Apple watch Breathe app doesn't vibrate after watchOS 8

My series 6 Apple watch vibrated with the breathe app before the upgrade to watchOS 8. It doesn't vibrate with the app (now subsumed in the mindfulness app) after the upgrade. Removal of this functionality is retrogressive and a diminishing of the usability.
