rideforever Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) Anyone can recommend a good interval timer for practice, for instance 3 min periods of ZZ postures. I saw one GymBoss about £20, is best ??? Better than switching on laptop every time. Only Enso Pearl £90 seems to have natural sounds .... don't know if anyone wants to manufacture a new one ??? Any skills here ??? But this item is expensive and looks not rugged. https://www.satnam.eu/enso-pearl-enso-clock-yoga-timer-meditation-clock-salubrion-p-3282.html Any other ideas ? I have no phone apps. Would be good to have timer with USB and custom sounds, like bird chirrup. This is Gymboss, seems rugged but smells of steroids and lycra : Edited January 7, 2019 by rideforever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pavel Karavaev Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) I have no idea about this, But I always use an alarm clock on my smartphone - for me this has always been enough. By the way, I found for myself that in ZZ it is better to not think about time at all. Edited January 14, 2019 by Pavel Karavaev Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LightShadowDao18 Posted January 14, 2019 The one I use is an app unfortunately but it works great and is very customizable. It is called "insight timer". It also offers guided meditations and community also. Worth the 5 bucks I think it was. Dharmacrafts.com also sells a nice one but believe its like $108 (which is crazy, I hope it makes a cup of coffee too...). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thelerner Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) I like Insight Timer too. Course having a smart speaker like Amazon Echo Dot or Google one, both around $35ish, mean you can set timers by voice. Speaking of ZZ, I like standing to Rawn Clarks Archaeous series, and the lessons are about 15 minutes long, so they act as a natural timer. I wonder if you could find 3 minute music segments, even better if they somehow relate the posture and string them together in a playlist. Might make for a pleasant experience. I suppose even the same 3 minute piece repeated a few times would act as a timer Edited January 14, 2019 by thelerner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
