Meditation Timer
A calm ten-minute meditation countdown that sounds a soft alert when you're done, so you can close your eyes and stop watching the clock.
What is a Meditation Timer?
A meditation timer counts down your session and sounds a gentle alert at the end, so you can close your eyes and practise without checking the clock. This one is pre-set to 10 minutes — a sustainable daily length for beginners — and can be adjusted for longer sits. It suits breathwork, body scans, and mindfulness. It times accurately in your browser, keeps running in background tabs, and needs no account or app.
What a Meditation Timer Is Good For
Daily Sit
A sustainable ten-minute daily meditation habit.
Breathwork
Time box-breathing or paced breathing exercises.
Body Scan
A short guided-style body scan to unwind.
Meditation Timer FAQ
How long should I meditate as a beginner?▾
Ten minutes a day is a realistic, sustainable starting point. Consistency matters more than length, so a short daily sit beats occasional long ones.
Does the meditation timer have a bell?▾
It plays a gentle sound alert when the countdown ends, so you are eased out of your session rather than jolted. You can mute it with the sound toggle if you prefer silence.
Can I set a longer meditation?▾
Yes. Use the up arrows to increase the minutes before you start — many practitioners work up to 20 minutes or more over time.
