How it works

Breathing is a stress reliever

Breathing is the only way we are able to consciously and subconsciously stimulate our nervous system. So when you intentionally alter your breathing rate, like slowing it down to a nice even pace, may have many calming, positive effects throughout the entire body. Studies show that breathing exercises can reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety, and insomnia. Whaley uses physical cues to help you consciously and subconsciously slow down your own breath to reduce stress, naturally.

Calm breathing, calm mind

The National Health Service and Renowned institutions such as the Harvard Medical School both recommend breathing exercises as an effective way to relieve stress. Slowing down your breath is a proven technique to reduce anxious feelings, stop racing thoughts, calm your mind, and lower your heart rate. Whaley will help you unwind stress and improve your mood. The best part, you can use Whaley at any time of the day or night when you need to relax.

Calm your mind and body

The biggest obstacle to relaxation and a good night’s sleep? Stress and body tension. Simply perform gentle breathing exercises for 20 minutes with Whaley. To improve sleep, use Whaley before bedtime, and you increase your ability to fall asleep faster, wake up less often, and improve your overall sleep quality. Additionally Whaley features heat therapy which is also proven to help relieve stress, tension, cramps and help you relax before sleep.

Scientifically & clinically proven ways to improve wellness

The research on deep breathing exercises for stress relief and sleep

By harnessing the power of breathing exercises and heat therapy, Whaley offers a research-backed approach to promote relaxation, stress relief and deep restorative sleep.

Designed in Australia, Whaley is the based on research and designed to help improve the overall well-being of women around the world as a self care product to help address the challenges of today's fast paced world.

The research on deep breathing exercises for stress relief and sleep

Research shows that controlled breathing techniques, such as those used in yoga, can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, reducing stress and promoting relaxation (Jerath et al., 2006).

A study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology found that deep breathing exercises significantly improved sleep quality in participants with insomnia (Khoury et al., 2013).

A study in the Journal of Physiological Anthropology found that heat therapy can improve circulation and reduce muscle tension, contributing to better sleep (Kawabata et al., 2009).

Research in the Journal of Sleep Research demonstrated that warming the body before sleep can enhance sleep quality by accelerating sleep onset and increasing deep sleep stages (Horne & Reid, 1985).
