Lotus Breath: Free Meditation

About

Guided breathing you actually enjoy listening to. A harmonic sound rises as you breathe in and falls as you breathe out, and a gentle nudge marks each turn, so your eyes can close. Tired of a voice saying "inhale" and "exhale"? You hear a sound instead, and spoken cues are there if you want them. The session keeps going with the screen off. Lotus is for falling asleep, easing anxiety, and steadying yourself before a hard moment. A few breaths, or until you drift off. 40+ patterns are built in, and you can filter them by what you need — calm, sleep, focus, or riding out a craving. The techniques people come looking for are all there: • Box breathing — 4-4-4-4, for focus under pressure • 4-7-8 breathing — for falling asleep • Coherent breathing — 5-5, six breaths a minute, for steady calm • Extended exhale and cyclic sighing — for easing anxiety • Bellows breath — fast pranayama, for energy • Your own pattern — your inhale, hold, exhale and duration Each session can count as mindful minutes in Apple Health. A streak, a Lock Screen widget, and XP are there if you want a daily habit, and easy to ignore if not. No account. The exercises are free, because calm and sleep should be available to everyone. The only purchases are optional XP boosts and streak freezes.
