Re: How Struggle With Breathing Brought Me Closer To God Says Toyin Lawani

Context switching between deep work and meetings is brutal on focus. I started doing a 3-minute breathing reset between calendar blocks, specifically box breathing, four equal sides in and out. Found a clean timer for it at https://breathtempo.app/ No login, no friction, opens straight in the browser. I keep it pinned in a tab and just hit it between tasks. The visual guide is minimal enough that it doesn't feel like another app demanding attention. There's also a decent written guide on the site explaining the actual science behind why slow exhales affect the nervous system, refreshingly honest that it's a wellness tool, not a cure-all. Small habit, but it's made transitions between work modes feel a lot less jarring.
