Peace Box: Breathing and Peace app for iPhone and iPad

STORY BEHIND PEACE BOX

Back when I was still an informatics engineering student, I experienced what everybody in the IT field experience, what is it? stressful nights and lack of sleep. Coding capabilities appear only at night, am I correct or am I correct? The problem is, that habit went on for too long and it evolved into insomnia. I was battling with insomnia for awhile until I found the Box Breathing Technique on social media, I did a mini research and found that it can help us relax, reduce stress, and help us to sleep, etc. I tried to practice this method every night and it worked. I slowly started to be able to control my emotion, reduce my stress, and I could finally sleep. Insomnia hasnt been an issue since then.

Inspired from my own experience, I want to translate this box breathing technique into a game called Peace Box that I hope can help people who are stressed and may have trouble sleeping like me. Peace Boxs main feature is to help people to do the box breathing technique which includes animation, countdown time, and instructions. the animation is a Gif which is used as an example of box breathing simulation, countdown is used to determine the time of box breathing, and instructions to find out what we should do. There are also additional features such as pause if we want to stop for a moment and a reset feature when it goes wrong and we want to repeat the box breathing.

How do we play this game? First tap the start button and read the instructions, then follow the first instruction by breathing in for 4 seconds, holding your breath for 4 seconds, exhaling for 4 seconds, and dont breathe for 4 seconds. repeat 5 times (based on the box breathing technique).
