An online place to breathe, relax and heal

Holistic Loader is a calming meditation web app. Follow the guided breathing circle, choose healing sound frequencies such as 528 Hz and other Solfeggio tones, planetary tones and singing-bowl gongs, and relax with serene nature scenes — beach, forest, meadow, mountains and the cosmos. Set a session timer and unwind — no app to install.

Choose your own breathing rhythm

Adjust the inhale, hold and exhale lengths yourself, or start from a preset built around a specific rhythm and goal — including box breathing and 4-7-8 breathing — and each preset also sets the sound, tone, scene and session length for you automatically.

Pair it with the rest of your practice

Many people use guided breathing as a warm-up before something else — designing a sound bath in the Soundscape Creator, a few yoga poses, or a round of Intuition Loader once the mind is quieter.

Frequently asked questions

Is the guided breathing circle free to use?

Yes. It runs directly in your browser with no app to install and no sign-up required.

What is box breathing?

Box breathing is a rhythm of equal-length inhale, hold, exhale and hold phases — often 4 seconds each — used to calm the nervous system. You can select it as a preset or set your own equal timings on the breathing circle.

What is 4-7-8 breathing?

4-7-8 breathing is a rhythm of a 4-second inhale, a 7-second hold and an 8-second exhale, often used to help with relaxation and falling asleep. It's available as one of the breathing circle's presets.

What are Solfeggio frequencies?

Solfeggio frequencies are a set of specific sound frequencies, including 528 Hz, associated in sound-healing traditions with different states of relaxation and wellbeing. You can choose one to play alongside the guided breathing circle.
