Aera: Calm Breathing

iPhone / Forme et santé

Aera teaches and guides you through a single breathing technique that works.

The physiological sigh, a double inhale followed by a long exhale, is the fastest known way to reduce stress and anxiety. Stanford neuroscientists studied it against mindfulness and box breathing. The long exhale activates your parasympathetic nervous system, your body's built-in rest mode. Even a single cycle shifts your physiology measurably. Three cycles takes 38 seconds.

Aera is built for real life, free from unnecessary distractions. No guided meditations. No streaks. No pressure. Just open the app, tap the circle, and breathe. Use it on the subway, before a meeting, or at 2am when your mind won't stop.

With Aera Pro, you can track your mood over time, view trends, and unlock additional research-backed breathing techniques.
