Braele: Box & 4-7-8 Breathing

Take a breath. Braele is a beautifully simple breathing app that helps you find calm, ease anxiety, focus, or fall asleep in a few minutes. Box breathing and the physiological sigh are free forever: no account, no sign-up, works offline. Braele has no courses and no guided meditations. It does one thing: it breathes with you. Follow the living orb as it expands and contracts, with gentle phase-synced haptics on every inhale, hold, and exhale. A calm voice (Sarah or Brian, your pick) says each cue at the moment it happens, so you can breathe with your eyes closed or the phone face down. Add optional ambient sound and pick the pattern that fits the moment. THE PATTERN LIBRARY • Box breathing (4-4-4-4): a steady, paced rhythm for focus and calm • 4-7-8 breathing: wind down and ease insomnia before sleep • Physiological sigh: two inhales and one long exhale, free whenever you need it • Coherent (5-5): also called resonance breathing, slow diaphragmatic breaths at a calm, balanced pace • Calming (4-6): a longer exhale that activates the vagus nerve to ease anxiety and stress • 7-11: seven in, eleven out, for when panic rises • Triangle: box breathing without the second hold • Energizing (2-2): a quick morning lift • Your own: build a custom pattern, second by second BREATHING FOR... • Anxiety: three sighs now, longer exhales after • Panic attacks: the fastest pattern, for when you cannot think • Anger: sixty seconds before you answer • Sleep: 4-7-8 in bed, belly breathing earlier in the evening • Relaxation: five minutes of belly breathing • Blood pressure: ten minutes of coherent breathing a day • Running: train the low breath off the run • Labor: the slow rhythm and the light one Each is a short guide in the app: what to do now, what comes next, and the daily habit. Tap one and its patterns become your home screen. Pin two to six patterns to your Home tab and tell Braele what you are here for (calm, focus, sleep, energy); it suggests the pattern for the moment.
