Overview:

A guided breathing app, and the first tool in the greyspace regulation toolkit: small, focused apps for ADHD-friendly daily regulation. It offers five patterns, from box breathing for focus to a double-inhale reset for the moments when things get overwhelming, in sessions of three, five, or ten minutes. I choose a pattern, press start, and follow the orb as it expands and contracts, with optional sound and vibration so it works with eyes closed. There is no account, no subscription, and no streak to maintain, because a tool for calming down shouldn't add something else to keep up with.
