Need breathing,not meditation?
Headspace is a meditation platform with breathing as a side feature and a subscription price. exhale+unwind is built purely for breathing — free, offline, no account.
Meditation and breathing are different tools.
When you're in distress, the last thing you want is a menu of 31 options and no idea which one fits.
One-size-fits-all breathing ignores whether you're panicking, wired, or wide awake at 3am.
Not after a long intro, a sign-up, or a subscription wall. Now.
