Frequently Asked Questions
Can a timer actually help with anxiety?
For many people, yes. Anxiety often comes from uncertainty — not knowing how long something will take. A timer provides a clear, visible boundary.
What if 25 minutes feels too long?
Then make it shorter. There's no rule that says you have to use 25 minutes. Try 10 or 15 minutes.
What should I do if I feel overwhelmed during a session?
Pause. Take a few slow breaths. You can stop the timer at any time — it's a tool, not an obligation.
