## What is Sesshin?

Sesshin is a minimal, distraction-free meditation timer for iPhone and Apple Watch, built for practitioners of Zen.

Set your sitting duration, start your session, and let Sesshin guide the way. Traditional bells mark the beginning and end of each period. Wooden clappers signal kinhin (walking meditation) transitions. Quiet interval bells help you mark the middle of your sit without checking the clock.
