Four ways to sit
- Bell. The classic timer — choose a bowl and set your minutes.
- Breathwork. Box, 4-7-8, or a pattern you build — a dot traces every breath.
- Mantra. Count repetitions instead of minutes — 108, or any number you choose.
- Visual. Rest your gaze on a yantra while the timer holds the time for you.
The small things.
- Guided library
- A curated directory of teachers and talks worth your time.
- Ambient sound
- Rain, wind, brown noise — under any practice.
- Session notes
- A line or a mood after you sit, kept with your calendar.
- Stats without pressure
- Days, weeks, months, lifetime. No streak-shaming.
- Apple Health
- Mindful minutes written to Health — they stay on your device.
- Warm-up
- A gentle runway of seconds before the opening bell.
- Vibration-only mode
- Silent sessions for shared rooms.
- Two moods
- Sandstone by day, Moonstone by night.
