Why Choose This Activity
Calm Breath is a one-minute reset when someone needs grounding without a long setup. It suits Wellness Path sessions, a Memory Care transition, or a Sharp Mind break between heavier tasks. The locked length makes it easy to slot into a routine.
A fixed one-minute Coherence session with three pace choices offers calm structure without technique menus or duration decisions.
How It Plays
Pick Easy, Normal, or Hard pace, then tap Begin for a locked one-minute Coherence session. Breathe in as the orb grows and out as it shrinks, following even inhale and exhale timing. Tap the screen to pause if a break is needed.

Facilitator Tips
- Normal (5-5) is the balanced default; use Easy (4-4) when shorter breaths feel safer.
- Hard (7-7) suits users who want slower, longer breaths.
- If someone feels dizzy, pause immediately and return to normal breathing.
- Ambient music plays when enabled - adjust volume from the speaker control before Begin.
- For longer sessions or other techniques, open the full Breathe activity from the menu.
