## What is Tiyoweh?

Tiyoweh is a Seneca-language word for the stillness or silence that we encounter internally when there is no chatter coming from the mind's thoughts. Tiyoweh is the word for the Native American spiritual discipline translated literally as 'entering the silence'. Tiyoweh is a spiritual discipline that can reduce stress, control anxiety, enhance self-awareness, lengthen attention spans, generate kindness & gratitude, help fight addiction & transform fear into peace. Any discipline, followed faithfully daily, can allow a person to enter a serene state of stillness, and practice is the key that opens the door to Tiyoweh. Aim for half an hour to one hour a day of practice.


Features Include:
*Try a mindful shower using the new Timer Only option on Apple Watch. Set the haptic interval to one minute and set a timer for 6 minutes, beginning and ending with cold water, each minute switch back and forward from cold to hot, cold, hot and back to cold.
*Start mindfulness activities on Apple Watch and record 'Mindful Minutes' in the Apple Health app at the same time. Aim for ½ an hour to an hour a day of Tiyoweh.
*Automatic switching between light and dark mode on supported iPhones.

### 4/5 — Solid app does what it says

*2024-12-22*

Works as it should. I use it regularly on my watch. I start it in my watch via a shortcut to set focus, but I wish there was some shortcut integration to start a specific session via the shortcut directly rather than having shortcut open the app and require me to start it.

**Developer response:** Hi, Thanks for using the app. Based on your feedback, I understand you would like to start a Tiyoweh meditation or workout with Siri Shortcuts. Keep an eye out for the feature in a future update. Best Regards, Kurt.
