A breathing rhythm timer
A timer can pace a breathing rhythm so you do not have to count. This preset follows a 4-7-8 tempo — four seconds in, seven holding, eight out — for eight cycles.
It is a pacing tool only. Adjust the tempo and cycle count in the builder to whatever rhythm you prefer.
How to use it
- Breathe in during the inhale phase.
- Hold, then breathe out, following the cues.
- Repeat for the set number of cycles.
