I got frustrated enough with the breathwork apps out there that I ended up making my own. Everything is either insanely priced or just lacks the features and layout I wanted from when I used to practice actual biofeedback. I originally built it just for me, but it’s slowly grown into something I’d like to share.

It has 30+ patterns, custom timing, visual/audio/haptic guidance, optional check-ins, pulse feedback through the iPhone camera or a compatible sensor (this is where I definitely need feedback!), and Apple Watch support. You can also pair it with a Polar H10 for extremely accurate biofeedback sessions. My goal is to include other options as well but again I built it based on my own setup.

I’m looking for a few people to use it over several sessions and tell me what feels useful, confusing, unnecessary, or broken. Everything will be unlocked and free during the beta. If I decide to actually release, I’ll also give you free access (my goal is to make it freemium — core things free and then the stuff that’s taken a lot of work I’ll charge a small but super reasonable amount for).

You’ll need an iPhone running iOS 26; Apple Watch is optional. And of course an open mind that this is a new app. :)

As a fan in the US, I actually much prefer the coverage of games from Canadian markets more than most US markets. I envy Canada for being so into the sport, it’s something I wish the US would embrace as strongly.

That said, I have noticed recently that it seems like Rogers is making a lot of weird cuts to all kinds of staff, programs, and other things that a lot of fans really seem to enjoy. What the hell is going on up there?? I can’t understand why they’d want to cut major traditional media in an area where the sport is so widely loved and respected.

Can any Canadian fans weigh in on what the deal is and why this stuff keeps happening? I can even tell the remaining staff, while obviously they cannot trash talk their employer, are not happy with a lot of these decisions which also seems very stupid on Rogers’ behalf. Like what is their end goal? I don’t see any announcements about growth or new directions or upgrading at all. Just cutting and minimizing….

Has anyone noticed that when ragweed season starts to kick up they feel depressed/sad/down and heavy/tired feeling in their body? I’ve been tracking my allergies the last few years and this hits me hard right at the start of ragweed season. I initially thought it could be SAD but it changes based on location and when the ragweed kicks off!

Anyone else experience this? It’s weird because all other environmental allergies typically make me anxious and more ‘up’ feeling, but ragweed legit makes me feel down and blah.

I have discovered that a Tylenol/Ibuprofen combo seems to help that heavy feeling go away some, but any tips would be appreciated!

Is anyone else noticing a pretty noticeable shift in errors in performance lately? In the last week I’m experiencing a LOT of weird oversights and mistakes using Fable 5. Initially, Fable 5 was severely outperforming 5.6-Sol. This past week? It’s like someone flipped a switch.

My initial experience was extreme thoroughness. Now? Legitimately seems to fall of the rails, make a LOT of weird and sometimes totally amateur mistakes, and it even has started arguing with itself over tasks that are not difficult at all.

An example of performance: I build an app for myself using Fable 5 a few weeks ago. This week I attempted to build roughly 1/3 of that same app but in a standalone context and it has literally taken 10x longer to finalize and it’s loaded with bugs. Same approach, same workflow.

Anyone else experiencing this too? I seriously feel like they dumbed things down again. It’s not as obvious on smaller tasks, but larger ones are suddenly tripping over themselves!

I’ve recently been experiencing weird body aches and this weird depressed and numb type feeling. It really sucks and it’s not my norm. I recently figured out that it goes away after I eat a salty meal! I thought it might be blood sugar but I’m not diabetic and my blood sugar is normal. Does anyone relate to this? I moved from Florida last year and am further north for the first time in my life. It just recently started getting hot and humid here, and it made me wonder if what I’m experiencing is related? It feels like my whole body is heavy and my mood is just…. flat and defeated? But it goes away within 30 minutes of eating, and quicker if it’s extremely salty.

All feedback welcome! I have mild POTS plus histamine issues and I’m also AuDHD, so it can be challenging trying to understand what the hell my body is trying to do/tell me!

Girlfriend and I have been having massive headaches and sinus pressure all of a sudden this week. Someone pointed out that the Canadian wildfires might be to blame (especially in the bowl), but we thought those would be too far to have impact here? Someone else mentioned the yearly Sahara Desert dust cloud but again, wouldn’t we be too far inland for that? Just curious if wildfire smoke is actually a thing here and if anyone else has been getting hit? We’re going nuts (and tested negative for everything)!

I’m deep in workflow and have been for hours and days. Out of nowhere while giving me a response to a pretty in-depth prompt, Claude tells me it needs to stop a moment and be honest with me about something.

It literally admits to me that it’s been calling me Kevin. That…. is definitely not my name. 😂

It goes on to say that even though it never did it to my face, it needed to admit to me that it had been referring to me as ‘Kevin’ for quite some time internally/in the background and that it just caught it and wanted to correct it.

I thought this was so bizarre and wild, and yet hilarious! It then just went right back to doing its thing and never spoke of it again.

Looking for solid recommendations. Have a nice screw sticking in my new tire and have a slow leak. Wondering the most reputable places in the area for this kind of thing?

I think as soon as Bruce Cassidy became suddenly available, the Oilers management wanted him. It’s the only thing that makes [financial] sense as to firing Knob after he signed a 3 year deal. I think there’s already some sort of unofficial agreement in place.

That said, I’m predicting that if we don’t land him AND we just fired Knob, Bowman is immediately fired next.

Thoughts?

I don’t know what the fuck it is, but she seems like one of those teachers you had growing up who were just mean as shit and strict for no real reason. Also an 89% chance she has some weird BDSM dominatrix setup in her basement.

I need an adult.

As a fan of Tampa and Edmonton, both are highly competitive and want to make adjustments. So I have a trade proposal and I’m wondering everyone’s take?

Edmonton Trades:
RNH, Bouchard, Nurse

Tampa Trades:
Point, Raddysh, Cernak

There’s obviously likely be some other small pieces added, but in curious what everyone thinks? Both teams benefit in different ways, and I can honestly see Nurse playing Tampa’s system way better than Edmonton’s. Raddysh would be a sign and trade, and it’s a bit of a gamble, but if we free up some cap space we can actually go after a strong G.

RNH is getting older, but Point has slowed down due to injuries, too.

I know I’ll get flamed for this, but just trying to be creative! Thoughts?
