I found this one annoying because the long silent introduction is irritatingly long waiting for the voice to come on and actually made more stress.
I had chosen piano and wanted to change it as didn’t like it and couldn’t find a way to change this.
I think it needs more features like a visible sign of how long to breathe in and then out. Maybe a counter in one corner. I couldn’t sinc my breathing with the voice at all.
Having lived in Sweden I chose this app thinking it would be as fantastic as most good research there but really didn’t find this app attractive at all.
Just some feedback for the developers. I hope you improve and add more features.
Thanks
