Automatic mindfullness generator

(Sorry, mindfulness.) Okay, maybe this is a dumb idea, but I've been trying to be more mindful and self-aware throughout my everyday life, particularly recently as I have been both overeating and been easily overwhelmed by various work/career stresses. It's hard to remember to be mindful. Along the lines of the (10+2)*5 procrastination hack (search on 43folders if you don't know it) I've thought, what I want is a little, discrete automatic mindfulness reminder device. Look at this: The idea: small vibrating alarm timer that will go off every 15 minutes or so, that I can keep in my pocket or on my wrist or smth. like that. Dumb? Maybe. Anyone have any thoughts on this? 7 Comments

What is it you want...Submitted by noodle on December 13, 2006 - 2:37am.
What is it you want to be mindful of? Your varying moods throughout the day? How much you're eating and when? How much you're spending on certain tasks? Are you just looking for a timer which will remind you periodically throughout the day to close your eyes, take a deep breath & relax for a few seconds? » POSTED IN:
