Breathe

Breathe reminds you to breathe during your work day, and activate the parasympathetic nervous system

What is Breathe?

'Breathe' is a Chrome plugin designed to promote well-being and productivity. It prompts users to take deep, calming breaths every time a new tab is opened. This activates the parasympathetic nervous system and lowers stress and anxiety levels, leading to more focused and relaxed work sessions. It also offers a motivational quote after each breathing exercise to boost morale and productivity.

Summary

Analyze keywords

Breathe is a new tab chrome extension that instructs you on how to breathe correctly and slowly, with a very deep and thoughtful visual that gets your brain to relax in the breathing process. Every time you are about to work on something new, it will immediately remind you to take a second and breathe - lowering your cortisol levels, which in turn lowers your stress levels, heart rate, blood pressure, and anxiety.

Every time you open a new tab and start another work session, take a minute to breath five deep breaths using the guided visual experience. After finishing the short exercise you will get inspired with a random motivational quote to boost your productivity and give you a nice serotonin boost.

How is this even featured?! It doesn't even open. The name is greyed out in the Extensions list (the one next to the search/website bar) and there's no options or anything.

I think a lot of people don't understand what the extension actually does: it changes your new tab page into an animated circle, with text guiding you through the breathing exercise and finishing with a random quote - every time you open a new tab, it will start the breathing exercise. The extension button has no features, other than an option that brings you back to this page. I like the extension and what it does, but I've knocked a star off because of the lack of customisation. I already had set my new tab page to one that I've personalised, but unfortunately can't use both extensions at the same time.
