Meditate

A little space to arrive.

Choose a length that feels possible today. When sound is available, one singing bowl chime begins your sitting and three gentle chimes are scheduled at its completion.

Self-guided timer

Sit for as long as you need.

There is no perfect length. A few minutes of honest attention is already a meaningful beginning.

This timer lives only in this browser tab. Reloading or closing the page resets your session. For the most dependable timing and bowl chimes, keep the page open and your device awake; a background tab or locked screen may pause the timer or silence sound.

Ready 10:00 A ten-minute sitting

A five-second countdown gives you time to settle in.

minutes

Choose any whole number from 1 to 120 minutes.

Five seconds to settle in, then one chime begins your full sitting when sound is available. Three chimes are scheduled when it ends.

Sound is checked when you begin; the timer remains available without it.

01

Before you begin

Find a posture you can sustain. Let the first bell be enough of an arrival.

02

When the mind wanders

Notice that you have wandered, then return gently to the body and breath.

03

When the bells return

Take one unhurried breath before moving. You do not need to rush back.

Guided meditation

Return gently.

A guided introduction, time to practice in silence, and a gentle close.

The same spoken guidance accompanies each sitting. Longer sessions give you more quiet time to practice.

Ready

10:00

Ready when you are.

Choose a length, then begin.

Choose your guided sitting length

Five seconds to get situated, then one bowl sound begins your sitting. Three bowl sounds mark its end.

The countdown and closing bowl sounds are outside your selected sitting time.

Keep your eyes open if you prefer. You can adjust your posture or pause at any time. If the breath feels uncomfortable, rest your attention on the support beneath your body.

Use your device’s volume controls. Keep this page open; reloading resets the session. If audio pauses or needs to load, your place is preserved.

Times begin with the opening bowl, after the countdown. The current section is highlighted during playback.

    Meditation is not a performance. It is a chance to notice what is here, and to meet it with a little more patience.
