Breathing Coach

Follow a customisable animated breathing guide to relax or focus.

A visual breathing companion

Following a breathing rhythm is easiest with a visual cue that expands and contracts, so you breathe with the animation rather than counting. This is a customisable breathing guide you can set to a pattern that suits you, whether for relaxation, focus, or winding down.

Set your pattern and breathe along with the animation.

Finding a pattern that suits you

Different breathing patterns suit different aims — longer exhales tend to be calming, balanced counts steadying, and there is no single right one, so being able to adjust the timing lets you find what feels right for you. A visual guide takes the effort out of keeping the rhythm, which matters when the whole point is to relax rather than concentrate on counting. Even a few minutes can help settle the mind, which is why brief breathing practice is a useful everyday habit. This is a general wellbeing tool, not a treatment; it can support relaxation, but it is not a substitute for professional help with anxiety or any health condition, for which a qualified professional is the right support.
