I'm a fan of the 4-7-8 method. Two points of feedback:
1. The animation when using Firefox is ... "jumpy." This distracted me, making me feel like I wasn't breathing smoothly along with the animation. I'm not sure why it made me feel this way, but it did.
2. Slowly transitioning to the color blue for the hold may not be the best choice, since my mind went straight to turning blue from lack of oxygen. Not exactly relaxing.
Design is hard. It does weird things to the subconscious. :)
That's a really great point- thanks for the feedback. I updated it to fade to pink as you're holding your breath. Looking into the Firefox issue as well.
