What is the 4-7-8 breathing technique?+
The 4-7-8 technique is a breathing pattern where you inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 7 seconds, and exhale for 8 seconds. The extended exhale activates your parasympathetic nervous system, which is why it's widely used to ease anxiety and fall asleep faster.
Is this meditation timer really free?+
Yes — the breathing timer, ambient soundscapes, and zen mode on this page are free to use in your browser, with no account required.
Do I need headphones for the ambient sounds?+
No, but headphones do make the rain and cosmic ambient soundscapes more immersive. The visuals and breathing timer work fully without audio too.
How long should I meditate for?+
Even 3–5 minutes of focused breathing can measurably lower stress. Start with one full 4-7-8 cycle set and extend the session as it feels natural.
