What people do today

🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. Add an independent volume slider for background music within the breathing coach interface.
  2. Implement an auto-ducking feature that lowers music volume when the voice coach is speaking.
  3. Provide a preset mix setting to prioritize voice clarity over ambient music.
