I am currently using the Ha habit tool, and while it is still becoming a part of my daily lifestyle, it is truly transforming my routine. I set a reminder on my phone to use it every 20 minutes.The physical design itself is fantastic. The tool is made of high-quality, heavy metal, and wearing it around my neck serves as a constant, helpful reminder to practice. Its unique shape eliminates the need to force your breath. Previously, I tried forcing my exhales, but that created unwanted pressure.With this tool, the difference in exhale duration is massive. A normal, unassisted exhale often feels paused, stopped, and unsmooth. With the tool, the exhale is significantly longer, smoother, and calmer—even during moments of panic.Combined with my medication, I see a major reduction in panic and hypervigilance. I have been using it for less than a month, and while it is a journey that takes practice, the progress is clear. Even when I breathe without the tool now, my natural exhale is becoming calmer. Thank you to the Ha habit team for designing such a wonderful, effective product
It's helping me stopping smoking. My little live saver. I love it.
It definitely helps me when I'm dealing with panic and anxiety attacks. Sometimes they can come on all at once,and it feels overwhelming. Having my beautiful piece with me brings me a sense of comfort and familiarity. It helps me slow my breathing,settle my thoughts,and regain my focus when everything around me feels too much.
I definitely will be buying me another pair. Thank yous so much for helping me with my hard times,I really appreciate ya! ❤️💯.
Working well for my anxiety, I wear it all the time, easy to use, definitely slows down the breathing whence limits the anxiety.
Love it!
Quick and efficient communication and rectifying of my order. Definitely recommend this product and the tikanga behind it :)
I really felt nurtured and held by the customer services team, they went above and beyond to answer my questions and help ensure I had the right toggle necklace to accompany the hā tool.
So far it seems to be making a real difference. Thank you so much
I'm looking forward to using mine. It's beautiful and the cute pouch and box. Thank you for my snack.
Love this haka tool, I ordered the junior one as I prefer smaller jewellery and it is the perfect size. It’s a great reminder to breathe and the weight helps me feel centred. The design is beautiful too and great customer service and fast shipping. 🙂
Bought this for family member with anxiety and it has been very helpful - and it looks great too. Highly recommend it.
Incredibly calming to use, really helps to slow and extend the expiration. It's much easier to remember to come back to calm breathing regularly whilst wearing it. Also soothing just to hold. It is also very pretty to wear. Wish i had bought one sooner!
Great product, for keeping centred and calm. Thank you
We all know how to breathe.
Remembering to slow down in the moments that matter is the hard part.
Conscious breathing is scientifically proven to steady the body and mind. The Hā Tool makes it easier to put that into practice.
Break cycles. Become Aware.
Consciously use the breathe to interrupt habits that don't serve you.
When you find yourself reacting to your environment and you experience:
✚ excessive stress
✚ excessive worry
✚ panic attacks
✚ anger
✚ overeating
✚ smoking/vaping
✚ substance abuse
PAUSE. Become aware.
Use the Hā (breath). Calm your nervous system.
You will become better with time at pausing, breathing, and resisting the urge to react with unhelpful behaviours.
RESPOND from awareness and with compassion.
How to use the Hā Tool?
① Breathe in gently through your nose.
② Breathe out slowly through your Hā Tool.
③ Keep your attention on your breath.
④ Repeat 4–6 times, or until you feel more steady.
The key is simple: let your exhale be longer than your inhale.
Kia ora, I'm Julia Wikeepa.
He uri tēnei nō Ngāti Awa, Ngāti Maniapoto, me Te Ātihaunui-a-Pāpārangi.
I'm a māmā, practitioner, and the founder of Hā Habit.
I wanted something tangible to help me pause before I reacted — with my son, in my work, in my relationships, and in the small everyday moments that quietly shape who I become. So I asked my brother to help me create a Māori-inspired breathing trainer — shaped by our taonga pūoro.
Something I could wear, reach for, and use in 60 seconds. Right in the moment.
The Arohā™ Method behind it draws on the Māori word aroha — a simple framework for responding to stress with awareness and attention.
When we slow the exhale, it strengthens the vagus nerve and builds our capacity to handle stress over time.
It changed how I show up. It's changed how over 7,000 New Zealanders show up too.
Ko te Hā te ora. Breath is life.
This isn't just a necklace.
✦Shaped by our taonga pūoro — Māori instruments of breath
✦ Precision hole extends your exhale to 8–10 seconds — activating your vagus nerve
✦ 316L surgical stainless steel — built to last, worn daily
✦ Comes with the AROHĀ™ Method — use it in the actual moment
✦ Learn more in our by peer-reviewed article published in Mai Journal
✦ Created by a wahine Māori, a taonga for real life
Thousands of New Zealanders wear theirs every day. Not just as jewellery. As a practice.
