Anatta is more than a timer; it is an altar to reflect. Anatta in Pali means "non-self". In a world that demands your constant attention, Anatta helps you practice the art of letting go because there is no self. Your feelings and thinkings are not yours, they are just like clouds, come and go. This app is designed for those who seek clarity without the noise of guided voices or complex analytics. Set your duration, and join in a silent sit. Enjoy the simple, rhythmic beauty of being unfazed. Features: - Easy non guided meditation timers with bell ringing to start and stop - Meditation diary to keep insights after each meditation - Customize the timers, themes and more Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
