About the Meditation Timer

Free online meditation timer for breathing, mindfulness, quiet sitting, and short reset breaks. Start a calm 10 minute timer with a gentle alarm — or mute it for silent practice.

TimerHub calculates remaining time from an absolute finish timestamp, so missed browser callbacks do not create drift. Read the timing accuracy methodology and reproducible tests.

Common Uses

  • Breathing exercises
  • Mindfulness practice
  • Quiet sitting
  • Reset breaks
  • Evening wind-down

How to Use the Meditation Timer

  • Press Start — or the Space bar — to run the 10 minute countdown. Space also pauses and resumes it; R resets it
  • Adjust by 1 minute with the +/- buttons while it runs, toggle Repeat to loop it, and check the finish time shown under the display
  • Use the Fullscreen control below the timer for a room-sized countdown (Esc to exit)
  • Choose or mute the alarm in the header's sound settings, and pick a background sound — rain, ocean, fireplace or brown noise — that fades out at zero
  • Enable notifications to be alerted when your meditation timer finishes in a background tab, and add ?autostart=1 to the link to start the countdown on load

Frequently Asked Questions

How long should I meditate as a beginner?

Start with 3 to 10 minutes. A short meditation timer you actually finish is better than a long session you avoid.

Can I use the timer without a loud alarm?

Yes. Use the sound control in the header to mute alarms if you want a silent visual timer.

Does this meditation timer work on mobile?

Yes. It works in mobile browsers, so you can use it on a phone or tablet without installing an app.
