Ebbly: Breathe with the Tide

jstudio

About this app

Ebbly helps you slow down with one simple picture: a round tide pool. As you breathe in, the water rises. As you breathe out, it ebbs away. Follow the water, and your breath follows it.

FOUR RHYTHMS
• Gentle (4 · 6): in for 4 seconds, out for a longer 6. A long out-breath slows you down.
• Box (4 · 4 · 4 · 4): in, hold, out and rest, four seconds each.
• Sleep (4 · 7 · 8): in for 4, hold for 7, out for 8. Slow and deep, for winding down.
• Even (5.5 · 5.5): about five breaths a minute.

ONE, THREE, FIVE OR TEN MINUTES
Pick a length and press Begin. A thin ring around the pool fills as the session goes, the seconds of each step count down in the middle, and a session always ends on an out-breath. Pause or end whenever you like.

QUIET BY DESIGN
• A soft tap at each change, so you can close your eyes (it can be turned off).
• Works fully offline.
• No account, no ads, no tracking, no data collected: nothing leaves your phone.
• In English and Hebrew.

Ebbly is not a medical tool. If you feel dizzy, go back to breathing normally.
