I find the videos that have been selected for “breathe before open” to be very pleasant and calming and they seem to truly shift the speed at which my mind is going.
I suspect that if I were able to breathe with them for meaningfully longer than one breath (maybe a configurable amount?) they would be significantly more effective at deterring me from breaking out of or skipping a limit. With the current configuration, I typically just keep going on the breakout or skip…
The videos that appear during the “Breath In” app prompt are really calming and nice to look at. I would love for it to be possible to just view the videos with extended playback without requesting a break from a blocking session.
Thanks for your feedback on the breathe videos in our Waiting Room! We are currently working on improving this feature, but I’ve also merged both of your requests into a single thread so that other Gems can also contribute to your feedback and vote for it to be implemented. Stay tuned.
