Breath Follower

Breath Follower is a web based application that may be helpful in developing mindfulness. It is aimed at people who are comfortable with computers rather than non computer users for whom the technology would be a distraction.

The application is under development. I need to check if the software works and see whether people find it easy to use. If it 'works' - in the broadest sense - then it may be used as part of a real, controlled trial for which ethical approval would be needed. Such a trial would ask participants to use the application at least once a day for several weeks.

Please have a go at using the Breath Follower and let me know what you think. You can run as many sessions as you like. Keep in mind that a 'real' user would use it at least once a day for some time.

Send feedback to Roger Hyam. I am interested in hearing about any technical difficulties you have and how easy you found it to get through a session.

Guidance on Use
