The problem

Most meditation apps are broken

95% of people who download a meditation app stop using it within 30 days. Solo apps depend on you remembering to open them after a long day. Most people don't. Teams are burned out, back-to-back in meetings, and the "wellness stipend" goes unused.

So we built Pauso. Workplace breathwork as a team practice, not a personal chore. A short reset on the team's calendar. Your team does it together. Workplace mindfulness that sticks because it's shared.

Why Teams Choose Pauso

Research-backed mindfulness that actually sticks. No willpower required.

Built for Teams

Solo meditation apps fail because they rely on personal motivation. Pauso uses team accountability instead.

A Few Minutes That Matter

Research shows short sessions work as well as long ones. Pauso blocks 10 minutes on the calendar; the practice itself is a few focused minutes.

I've been on the meditation apps on and off for years, but really struggled to stick with them consistently. Pauso was built to help create some accountability for myself and my colleagues.

How it works

One shared room link on your team's calendar

1

Create your room

Sign in and create your team's Pauso room. You get one shared link that never changes, ready whenever your team is.

2

Put the link on the calendar

Paste the room link into a recurring 10-minute calendar event, just like any meeting link. Monday morning recharge, post-lunch reset, or Friday wind-down: it becomes a team ritual, not another task on the to-do list.

3

Breathe together

At session time, everyone opens the link in their browser and Pauso guides the team through a brief breathwork exercise in sync. A few focused minutes together, then back to work with clearer heads.

10 minworks as well as 20

Researchers at Yale found no significant difference in outcomes between 10-minute and 20-minute meditation sessions. Shorter sessions are just as effective for improving mindfulness and reducing anxiety.

Frontiers in Psychology, 2023
36%less burnout

Nursing staff who participated in a mindfulness intervention saw a 36% reduction in burnout scores. Brief, consistent practice made the difference, even in high-pressure clinical settings.

PMC, 2025
