九節佛風

Nine-Section Buddha Breath is a pure breathing exercise guide, centered on alternating nasal and transnasal breathing. It uses the sounds of traditional ritual instruments to guide you through each inhale, breath-holding, and exhale, without requiring constant screen viewing.

【Eight-Stage Complete Guidance】 A complete cycle consists of eight stages: left nostril inhale, breath-holding, right nostril exhale, breath-holding, right nostril inhale, breath-holding, left nostril exhale, breath-holding. Each stage transition is accompanied by an audio prompt, and the screen simultaneously displays the current nasal position, remaining beats, and cycle progress.

【Five Ritual Instrument Sounds】
・Wooden Fish — Short, crisp strike
・Chime — Bright, lingering metallic resonance
・Drum — Deep, warm drum sound
・Bell — Clear, high-pitched bell sound
・Gong — Deep, resonant gong sound Inhale, breath-holding, and exhale can each be assigned a different instrument. Background beat sounds can also be set individually or completely turned off, with separate volume adjustments for both.

【Three Preset Combinations, with Free Customization Available】
• Traditional Meditation: Wooden Fish + Chime

• Deep Relaxation: Drum + Gong

• Clear Focus: Bell + Chime

• Customization: Five tones to freely combine

【Adjustable Breathing Rhythm】
• 4-4-4-4 Box Rhythm

• 4-6-4-6 Deep Breath Holding

• Customizable Ratio: Inhale, breath holding, exhale, and breath holding can each be set independently; breath holding can also be skipped by setting it to zero.

The speed can be adjusted between 40 and 80 beats per minute, gradually lengthening the breath.

【Practice Based on Time or Number of Cycles】
You can set the practice time to be several minutes or the number of cycles to complete. A countdown timer is provided before starting, and the session concludes with three chime sounds, naturally bringing you back to the present moment.

【Continuous Background Playback】
After starting practice, you can turn off the screen and place your phone aside. The guided audio will continue playing; you only need to focus on your breathing.
