When the day will not switch off

Your body is tired.
Your mind is still scrolling.

One more thought. One more worry. Tomorrow already asking for your attention while you are still carrying today.

The complete Quad Breath framework

Four phases. One adaptable rhythm.

ZeroEntropy uses the yogic vocabulary of Puraka, Antar Kumbhaka, Rechaka, and Bahya Kumbhaka. Its Vritti ratio extends the exhale relative to the inhale, while the app lets you set the base duration and number of cycles.

01

Puraka

Inhale

Take in the breath comfortably. This establishes the base duration: 1×.

02

Antar Kumbhaka

Hold in

Pause after the inhale without straining. The captured app ratio holds at 1×.

03

Rechaka

Extended exhale

Release through a deliberately longer exhale. ZeroEntropy displays 1.5×.

04

Bahya Kumbhaka

Hold out

Rest briefly after the exhale before the next cycle. The app displays 0.5×.

Captured current-build example

An eight-second base creates a 32-second cycle.

The supplied recording shows 8 seconds for inhale, 8 for hold in, 12 for exhale, and 4 for hold out. Four cycles are shown as approximately 2.1 minutes.

Shape the session before it begins

Capacity, time, and atmosphere are part of the practice.

01

Set the base duration

Use the plus and minus controls to choose a cycle length that feels comfortable.

02

Choose the number of cycles

The app calculates the session length so the practice can fit the time available.

03

Choose the guidance cues

Turn voice callouts and haptic feedback on or off before the session.

04

Keep or reduce guidance

Adjust the callout volume so the guidance stays present without taking over.

05

Add a background bed of your choice

Choose from the captured options, including Bird Singing, Mindfulness, Sea Wave, Acoustic Guitar, Meditation, Chakra Healing, or Lullaby Piano.

Inside a live cycle

Guidance stays present without taking over.

The native session combines the moving perimeter pointer with the current phase, a countdown, cycle progress, and controls to pause, resume, or stop.

Prepare

Choose a quiet, comfortable setting

Sit or lie down in a relaxed position. The app’s opening cue brings attention below the navel.

Follow

Let the pointer pace each phase

The active phase and remaining seconds stay visible as the pointer travels around the shape.

Adjust

Pause or stop whenever needed

Comfort takes priority over completing a number of cycles. Build gradually rather than forcing the breath.

Return

Consistency over perfection

Use the practice as a repeatable transition, not another routine to perform perfectly.

Use the rhythm for different transitions

The intention can change. The mechanism stays clear.

○

Settle

Designed to help you pause and relax when the day feels crowded.

↗

Focus

A gentler transition into work, study, reflection, or another attention-heavy moment.

☾

Wind down

Build a repeatable pre-sleep ritual without promising or forcing sleep.

These are intended routine contexts, not guaranteed medical, physiological, focus, or sleep outcomes.

Comfort before completion

Breathe comfortably. Never strain.

Start with shorter sessions and only build when the rhythm feels appropriate for you.

  • Stop if you feel dizzy, uncomfortable, or short of breath.
  • Do not use timed breathing while driving, operating machinery, in water, or during any attention-critical activity.
  • If you have respiratory conditions, anxiety disorders, or other health concerns, consult a healthcare provider before beginning a breathing practice.
  • ZeroEntropy is a mindset and self-reflection practice. It is not medical, financial, or legal advice.
