Breath Glider

A breathing game. Hold to breathe in, let go to breathe out, and glide along a ribbon of light that follows your chosen rhythm. Gathering stars quietly trains slow breathing.

Ripple Pond

Tap a moonlit pond to send out ripples and soft musical notes. Koi fish swim over to see what you made.

Zen Garden

Rake flowing patterns into the sand, place smooth stones and watch rings form around them. Start over as often as you like.

Worry Lanterns

Write down what's weighing on you, then release it as a glowing lantern and watch it drift away over the lake. Nothing is saved.

Why calm games help

Slow, repetitive, low-stakes play gives an anxious mind something soothing to focus on. Breath Glider goes a step further: by holding and releasing in time with a breathing rhythm, you practice slow breathing without having to think about it.
