insight timer | meditation app

i love this app! i mostly use insight timer for its meditation timer, which is totally free, and you can customize it to be as long as you want and to include whatever sounds you want: i go with just silence but a bell at the beginning and end, though you can also add ambient sounds like water or birds chirping or chanting. there are also a ton of guided meditations on the app, and i'll often listen to the sleep ones if i'm having trouble falling asleep.

Me too! I do the ‘sigh out stress & anxiety’ guided breath work by Kristy Lyons every night before bed. Only 6 minutes, but a game changer!

“Excellent free meditation app. The timer itself works well and is customizable (for example, if you want bells throughout or just a beginning and ending bell). There are also guided meditations for yoga nidra, metta, and more. Honestly, works best on mobile but you can also add a widget to your desktop.”

“i looove this app for meditations and use it often to fall asleep. it's worth running the little sample first so you don't commit to someone with an annoying voice but once you find a good rotation of yoga nidra meditations you'll be sleeping easy night on night.”
