Quietude — Calm your nervous system
Slow exhales calm the vagus nerve. Theta and alpha waves guide the mind toward stillness. Quietude gives you both — in one breath.
Eight practices for what you carry
Each session is tuned to a specific state — its own frequency, its own breath rhythm.
Anxiety<br>Ground your nervous system.
Panic<br>Rapid nervous system soothe.
Overwhelm<br>Clear the mental fog.
Overthinking<br>Quiet the looping mind.
Stress<br>Release the tension you carry.
Tension<br>Soften what has hardened.
Focus<br>Sharpen attention and find flow.
Fatigue<br>Restore energy without caffeine.
How Quietude works
No mysticism. Just sound, breath, and your own physiology.
01
Frequencies, your way
Theta, alpha, and beta beats over warm carrier tones from 174 Hz to 741 Hz — a wider range than most apps reach. Pick one of six sound modes and a 3-, 5-, or 10-minute session.
02
Guided breathwork
Exhale-heavy patterns — like 4-2-8 for panic — activate the vagus nerve, your body's built-in brake.
03
Track your calm
A quick mood check-in before and after each session shows how much it helped — with your streak, a mood-over-time chart, the practice that works best for you, and a daily gratitude note.
04
Installs on any device
Quietude is a Progressive Web App — add it to your home screen on Android or iPhone and it opens full-screen like a native app, with no App Store needed.
Not just binaural
Most apps offer one kind of beat. Quietude gives you six ways to feel a frequency — so you can find the one your mind responds to.
Binaural<br>Headphones
A different tone in each ear — your brain creates the beat in between.
Isochronic
A single tone pulsed on and off at the beat rate. Works on speakers.
Monaural
Two tones blended before they reach you, beating audibly. Works on speakers.
Hemispheric Sync<br>Headphones
A binaural pair with a whole-mix pulse to engage both hemispheres.
Ambient
A soft noise bed under a gentle beat — the most subtle, speaker-friendly mode.
Phase Shifted<br>Headphones
One carrier that sweeps between the ears at the beat rate.
