Common questions about taking mindful breaks with triday
Yes! triday is completely free to use. We believe in making mindful practices accessible to everyone, so there are no hidden fees or premium features - everything is available to all users at no cost.
The afternoon pause is a mindful break in your day to check in with yourself. It's a moment to step back, assess your progress, and reconnect with your intentions. This feature helps prevent autopilot mode and ensures you're moving in the direction that matters most to you.
While afternoon is suggested, you can take your pause whenever you feel you need to reset or realign. Many find it helpful to pause after lunch or during a natural break in their day. The key is choosing a time when you can give yourself a few minutes of undivided attention.
A pause can be as short as 2-3 minutes or as long as you need. The quality of attention matters more than the duration. Even a brief, intentional pause can help you recenter and refocus on what's important.
During your pause, check in with your morning priorities, notice how you're feeling, and assess if your energy is aligned with what matters most. It's also a chance to make mindful adjustments to your priorities if needed.
While meditation often focuses on clearing the mind or observing thoughts, the triday pause is more about intentional reflection and realignment. It's a practical tool for staying connected with your priorities and making conscious choices about where to direct your energy.
That's completely normal! There's no pressure to pause every day. The feature is there to support you when you need it, not to create another obligation. You might find it helpful to set a gentle reminder or link it to an existing habit like having lunch.
Absolutely! While triday suggests one main pause, you can use this feature whenever you need to recenter. Some people find it helpful to take mini-pauses throughout their day, especially during transitions between activities or before important moments.
