BEFORE SLEEP
Let the day settle.
A gentle rhythm for a quiet moment before bed. You can stop whenever you're ready.
No account. No app. Just breathe.
Silent during the exercise. Optional chime at the end.
That's it.
Take your time before carrying on.
Breathe gently and comfortably. Don't force your breath. Stop if you feel dizzy or uncomfortable.
A simple breathing timer for bedtime
This page starts with a two-minute session. Choose one, two or five minutes, then follow the circle: four seconds as it expands and six seconds as it settles. The pattern has no breath holds.
Keep the session quiet
The timer is silent by default. Leave End chime off if you do not want a sound when the exercise finishes. If you enable it, a short preview plays immediately.
Keep the page visible if you want to follow the timer. Locking your screen or switching to another app pauses the exercise; return and press Resume to continue.
Do I need to finish the timer?
No. You can pause or end at any point. If watching the screen or counting feels distracting, put the device aside and breathe in your own time. There is no score or streak to complete.
What should I expect?
This is a visual guide for a quiet break, not a promise that you will fall asleep. Follow only a rhythm that feels comfortable, and use the controls whenever you want to stop.
For a break earlier in the day
Use the one-minute breathing exercise for a short pause, or explore the four-phase box breathing timer.
