Editorial standards
Helpful, transparent, people-first content.
How BreatheCove prepares general wellness education while keeping its limits visible.
Why we publish
Answer the reader's real question
Each guide is created for a recognisable need, such as understanding a panic sensation, responding to a worry loop, settling after a difficult day, or deciding when additional support may be appropriate. Pages are organised around usefulness, not around repeating as many search phrases as possible.
We aim for calm, plain language; a specific next step; relevant internal links; and a clear distinction between general education, professional care, and emergencies.
Evidence context
Source standards
For health-related context, we prefer primary or authoritative public-health information, including government health services and international public-health organisations. Relevant articles identify sources that informed their educational context and link to the original material.
Sources are not sponsors and do not endorse BreatheCove. We paraphrase and synthesise rather than copying source text. A citation means that a source informed an article; it does not mean the page has been individually reviewed or approved by that organisation.
How pages are made
Research, drafting, and publication responsibility
- Define the reader's question and the safe scope of the page.
- Review the existing BreatheCove article catalogue and relevant authoritative sources.
- Draft original, plain-language copy with safety boundaries and useful links.
- Check that the page avoids diagnosis, treatment promises, alarmist language, and dismissing physical symptoms.
- Review page structure, metadata, accessibility, links, and source labels before publication.
Software and AI-assisted tools may help with drafting, organisation, code, and quality checks. BreatheCove remains responsible for what is published. We do not label content as medically reviewed unless a suitably qualified, identified reviewer has actually reviewed it; no such claim is made on the current library.
Maintenance
Review and updates
Pages display a visible updated date. We review content when a source changes, a safety issue is identified, a reader reports a material problem, or the underlying BreatheCove article catalogue changes. An updated date records a meaningful content or editorial review, not an automatic date refresh.
Corrections
How to report a problem
Use the support page to report a factual concern, unclear safety wording, inaccessible feature, broken link, or outdated reference. Include the page title, URL, and the relevant wording. We assess the report and correct material errors when warranted.
Safety boundaries
What editorial care cannot do
Even carefully sourced general content cannot diagnose a condition, assess an emergency, or recommend individual medical care. BreatheCove is wellness self-help and education only. Read our urgent help and safety guidance before relying on the library during a crisis or medically concerning situation.
