Breathing exercises at your own pace.
Gentle animated guides, clear cues, and no need to push. Holds are off by default.
Box breathing
Four equal phases with optional holds.
4–7–8 breathing
A longer exhale and an optional hold; use a shorter pace if needed.
Even breathing
Equal inhales and exhales with no holds.
Triangle breathing
A three-part pattern with an optional pause after the exhale.
Double-inhale sigh
Two gentle inhale cues followed by one comfortable exhale.
Gentle paced breathing
An easy visual pace with a slightly longer exhale.
Alternate-nostril guide
Optional nostril switching with an easy, hold-free pace.
Open-mouth exhale
A gentle inhale followed by an unforced open-mouth exhale.
Quiet nasal breathing
A gentle pacing guide; no air-hunger or breath-hold challenge.
Gentle breathing alternative
A hold-free alternative. This is not a Wim Hof method session.
A comfortable guide, not a challenge
Start with even breathing if you are new. Let the animation suggest a pace only while it feels comfortable. Do not force a deep inhale, a long exhale or a breath hold. Stop and breathe normally if uncomfortable or lightheaded.
Practice seated or supported in a safe place. Do not use breathing exercises while driving, in water or during activities needing full attention. Ask a qualified professional about practices appropriate to an existing health condition.
Several older Zehano links remain for continuity. Their pages clearly explain where this version offers a gentle alternative rather than teaching an intensive named method.
