Om meditation — guided humming
When you want to meditate
Hum 'om' on each exhale. The visual responds.
Mic stays on your device. Hum 'om' on each exhale.
About
A guided humming meditation. On each exhale, sustain the sound 'om'. The mandala's depth and color respond live to your voice — louder hum, deeper petals.
When you want a focused, embodied meditation. Quiet space helps. Headphones or speakers off — you're listening to yourself, not to the page.
Default 2 minutes 8 seconds (8 cycles). Each cycle: 4-second inhale through the nose, 12-second 'om' on the exhale.
A vibration in the chest, throat, and skull as you hum. The mandala grows when you're loud, calms when you're quiet. If the mic is off or denied, the visual still moves with your breath — humming is optional.
Vocal toning on the exhale activates the vagus nerve through both the long-exhale mechanism and direct laryngeal vibration. The technique (related to Bhramari, the bee breath) is one of the most efficient parasympathetic activators in the literature.
