Meditation in 60 seconds — for days with no time to spare.
StillMind is a meditation app for people who don’t have 20 minutes. A guided short meditation takes one minute here: open the app, follow the breathing circle, carry on calmer. Usable without an account, no ads — and the Base plan is free.
What is it?
What is a short meditation?
A short meditation is a mindfulness exercise of one to five minutes. Instead of sitting still for a long time, you rest your attention on one thing — usually the breath — for a brief, clearly bounded moment. The principle is the same as in any meditation: notice that your thoughts have wandered and gently return.
The breath leads
In StillMind the breath is your anchor. A circle grows and shrinks and you breathe with it. The app does the counting — your mind can let go.
One minute is enough
One minute you do every day beats 20 minutes you give up after a week. If you want more, Pro lets you choose freely between 1 and 10 minutes.
No experience needed
You don’t need to “know how to meditate”. No lotus position, no empty mind. If you can breathe, you can start.
Your first meditation takes 60 seconds.

Try it now
One minute. Right here.
Sit comfortably, let your shoulders drop and follow the circle: it grows as you inhale and shrinks as you exhale. Choose the technique that feels right for now. In the app, sound and haptics are added.
For every moment
Meditation that fits your day.
StillMind doesn’t ask how much time you have but what you need right now. You pick a focus path and the app picks the matching exercise.
A clear start
One minute after waking, before your phone sets the tone. Focus path “A break in your day” or “Work with more focus”.
Short meditation: how it works → In betweenReset between meetings
When your head is full: “Reduce stress” or “Wind down emotionally”. In acute moments, SOS mode helps with one tap.
Stop the carousel of thoughts → EveningWind down
The focus path “Fall asleep better” and the “Evening ritual” programme wind you down. Premium Life adds the sleep mode with 20 minutes of guided breathing.

How to start
Three steps to your daily minute.
- 01
Get the app
Free on the App Store. You don’t need an account — signing in is optional.
- 02
Pick a fixed moment
After waking, before your first meeting or in bed. A reminder helps you stick with it.
- 03
Breathe for 60 seconds
Follow the circle, done. Once it’s a habit you can extend — but you don’t have to.
Is StillMind a meditation app?
Yes — with a deliberately narrow focus. StillMind offers guided short meditations on the breath: you follow a breathing circle, usually for 60 seconds. There are no long courses, talks or sleep stories. More on the Meditation in 60 seconds page.
Do I need to know how to meditate to use StillMind?
No. You need no prior knowledge, no special posture and no empty mind. The breathing circle sets the rhythm and you breathe along. Wandering thoughts are normal — returning is the practice.
Are 60 seconds of meditation really enough?
To get started, yes. One minute of slow breathing noticeably lowers pulse and tension. The larger effects studies show for meditation come from regular practice over weeks — and one minute is the dose most people actually manage daily. With Pro you can extend to up to 10 minutes.
Does StillMind help with falling asleep?
There is the focus path “Fall asleep better”, 4-7-8 breathing and the “Evening ritual” programme. The sleep mode with 20 minutes of guided breathing, in which the rhythm gradually slows, is part of Premium Life. For persistent sleep problems this does not replace seeing a doctor.
