Sit Timer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Sit is a meditation timer for people who just want to sit. Set a duration, choose a bell, begin. A gentle sound marks the start and end of your practice. Nothing else gets in the way. Bells — Eight resonant sounds including singing bowl, temple bell, gong, and crystal. Set different bells for the start, interval, and end of your session. Haptic — Prefer silence? Switch to haptic mode and feel the bell instead of hearing it. Prep — A brief countdown before your session so you can set the phone down before it begins. No accounts. No streaks. No distractions. Sit. That's it.

Just Mind is your private companion between therapy sessions at Just Mind Counseling in Austin, Texas. A calm, simple space to notice how you're doing, reflect on what's coming up, and stay connected to your care — all on your own phone. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Journal — Write about what's on your mind with a gentle daily prompt, and look back on past entries to see how things have shifted over time. • Wellbeing Check-In — Answer four short questions about how different parts of your life are going. See your score, follow your trends over 30, 90, and 180 days, and bring the results to your next session. • Read the blog — Browse mental-health articles from the Just Mind team on anxiety, relationships, parenting, self-growth, and more. • Stay connected — Reach your therapist's secure portal for messages, invoices, and billing; keep your next appointment in view; and find crisis support any time. YOUR PRIVACY COMES FIRST Everything you write — every journal entry and check-in — is stored only on your device. Nothing is uploaded to a server, synced to the cloud, or shared with Just Mind Counseling or anyone else. No analytics, no tracking. Lock the app with Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode, and clear all your data whenever you like. A COMPANION, NOT A REPLACEMENT Just Mind supports the work you do with your therapist — it doesn't replace professional care, and it isn't a crisis service. If you're in crisis, the app puts the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline and other support one tap away. The Journal, Check-In, and Blog are open to everyone. Messaging and billing require a Just Mind client portal login.
