About Meditation Words & Bell Timer
Meditation calms the mind, increases positive mental states, and decreases stress. It's easy to add a few moments of meditation to your daily routine. This app will walk you through a brief breathing exercise, helping you to find a moment of calmness in your busy day. Or you can turn on the ocean wave sounds and let the app guide you in a loving kindness meditation to increase feelings of empathy and connection with all beings.
For zen meditation practitioners, this app includes a simple timer which rings a bell every few minutes, so you can meditate for 10, 20, or 30 minutes, etc.
The app works by showing words or phrases on the top of the screen for your in-breath, and on the bottom for out-breath. You can choose from meditations and prayers from various traditions: Christian, Buddhist, Taoist, & secular.
It includes calming ocean wave sounds, customizable breathing pace, indefinite repeat of meditations, support for tablets, and text-to-speech for the visually impaired.
Please email with feature suggestions, bugs, or texts you wish to have added. I try to be responsive to requests.

Disappointed. Thought this might be a guided imagery type meditation but it's not. Doesn't have many to choose from either. Just o.k.

I adore this app. Unfortunately I have a bug phobia that includes butterflies, and I'm not zen enough to handle seeing the thing going in and out.

I like that you can add your own texts. In the past version to change from one of your own texts to another of your own you needed to push the button for an original text and then once that original was set go back push the custom button. How about more sounds like a running stream?

I really like this app. Is there a repeat mode for custom notes? Don't want it to end after one round. How about a shuffling mode?

Its really relaxing once you can repeat the words without looking...but its way to short. There needs to be a timer or some time limit set.

Great idea and execution, but def needs voiceover. Reading takes from the effect.

Love it. I do agree though, as a Buddhist, would love a voice as well as timer for longer practice sessions, please?

A repeat option is definitely needed for any meditations over 1-2 minutes.

Love this, but it shuts itself off too soon. Perhaps a timer, or let us turn it off?

If there were audio as well, i could close my eyes, and breath in and out and hear the words. Can you include it? The custom text does not work: when i press start, the words i have entered do not show, instead i have the 'simple breathing" words. I would have loved to breath in and out on my words. Please fix it, if possible. Thanks anyway.
