Tummo Breath: Guided Breathing2.6

Tummo Breath is your guided breathwork timer for Tummo breathing – one of the most powerful breathing techniques in the world. Deep rhythmic breathing, a relaxed breath hold and a short recovery breath leave you calmer, clearer and more energized in about 10 minutes. No experience needed.

Just press START, close your eyes and follow the voice, the sounds and the breathing animation.

HOW A SESSION WORKS

Phase 1 – Deep Breathing
Take 30 deep, powerful breaths. Breathe in fully, then simply let go. The animation and breathing sounds set the rhythm for you.

Phase 2 – Breath Hold
After the last exhale, hold your breath and relax completely. The timer tracks your breath retention – tap whenever you need to breathe again.

Phase 3 – Re-Energize
Take one full breath in and hold it for about 15 seconds. Then the next round begins. With every round you sink deeper into a calm, focused state.
