General information about the Sinira App
The name "Sinira"
The app's name Sinira is inspired by the latin phrase "sine ira et studio", which broadly translates into "without excessive ambition and emotion". It invites you to adopt a mindset that is free from strong ambition or force when practicing.
Limitations of this App
Breathing exercises are a powerful tool to calm your mind and to achieve a better state of health. However, they are no replacement for therapy nor does the information in this app provide medical advice. It is your responsibility to consult with medical personnel on what exercises suit your condition. Several sources state that exercises on breath holding (see section on Lung Capacity) are not suitable for persons with high blood pressure or during pregnancy.
