About this template
Breathing exercise video template in a square 1:1 format for Instagram, Facebook and wellbeing apps that guides the viewer through one slow breath. Fifteen seconds of a single unbroken shot — mist drifting over a lake at dawn under a deep indigo tint — play on a quiet ambient pad.
The design is almost nothing: thin white type and one soft lavender disc inside a hairline ring. The disc grows for four seconds, rests for four and shrinks for four, and the words breathe in, hold and breathe out appear above a large number that counts each phase down in real seconds, four to one. Three short bars under the ring fill one after another so the whole breath can be read at a glance, and a closing line suggests repeating it four times. A small wordmark sits at the top and the name of the technique at the bottom. Still is a fictional wellbeing brand.
Replace the footage with your own calm scene, change the wording or the wordmark, and post a pause that people can follow in the middle of a busy feed.
