Description

Guided Breathing Breaks for Anki Take breathing breaks without losing your study flow. This add-on introduces short guided breathing sessions after a configurable number of reviewed cards. It is designed to help reduce study stress, refresh your focus, and prevent burnout during long Anki sessions. Instead of pushing through fatigue, you’ll get gentle reminders to pause, breathe, and reset — then continue studying with a clearer mind. 🌿 Guided Breathing Breaks — Main Features 🌐 Language Easily switch between English and Spanish. This setting affects both the interface and the guided voice. ⏸️ Enable automatic prompt while studying Turn the breathing reminder on or off during your review sessions. 🪟 Prompt style Choose how notifications appear: • ⚡ Aggressive — centered on the review screen • 😊 Gentle — appears in the bottom-right corner 🔔 Play bell sound at start and end Optionally enable a Tibetan bell to mark the beginning and end of each breathing session. 🔢 Prompt every X cards Set how many reviewed cards trigger a breathing reminder. When the reminder appears, you can: • 🧘 Take the breath • ⏳ Snooze for 10 cards • ❌ Dismiss the reminder ⌨️ Keyboard shortcut Launch AnkiBreather instantly with a custom hotkey whenever you want to take a break. 🧘 Default routine Choose from 6 guided breathing patterns, including a fully customizable option. ⚙️ Custom times Activated when selecting Custom in Default Routine. Configure your own inhale, hold, and exhale timings. 🔁 Default cycles Set the number of breathing cycles per session. An estimated session duration is displayed below. I truly recommend doing at least 3 minutes per session. 🎙️ Voice guide Switch between male or female voice guidance (depends on voices installed in your operating system). 🎨 Meditation color Customize the color of the breathing sphere and popup interface to match your preference. 🎥 Visual Demo 💡 Why use it? Long Anki sessions can become mentally exhausting. Brief, structured breathing breaks can improve focus, lower stress, and make your study sessions more sustainable over time. Perfect for students preparing for demanding exams or anyone who wants a calmer, more sustainable Anki experience. ☕ Support this project Help, support and bug reports If you like AnkiBreath, please give it a thumbs up👍 and share it with your friends, so that more people can enjoy it!
