About this app

8Breath is your app for breathing exercises, meditation, and nervous system regulation. With guided breathing exercises, meditations, and specific somatic (nervous system) exercises, you'll learn to better regulate your nervous system, reduce stress, and find inner balance—in everyday life, when falling asleep, or during acute moments of stress and anxiety.

Currently, over 150 German-speaking breath coaches, meditation teachers, yoga instructors, and somatic therapists share their exercises in over 800 audio sessions within the app, helping you find greater inner peace and relax your nervous system. You'll also find over 20 customizable, free breathing exercises in the app.

BREATHING EXERCISES FOR IMMEDIATE RELIEF
Breathing exercises have a direct effect on your nervous system and calm you quickly and scientifically in moments of acute stress and anxiety. Breathwork is the fastest tool you have to instantly reconnect with yourself. In the app, you'll find techniques like box breathing, the 4-7-8 breathing pattern, and the physiological sigh to help you relax in just a few minutes. You'll also find energizing breathing exercises to give you a boost, for example, in the morning. Each breathing exercise can be customized for free: the duration of the inhalation and exhalation phases, pauses, voice, sound, and animation. This way, you can create the perfect breathing exercise for you.

MEDITATION FOR BETTER SLEEP AND A CALM NERVOUS SYSTEM
Over 200 guided meditations help you sleep better, relax more deeply, increase your awareness of the good things in life, and promote greater mindfulness and emotional balance in your daily life.

The app also includes special exercises like Yoga Nidra, Body Scan, and guided imagery journeys to lead you into even deeper relaxation. Thanks to helpful filters and categories, you can quickly find what you need: for anxiety, stress, falling asleep, or for more focus and clarity.

REGULATING THE NERVOUS SYSTEM AND VAGUS NERVE
Your vagus nerve is the most important nerve for relaxation. When it's activated, your nervous system switches from stress mode to rest mode. Special nervous system exercises, also called somatic exercises, release pent-up tension in the body and actively regulate your autonomic nervous system. This helps with stress, anxiety, inner restlessness, and after stressful situations. The goal of 8Breath is a holistic training program for your nervous system that you can do daily.

SOMATIC EXERCISES FOR YOUR BODY
Somatic exercises are gentle, mindful movements that help strengthen your connection to your own body and regulate your nervous system during times of stress or tension. Because stress isn't just in your mind, it's also in your body. The exercises work through movement, touch, and perception. They are simple, require no prior knowledge, and are effective even if meditation is currently too difficult for you.

SLEEP AND FALLING ASLEEP
If you can't switch off in the evening, it's rarely just your head. A sleep meditation and calming breathing exercises help your nervous system relax, making sleep possible. You'll also find sleep stories, guided imagery, and soothing sounds for the night. Even if you wake up during the night and can't fall back asleep, you'll find something here to help you drift back to sleep.

THE RIGHT CONTENT FOR EVERY SITUATION
Whether you want to sleep better, reduce stress, alleviate anxiety, or something else entirely, the app lets you choose your goal and provides suitable breathing exercises, meditations, somatic exercises, and courses to help you reach it faster.
