Common Questions
When do I start my first inhalation?
Whenever you are ready.
When do I start to exhale?
Begin to exhale the moment a new triangle appears.
Why do I sometimes see lots of triangles appear one right after the other?
This means that you are not exhaling slowly when each triangle appears. If
you slowly exhale the moment a triangle appears, the next triangle will take
a longer time before it appears. As you change your breathing, the
triangles will change as well. Simply relax and exhale slowly.
What number should I count to while exhaling?
The number you count to will depend on your nervous system.
We recommend you try different counts. For example, you can try 10
breaths with a count of 4. That is, as you exhale slowly, silently say
“1..2..3..4” to yourself. Do this for 10 breaths. Then try 10 breaths

with a different count.
You will know you have found a good count when you see two dot (
) or three dot ( ) symbols appearing below each wave. If you find
you are not getting these symbols below your waves, simply try a
different number.
When do I start inhaling?
The moment you are done counting, begin to slowly inhale again. Continue
inhaling slowly until a new triangle appears.
What if a triangle appears while I am still exhaling?
Start over and count to a lower number during your exhales.
What if a triangle appears before I have enough time to finish inhaling?
Decrease the number you are counting to on your exhales.
