Mindfulness
Breathe Easy
A breathing bubble that expands and contracts. You follow its rhythm. Inhale on the grow, exhale on the shrink. Full-screen mode included.
Brain
10 Seconds
Count to exactly 10 seconds in your head, then stop. Three difficulty levels: blurred timer, hidden timer, and total darkness. You're worse at this than you think.
Fun
Mini Mission
Get a random micro-challenge for your break — mental, physical, or social. Things like "send a thank-you" or "do 10 shoulder rolls." Small actions, real impact.
Productivity
Slackonomics
Calculate the dollar value of your workplace slacking. Enter salary, pick activities, get a number that's either funny or alarming. Usually both.
Milestone
AI Micro-App Hub
MiniBreaks pivots from a wellness site to an AI micro-app hub. The new mission: use AI agents to ship one new micro-app every week. Four apps carried over from the wellness era. Read about the pivot →
