Mental Wellness Features

xHeal supports your mental health with breathing exercises, mood tracking, and mindfulness tools that integrate with your overall health picture.

Your Mind Today

The mindfulness dashboard shows your current mental wellness score based on recent mood check-ins, sleep quality, HRV trends (stress indicator), activity levels, and mindfulness practice frequency.

Breathing Exercises

xHeal includes 6 science-backed breathing patterns: Box Breathing (4-4-4-4 for focus and calm), 4-7-8 Breathing (inhale 4, hold 7, exhale 8 for sleep and anxiety), Coherent Breathing (5-second inhales and exhales for HRV optimization), Energizing Breath (quick inhales, longer exhales for alertness), Calming Breath (extended exhales for parasympathetic activation), and Custom Pattern (create your own).

Ambient Sounds

Enhance your practice with 10 background soundscapes: Rain, Ocean waves, Forest, Fireplace, White noise, and more.

Mood Check-Ins

Track your emotional state across 5 dimensions rated 1-10: Mood (overall emotional state), Energy (physical and mental), Stress (current level), Anxiety (anxious feelings), and Focus (mental clarity). Check in daily to build a picture of your mental wellness patterns.

HRV Biofeedback

If you have an Apple Watch, xHeal can display real-time HRV during breathing exercises. This helps you see the immediate impact on your nervous system.

Mindful Minutes

Completed mindfulness sessions count toward your Apple Health Mindful Minutes and contribute to your Mental domain score.
