Description

The Breathing App (TBA)
is inspired by the resonance, the scientific name that describes what happens when our heart rate, heart rate variability, blood pressure, and brainwave function come into a coherent frequency. It occurs spontaneously when we breathe at a rate of five to seven breaths per minute (instead of our usual 15-18). It results in a calm, restful alertness, and many other benefits.
About Resonance
The effects of resonance support the innate ability of our body, nervous system, and emotions to restore themselves through the balancing of the complementary branches of our autonomic nervous system, which control our heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, respiration, and many other automatic functions of the body.
There have been hundreds of scientific studies performed on resonant breathing, which show a wide array of benefits, including reduction of inflammation, reduction of stress, improved sleep, improved resiliency, and strengthening of cardiovascular function.
How is it possible for one breathing technique to do so much? The answer lies within our nervous system. By breathing at resonance, we enter into an even balance between the two branches of our autonomic nervous system, the sympathetic (which moves us towards activity) and the parasympathetic, which moves us towards rest.
The sympathetic branch is our accelerator and speeds us up. The parasympathetic is our braking system, which slows us down. We alternate between these two every second of the day, with each breath we take.
However, in our fast-paced, information-heavy world, we often lean towards acceleration. Spending just a few minutes consciously breathing sends signals of balance to our brain, telling us that we are ok, and brings us out from the part of our brain that makes us feel overwhelmed, into a state of calm. With resonant breathing, you learn how to apply your brake at will, rather than being sidelined by anxiety, distractedness, or excess stress.
Our world is very much in sympathetic overdrive: we are overly active, overly plugged in, and live in a world of both heated politics and climate. It’s important to learn to cool down, so that we can be as effective in our lives as possible, and conscious breathing is one of the best ways to do that. The Breathing App, by virtue of toning the vagus nerve, reduces inflammation and induces a state of restful alertness and mental clarity.
Resonant breathing is like a stress reset button.

The Breathing App Reviews

Just what I needed

A no frills app but beautifully designed and works wonderfully. Simple to use for resonant/coherent breathing exercises which is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you Eddie Stern!

Review 04/17/2024

I tried this app called “The Breathing App.” This creates a visual, so you know when to breathe in and out. You can adjust the time that you want to inhale and exhale. There is either a ball in the middle that gets bigger when you are breathing, or you can choose a star night background. This keeps your mind focused on just breathing. There is also calming music and when the pitch is lower you breathe in. When the pitch gets lower that’s your indications to exhale. I feel like this app is very good at keeping your focus on your breathing. I do wish there were more setting for background changes and maybe the sound vibrating going through the phone. Other than that, I think that this app is a great tool. This app relates to my psychology class because this can be used to cope with anxiety or anger issues. This app is useful with calming someone down and taking a step back before acting out. This can rebalance your mood and then make decisions with a clear head.

No pause

There is no pause between the inhale and exhale. Other then that, it’s very helpful to some and simple to use.

Best breathing app

I absolutely love this app. It’s amazing and it’s free. It’s so simple to use and I love that while it gives you some options to personalize, there are not so many as to be overwhelming. I use it a few minutes before bed and I’m out like a light. I’ve recommended it to so many people!

Thank you

This is such a beautiful app. I was looking for an app for my teenage daughter. Once in a while she has migraines and I used this to help her pray and focus on something other than the pain. I plan for her to use it nightly as she prays and decompresses from her day. Thank you for this app and for making it free.

i am so grateful that this app exists

thank you so much for developing this app, it helped me so much. i love minimalistic and yet calming design of it, i can’t believe it’s free and no ads, it’s perfect. <3

Very beneficial

I just used this app for the first time and was able to enter such a relaxed state within minutes that I had to write a review. This may only be my second ever review but the fact that this is a free app with no ads is worth me doing so. It’s simple and does exactly what it says. Resonant breathing is something I’ve used in the past but this gives a more consistent way of measuring the breathe than how I use to do it. Very happy and will be using this daily. Thank you!

A Gem of a Tool! Simple and effective

Thank you Eddie for making this tool available! I’ve recommended it to many. I use this simple app to tune into my breath and also to facilitate adult and kids yoga classes. Thank you Eddie for responding quickly when I reported an issue in the app. This small team takes pride in their product and believes whole heartedly in the profound power of the breath. Thank you for sharing your gifts with the world.
