Set holds to 0 to skip them.
Breathing Timer (Guided Cycles)
Follow inhale, hold, exhale, and rest phases with calm timing, presets, sound cues, and fullscreen mode.
Set the breathing phases
A preset fills the inhale, hold, exhale, and optional second-hold values. Custom lets you enter each phase directly. The timer advances through nonzero phases in order and repeats the sequence until the session ends.
Box 4-4-4-4 runs four seconds for every phase. One cycle lasts 16 seconds. A zero-second hold is skipped, so a 4-second inhale and 6-second exhale can alternate without a pause phase.
General timing only
Pause holds the current phase. Reset returns to the first configured phase. This page does not provide medical treatment or assess breathing. Stop if the pattern is uncomfortable. Screen updates and sounds can be delayed when the tab is hidden or the device sleeps.
Health and timing limits
This is a general timing and pacing tool. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or emergency guidance. Users who feel unwell should stop and seek appropriate help.
Browser scheduling, background throttling, audio settings, and device performance can affect the timing or sound of phase changes.
