The Hoberman Sphere was designed by Chuck Hoberman, who is an artist, engineer, architect, and inventor of folding toys.

The Hoberman Sphere (also known as the Breathing Ball) is used as a tool for calming the mind and connecting your breath.

The ball expands and contracts like lungs do. The idea is to synchronize the expansion and contraction of the ball with your breath as you practice mindful breathing.

Mindful breathing can:

• Reduce stress and anxiety

• Calm the mind, and

• Promote clarity of thought
