The Breathing App 4+

One of the best breathing apps

This app by far is one of the best breathing apps that I have tried. I like that the app is completely free and has no adds. I also like that this app is simple and easy to use. There is minimal settings to figure out and set. If there was one thing that I would want to change, I would change the session times. The longest you can go is 30 minutes and I would extend that to at least 1 hour. This app works by you selecting your session time and your breathing intervals. Once you selected those you are good to start your sessions.

I use this app to help me sleep at night and to center myself in the morning. This app is more suited for shorter sessions, but I use it for both short and long sessions when needed. This app has helped me be less anxious and stressed about my day. It gives me a good start and end to my day.

I think that this app is helpful for people who have stress and anxiety. By doing sessions a couple times a day, you could reduce your stress and anxiety. Also, this app helps people by giving them time to relax and to not think about their problems. I think people could start to see a difference in their stress and anxiety if they tried this app out. I also think that this app could help people who have panic attacks. If they feel a panic attack coming on they could open this app and start a session. The session then would calm them and maybe reduce the panic attack.

Breathing app review

Meditation and guided breathing apps can be helpful in moments of mild to moderate anxiety when it’s harder to hear your own inner guide. This app use methods that are helpful but,using a breathing sound, when you inhale that higher the sound gets and when you exhale the lower the sound gets. One thing that I liked was that the app also gave a visual of a ball that you follow during the practice. The visual of the ball is when the ball gets bigger you in inhale when I get smaller you exhale. These apps work by clearing your mind if someone is having trouble managing their anxiety or having a panic attack, they can use this app to calm their breathing. Also this app can be useful for someone that is having panic attacks they might be worried about having another one. These breathing apps are made to prevent you worrying about having another one and calm to relax your body.

Hey Abnormal Girly,

Thank you so much for the great review! We're happy to hear that our app is helping you to calm down, manage anxiety, better control of panic attacks. I know how it feels to have a panic attack. The breathing is the tool which always with you. In addition to breathing, you can try muscles relaxation technic https://www.healthline.com/health/anxiety-exercises#muscle-tension. And eye movements (EMDR) practice. It helps to stop 'Amygdala hijack'. The amygdala is primarily involved in the processing of emotions and memories associated with fear.
You're awesome!!!

Calm and happy breathing,

Just right

I tried 7 different apps for breathing, and this is one of the two I will keep for everyday use. It is straightforward and easy. I like the tone guidance- not jarring like a ding, not a voice repeatedly saying inhale/exhale- which is anything but relaxing. This app has the best audio option, and the best visual option for timing/guiding breaths in the least intrusive and most effective way. Some days I concentrate on yogic breaths and other days it is just regular breaths, but the guide works effectively for either. The other app I am keeping is for box breathing, which paces you to hold your breath for intervals. So if you added that kind of box or other types of hold your breath at intervals option, this excellent app would be even better. Thanks
