Many people are always skeptical when a web browser declares can help relax the spirit. But Opera's new Air browser is surprisingly useful, integrating handy tools to focus, meditate, exercise, etc.
You may not feel stressed, but Opera Air is worth using.
Opera Air is a browser built to relax
Opera Air has interesting features focusing on relaxation. In January 2025, Opera launched a new concept focusing on Hygge, towards coziness and calm. Now, Opera Air continues Scandinavian vibes with minimalist designs and applications to focus, pay attention, relax, exercise, etc.
But before you consider this a trick, there are a few points to note. First, Opera Air comes with other great Opera tools, such as integrated VPN, advertising, tab collection, ARIA AI, etc. So, switching to Opera Air is not ” Relax or productivity “. You have all in a single package.
Second, Opera Air is really useful. Another interesting feature is the timer “take a break”. Sometimes you focus on high levels and forget to stand up for hours, which is a bad habit. A small reminder to rest, stretch the legs and adjust the posture in general is very welcome.
Use these Opera Air tools to focus, productivity, relaxation and more
BinAural Audio Boosts
Opera framed its binAural audio integration in the form of Boosts, designed to stimulate your brain in many different ways. The binaural beat emits different audio frequencies between the ears to create something like sound illusion. When used properly, it will remind your brain to create a new frequency or rhythm, unique, depending on the original input frequency, can support relaxation, concentration, attention, clear , etc. Moreover, the beat of Binaural affects each listener different, so what you hear and feel from a specific combination may be different from your wife, your children, etc.
Opera's boosts have three components: a song in Lo-Fi style, a Ambient background music and a binaural frequency. For example, Optimal Brain Function Boost has a 40Hz gamma, “Winter Rain in Oak Forest” makes Ambient music (there are other music to choose from) and move through the list of 64 tracks. You can set up boosts to play for 15, 30, 60 or 90 minutes or unlimited if you really like it.
You can also adjust the volume of each component in Boost. Do you want to emphasize more on the frequency of binaural? Please increase the volume. There is also an option to adjust the frequency type you are listening. Opera Air's Boosts is a really useful and quick way to focus without leaving the browser.
Take a break
Opera Air's Take A Break mode gently urges you to stand up and move with a small prompt every 45-180 minutes (adjustable).
Take a break offers 4 different exercises, each is designed to reduce stress, increase concentration, etc. The exercises are relatively short, the longest is full body scan, takes up to 15 minutes. After clicking, each option has specific types of exercises, allowing you to customize time and voice instructions to focus better.
The benefits you get from these exercises really depend on what you put into them. Neck Exercise (ancient exercise) lasts 4-10 minutes, this is often a source of discomfort for a long time stooping on the keyboard. Therefore, choosing Unwind or Pain Relief options will help stretch with instructions for 4 or 5 minutes to reduce stress. The camera option does not seem to work or does not work, but that may change in the future when the newly launched Opera Air versions.
But most importantly, just a little rest and focus on something different can also bring miraculous effects on productivity, and instructions and gentle movements are also the way. Great to revive the spirit.
