This widget is designed to support Emotional Regulation by providing a rhythmic, low-stakes motor task. For many students, especially those with ADHD or ASD, a "digital fidget" can help bridge the gap between a state of high anxiety and a state of calm focus.
This widget is specifically effective for students who find verbal instructions ("Breathe in/out") frustrating when they are overwhelmed, as it focuses entirely on the visual-motor loop.
Great tool for students to use for 60 seconds before transitioning from a high-energy activity (like Gym or Recess) to a quiet activity (like Silent Reading or Math).
