Resonance: Paced Breathing

Breathe at your resonance frequency.

Your heart and breath can synchronize. When they do, something measurable happens: heart rate variability (HRV) increases, your parasympathetic nervous system activates, and your body enters a genuine relaxation response. This breathing rate is called your resonance frequency, and it is unique to you.

Resonance is a science-backed breathing app that helps you find your personal frequency. When used daily, it will help increase resilience to stress, and help you bounce back from stressful moments faster.

FIND YOUR FREQUENCY

The interactive Frequency Finder guides you through a series of 2-minute breathing trials, gently adjusting the pace until you notice the "wave" sensation that signals resonance. Once found, your frequency is saved as your default practice rate, ready every time you open the app.

BUILD A DAILY PRACTICE

Daily streak tracking, a monthly calendar heatmap, and six unlockable achievement badges reward consistency. Motivational messages grow with your streak, and optional daily reminders keep your practice on schedule.

GROUNDED IN RESEARCH

Resonance is built upon 30+ years of peer-reviewed research. Studies by Lehrer and Gevirtz (2014), Fincham et al. (2023), and Shaffer and Meehan (2020), proving that paced breathing at your resonance frequency will reduce stress, and train your vagus nerve.

BEAUTIFUL, CALMING ANIMATIONS

Four handcrafted breathing animations, Circle, Liquid Fill, Floating Orb, and Expanding Rings, are available in four color palettes: Mint, Peach, Sage, and Stone. Subtle haptic pulses mark each breath transition so you can close your eyes and follow the rhythm.

COMPLETELY PRIVATE

All session data is stored locally on your device. There are no accounts, no analytics or telemetry of any kind. Your practice is yours alone.
