Breathe XR

BreatheXR is an immersive application designed to help users practice mindful breathing in a series of soothing virtual environments.

In sessions both timed and untimed, users can choose from one of three classic inhale-hold-exhale-hold breathing rhythms (4-7-8, 4-4-4-4, and 3-1-6), which conform to established therapeutic breathing patterns. Additionally, users can select a "Deep Inspiration Breath Hold" exercise, which trains users to hold their breath for upwards of 20 seconds at a time.

These exercises may be performed in a variety of virtual environments, each of which dynamically breathes in and out to help guide the user through their exercise:

Orb - A low-stimulation void with a pulsing sphere. Beach - A gentle seaside shoreline with gently lapping waves. Windmills - A grassy hilltop with drifting clouds and rotating turbines. Garden - Light rainfall falls on a koi pond in a nighttime scene. UFO - A goofy alien sit on a desert tower as tumbleweeds drift back and forth. Lakehouse - The sun rises and falls behind a forest lake. Tiki - A Polynesian idol guides the user's exercise while ukuleles strum. Snow Monkeys - In an outdoor Himalayan hot tub, sedated simians relax.

With BreatheXR, users can dedicate a moment to relax, reset and recover.
