A little instruction, then silence. Guidance is optional.
Sit on a cushion or chair · eyes slightly open, soft gaze · feel your body, breath and posture · no mantra, no goal · when thoughts come and go: just return to sitting.
The benefits are real: a calm mind · better sleep · less stress · more presence · they show up when you stop chasing them.
Just sit. Easier said than done. Just sitting can be brutal. Most people need a little company: one idea, then silence. And that is just fine.
Zen : Your Way. Explore meditation · just listen · one idea every day · let it sink in · then sit in silence.
Everything you need to just sit is included, and always free. A timer · bells · Watch · widgets · no ads · no streaks · no account to sit. The sit stays free — always.
Native on every Apple device. iPhone · iPad · Mac · Watch · TV · Vision Pro · always with you, wherever you sit · just sit.
Guidance is optional. Open the app, pick a duration, sit. Eyes slightly open, soft gaze. When thoughts come and go: just return to sitting. That is the essence of meditation. That is what you will learn.
A cushion or a chair is fine. Sit upright, then let the shoulders drop. Eyes slightly open, if you can today. You will learn the form so you can stay awake, stay present. The form is how you stay. Then, just sit.
The form and the mindset of meditation. A couple of minutes of instruction. Then you sit. Upright, hands at rest, soft eyes. Leave the breath. Let thoughts be. The daily sit is the whole practice. Then continue if you want.
The first week. Form and mindset. Then you sit in silence.

Open the app · pick a duration · sit. Zen is a minimalist meditation timer first. The things you need and nothing more: beautiful bells · soundscapes · intervals · warmup and cooldown.
If you want to look around: the first week teaches the form and the mindset of meditation — how sitting works, then silence. Guidance is optional. Learning The Basics Is Free.
Sitting is free. The path is optional. The timer stays free. After the first week, Your Way is a daily companion — a subscription. Yearly includes a week free to try the path.
Hi, I'm Francis, a longtime iOS developer. I discovered regular meditation about 15 years ago. You see, I suffer from PTSD and meditation has helped me survive, more than once, when things fall apart.
But meditation only clicked for me with a Zen just sit practice — other practices, sampling, trial and error, years of showing up to sit. I needed those 10,000 minutes on apps before I could stop searching.
In the end, just sit. Zen : Your Way is my way of giving back. A quiet Apple-native timer. Optional guidance to nudge you toward just sitting. Nothing in the way of the sit itself.
