For some reason, I find this GIF really relaxing. I have it bookmarked and match my breathing to it every once in awhile https://i.imgur.com/Huou7Gh.gif


That gif is about 20% faster than how I normally breathe. It stressed me out :)


I made this a while back: https://demos.samgentle.com/breather/

It's a 4-2-6 breathing pattern, but it's a single html file, so should be pretty easy to save and customise if you want something different.


No pausing on the end of the exhalation? Pausing there is the most relaxing part of breathing, IMO.


Oh interesting, the latest version of the Wim Hoff app (on Android at least) has that same type of visualization for the breathing coaching!


interesting idea but a slower gif would've been truly relaxing.
