What you get
Prāṇa was built for exactly this.
The core features that make Prāṇa different from the generic alternatives.
Adaptive Haṭha sequencing
A daily practice that tunes which pranayamas you do — and their breath ratio — to your current breath-hold capacity, drawn from the Haṭha Yoga Pradīpikā and Gheraṇḍa Saṃhitā.
Kumbhaka capacity graph
Watch your breath-retention build over weeks, with the ratio progression (1:4:2 and beyond) made visible from day seven.
A curated library, not an infinite one
35+ traditional pranayamas and kriyas, each with history, variations, and contraindications, rather than a bottomless feed.
Cycle-aware practice
Sequencing can modulate with the menstrual cycle, so the practice meets the body where it is instead of running one fixed routine.
Yours on your devices
Detection and your practice journal stay on-device, syncing only through your own iCloud across iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch — no third-party account, no server.
Honest by design
A 30-day streak that doesn't shame you for missing, and a single morning reminder at the hour you choose — never engagement-bait notifications.
How it works
Three steps. No account. No tracking.
01
Download once
Install Prāṇa from the App Store when the waitlist opens. No account setup — it works the moment you open it.
02
Use for ninety seconds a day
The product is designed so the useful thing takes less than two minutes. Anything longer and you stop. We know.
03
Notice what changes
Patterns surface after two to three weeks. The data is yours alone — no cloud, no report to anyone.
