It’s best to not be dependent on apps when it comes to breathing exercises and meditation, but there’s where most of us begin. There are plenty of great guided meditation apps if you’re getting started, and once you get in the groove, you can try to keep going on your own. Here are some great meditation apps to try:
Unwind: It’s a really simple and beautifully designed app for iPhone and Apple Watch. It will help you practice box breathing.
iBreathe: iBreathe is a simple, visual app that covers many of the breathing exercises we talked about above. Best of all, it’s free, and there’s no in-app subscription. You can choose to pay $1.99 to remove all ads.
Mindfulness app for Apple Watch: If you use an Apple Watch, you can use the built-in Mindfulness app to practice deep breathing.
Prana Breath: This is a free Android app that features many breathing exercises we covered above.
