Reflect on what's working

Three steps.
One minute.

No setup. No meditation streak to protect. Just open the app, tell it what you're feeling, and follow along.

Name what's heavy

Choose from five honest states — overwhelmed, anxious, distracted, overthinking, or restless. No wrong answer. Just what's closest to how you feel right now.

⟶ Takes 2 seconds

Follow the breath

Each state has its own science-backed pattern. Box breathing for overwhelm. 4-7-8 for anxiety. A moving dot for when your mind won't focus. Built for that feeling, not a generic calm.

Come back to yourself

One minute shifts your nervous system. Sessions are logged automatically. Over time, Reflect shows you your patterns — when stress peaks, what states you visit most.

⟶ Tracked automatically

Not just "breathe."
Breathe for this.

Every emotional state has its own breathing pattern, colour, animation, and soundscape. Because overwhelmed and anxious aren't the same thing.

Overwhelmed
Too much,
all at once
Everything feels urgent and you can't find where to start.
Box · 4-4-4-4 · Inhale / Hold / Exhale / Hold
Anxious
Heart won't
slow down
Racing thoughts. Physical tension. Something feels wrong.
4-7-8 · Inhale / Hold / Exhale
Distracted
Can't stay on
one thing
Your attention keeps slipping. Switching tabs, losing threads.
Coherent · 5-5 · Follow the dot
Overthinking
Mind keeps
looping
The same thought on repeat. You can't switch it off.
4-2-4-2 · Let the thoughts ripple out
Restless
Body won't
settle
Fidgety, tense, nowhere to put your energy. Can't sit still.
4-0-6 · Inhale / Exhale · Slow & steady

It actually works.
