Breathe to Unlock Apps. Pause Mindless Scrolling. Reclaim Your Time.

Built on a 2,000-year-old mindfulness practice, Welligama helps you pause, breathe, and use your digital devices more consciously.

Meet the Developer

“18 years ago, I learned a powerful breathing practice to center myself in the present moment, from Zen monks in a mountain monastery. It was a simple practice but transformed my life and helped me regain my health.

I have continued to use it daily since then and have found it invaluable in keeping me centered as I spend time online on my digital devices.

Welligama is my adaptation of this ancient practice to a digital version, to address one of the greatest challenges we face today, mindfully using our digital devices.”

Praveen Dayananda, Developer of Welligama.

UCLA Certified Mindfulness Teacher (2013). Ordained as a Mindfulness Facilitator by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh (2013). Stanford University trained leadership expert (2014).
