2-minute meditation
Two minutes is enough to interrupt stress and come back to yourself. It's the perfect reset between meetings, before a hard conversation, or any time your head is spinning. Press start and let the timer guide a couple of slow breaths.

What two minutes can do
You can't empty your inbox in two minutes, but you can change your state. A short pause with slow breathing pulls your nervous system out of fight-or-flight, lowers your heart rate, and clears just enough mental noise to respond instead of react. Done often, these micro-breaks add up to a noticeably calmer day.
How to use the timer
Sit comfortably, soften your shoulders, and let your breath slow as you follow the orb — expanding as you breathe in, settling as you breathe out. When your mind wanders, gently return. A soft chime marks the start and the end so you can keep your eyes closed the whole time.
Want it guided?
A silent timer is great — but Mynded can talk you through a 2-minute session shaped around how you feel, with a calm voice, breathing, and sleep support.

Is two minutes long enough to meditate?
Yes — for a reset, absolutely. Short, frequent practices are great for calming stress in the moment and building the habit. Longer sessions deepen the benefits, but two minutes is a real, effective practice.
How often can I do a 2-minute meditation?
As often as you like — many people sprinkle several two-minute resets through the day, especially before stressful moments or transitions.
What should I focus on?
Your breath is the easiest anchor. Follow the orb and let your exhale be slow. Each time you notice you've drifted, that noticing is the practice.
