Sunset simulation

RelaxBreathe

Belly breathing for relaxation
During the sunset simulation, the brightness of the light decreases
gradually with colors changing from bright yellow to warm orange to
soft red. You can set the duration of the sunset simulation and the
initial light intensity of the sunset simulation.
You can also select a sound that fades away during the sunset
simulation. You can set the sound source and the initial volume. You
can either choose a natural sound, radio or no sound. You can also
play your own music by connecting a music playing device to the AUX
socket.
RelaxBreathe uses the belly breathing technique as a basis for the
breathing program. You can choose one of the breathing programs,
guided by light or sound. The combination of the belly breathing
exercise and the guidance of the connected Sleep & Wake-Up Light
helps you slow down and feel relaxed.
You can select one of seven relaxation programs with preset
breathing rhythms. Each relaxation program has a different breathing
rhythm. The program '4 breaths' is preset to 4 breaths per minute.
Program '5 breaths' is preset to 5 breaths per minute. Each next
program has one additional breath per minute. The last program (10
breaths) is preset to 10 breaths per minute.
You can select light or sound to guide you during the selected
relaxation program. Follow the light or sound when you inhale and
exhale.
- For guidance with light, inhale when the light intensity increases. In
between the two subtle light flashes, hold your breath. Exhale
slowly when the light intensity decreases.
- For guidance with sound, inhale when the intensity of the sound of
the waves increases. When the intensity of the sound pauses, hold
your breath. Slowly exhale when the intensity of the sound of the
waves decreases.
Follow your preferred rhythm with the help of light or sound for a
more relaxed feeling. You can even do this with your eyes closed.
Note: You can find an instruction video of RelaxBreathe in the app
and on the Philips website.
Belly breathing is the most recognized breathing exercise technique
to help people relax. When you breathe from your belly, your
diaphragm pulls down automatically. This pulls down your lungs and
allows you to inhale fully and deeply.
