v1.9 is out — now works on Windows 11 too (contributed by @SHJordan in PR #3). pip install --upgrade breathe-cli to update.

Looks nice! Thank you for sharing. It's nice to see that I'm not alone in my breatghing pursuits.

I'm wondering if you tested my app. Care to share your feedback?

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. However the purpose here is medical for a Market of One (myself), not meditation. Give it a try and share your feedback.

This is true as I've created this app for a Market of One. Having said that, if there's sufficient interest I'm considering adding other breathing modes besides Heart-Failure-friendly ones. If interested, open a Feature Request.

Thank you for asking. I've been building for a Market of One --- i.e. myself (heart failuer). Research shows breath holds are not recommended for my condition. Having said that, I realize this is not a universal guideline. I'm considering adding other modes besides heart failure-friendly ones. What are your use cases? Would you like to submit a feature request?

Thank you for your comment. I've never envisaged this kind of an application. Does it help you? Is there any research you can share or is it just anecdotal?

Thank you for noticing. You've really captured the idea of the app.

Dizziness is certainly not the intended outcome; I don't get any. It's too much oxigen in your system. Ditto more shallow breathing.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Try more shallow breathing rather than modifying the frequency/timing, which is the whole point of this approach :)

Good point. I can't see a reason not to regulate your nervous system. Give the app a try and share your feedback.

I'm wondering if the protocols that I have included with the app could be helpful in your situation. I'm curious of your feedback on the app.

In psychology there's the concept of Secondary Benefits — a behavior harmuful on the surface always has a Positive Intention behind it — otherwise an individual would not engage in it.
