The Breathing Club — One deep breath at a time.
Welcome to our tribe.
We believe a deep breath at the right moment can change everything.
To join us, take the pledge:
I solemnly pledge to try my best to take at least one deep breath a day, for the rest of my life.
If this feels right, hold to join. If not, you're free to go.
Free forever. Private forever.
Our goal: one billion deep breaths a day.

Your first breath
Sit or stand somewhere comfortable. We will do three physiological sighs, about 30 seconds in all. Each one is two breaths in through the nose, the second one short, then one long, slow breath out through the mouth.
Breathe gently. If you feel dizzy, stop and breathe normally.
The breath, step by step
Motion is off on your device. Follow the words and the seconds.
- Breathe in through your nose. 3 seconds.
- Without breathing out, sip in a second, shorter breath. 1 second.
- Breathe out slowly through your mouth. 6 seconds.
