Mindful Pause

Pause first.

Two deep breaths, one honest question — “Why are you opening this right now?” — and then your choice.

You pick: “I don’t need this right now” or “I’ll carry on anyway”. Either is fine.

Mindful Pause asking “Why are you opening this right now?” with two answers to choose from

Breathe

Follow the circle.

The circle grows as you breathe in and shrinks as you breathe out. Box breathing 4 · 4 · 4 · 4 for focus, coherent 5 · 5 for a steady rhythm.

One session runs two minutes. Pro adds 4-7-8 Relax and Energize.

The urge passes.
You remain.

Mindfulness gives you the two minutes in between.

Ground

5-4-3-2-1 — back to now.

Five things you see, four you feel, three you hear, two you smell, one you taste. Step by step, at your own pace.

Pro adds a body scan from head to toe and an anchor phrase to hold on to.

Your day

Stay with it, without pressure.

An intention for today, an affirmation, and a streak counting the days you took a moment for yourself.

One gentle reminder a day, at the time you choose. There are no other notifications.

Quick questions.

Who is Mindfulness for?

For anyone who wants to come down for a moment in the middle of the day — before a meeting, after an argument, or instead of the next scroll. No course, no evening routine: two minutes are enough.

What does Mindfulness cost?

The core is free: the mindful pause, box and coherent breathing, the 5-4-3-2-1 exercise, intention, streak and the daily reminder. Mindfulness Pro adds two more breathing rhythms (4-7-8 Relax, Energize) and two more grounding exercises (body scan, anchor phrase) — monthly, yearly or as a one-time purchase. The price is shown in the store.

How does Mindfulness make money?

Only through the optional Pro purchase. There are no ads, no trackers and no data to sell — the app has no user accounts and no server of its own.

Is this medical or psychological advice?

No. Mindfulness offers simple exercises for breathing and pausing. It is not medical or psychological advice, makes no diagnosis and does not replace treatment or therapy. If you are going through a hard time, please talk to a doctor or a therapist.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no sign-up. Your intention, streak, sessions and settings are stored on your phone and disappear when you uninstall the app.

When can I get the app?

It is built for iPhone and Android but not published yet. Sign up for the newsletter below and you will hear about it first.

Which languages does the app speak?

German and English. The app follows your phone’s language; the screenshots on this page show the English version.

Two minutes for you.

Breathe, arrive, carry on — whenever the day gets loud.
