Being - One Minute to Calm

One Minute to Calm

I don't want to shop for meditations. I just want to meditate.

Most meditation apps have become the same. Hundreds of session choices. Subscription tiers. Decision fatigue before you even begin. By the time you pick something, you've wasted the mental energy you were trying to preserve.

I started Family IT Guy to help families navigate technology. Here's what I have found: internet-connected screens introduce chaos - into our adult minds, and especially into the minds of children.

The antidote to chaos is stillness.

But we can't teach our kids something we don't practice ourselves.

So I built Being. When you open it, it starts. No decisions. Just breathing. Stillness.

The Pattern

4s Inhale

1.5s Hold

8s Exhale

1.5s Hold

Psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Amen calls this the 15-second protocol. The 2:1 exhale ratio activates your parasympathetic nervous system. Do it 4-6 times and your whole body calms down.

In a world of constant doing, try Being.
