Take a break here.
Choose anything that helps. You can stop whenever you want.
Breathing
Watch the circle. Breathe in as it grows. Breathe out as it gets smaller.
Press start when you're ready
Calm sounds
Press a sound to start it. Press it again to stop.
Quiet screen
A plain, soft screen with nothing to read or do. Good when everything feels like too much.
