    Hey HN! Some more info: I’m an NHS doctor and the founder of Pi-A (https://www.pi-a.io) which developed Lungy (https://www.lungy.app). Lungy is an app (iOS only for now) that responds to breathing in real-time and was designed to make breathing exercises more engaging and beneficial to do. It hopefully has many aspects of interest to the HN community – real-time fluid, cloth and soft body sims running on the phone’s GPU. My background is as a junior surgical trainee and I started building Lungy in 2020 during the first COVID lockdown in London. During COVID, there were…

    Through controlled breathing it is possible to regulate your body's stress response. I've built an app to measure and train this effect with a Polar H10 Heart Rate monitor. With every breath you take, you can set the pace of your breathing rate, measure your breathing control with the chest accelerometer, and see how heart rate variability responds.

    Squair▲162

    I built Squair because my phone was giving me anxiety - and it was also the only thing in my pocket when anxiety hit. The problem: 4 cups of coffee just to focus. Then the anxiety kicks in. Chest tight. Racing thoughts. Scrolling reels to "calm down" made it worse. I Googled "anxiety relief" at 2am and found box breathing — same technique Navy SEALs use in combat. First time I tried it, I felt the difference within 2 minutes. No crash. No pills. Just breathing. So I built an app around it. 6 months. Solo dev with a full-time job. 112 builds. 2 App Store rejections. Finally live. What it…
