The thinking behind the exercises

Familiar techniques, clear limits

The app brings together exercises involving breathing rhythms, muscle tension and relaxation, movement and directed attention. Breathing techniques and progressive muscle relaxation have been studied as approaches to relaxation. This does not mean that every breathing, movement or eye exercise has the same evidence behind it. Calm Down Fast also includes coordination and counting tasks: these are described in terms of what you do, without promising a particular result. Consider how you feel, a comfortable body position and the space available when choosing an exercise. Read the instructions and limitations before starting. Do not push through discomfort or force a result. The app helps structure an everyday pause and does not replace medical care.

Research on individual techniques does not establish that this app or every exercise produces a particular result. Experiences vary; no outcome is guaranteed.
