Contemplative Glossary

Here are my suggestions for mobile meditation apps:

• Simple Meditation Timer (Apple only) — a basic no-nonsense timer with three bells before and after.  You can integrate it with Apple's health app to record your "mindfulness minutes" if you want to track yourself.
  
  
• Mindfulness Coach (Apple & Android) — This is a solid app, developed by the US Dept of Veterans Affairs' National Center for PTSD. It offers a series of lessons and exercises, including a basic meditation timer and progress-tracker as well.  The Apple version also integrates with the Health app.
