Remember To Remember is a simple app designed to
remind you to think about a phrase or idea on an
ongoing, regular basis. By bringing a thought to mind in
a consistent, disciplined way, RTR helps to establish a
rhythm and mindset that will help you change habits,
establish new ways of thinking, and otherwise transform
entrenched beliefs and persistent thought patterns.
This tool was developed to help meditators, spiritual
practitioners, addicts, biohackers and others to bring
their transformative practice off the cushion and into
their day-to- day life. Set the app to remind you every 10
minutes of ____________. You get one Tweet worth of
space for your reminder phrase or question.
For example, if you are trying to train yourself to be more
present in day-to- day life, you can use RTR to remind
you to, “feel you toes” or “take three mindful breaths.” Or
if you’re contemplating impermanence in your practice
you might want to enter, “Consider how all this will
change” or “I am going to die, how do I feel about that?”
For insight practice you might ask yourself, “What knows
this experience?”
Consistently reminding yourself and focusing earnestly
again and again on a particular phrase or question can
facilitate breakthrough insight and access to wisdom that
lies beyond intellectual understanding.
Effective practice can’t just be done on the meditation
cushion - it’s easy to be mindful when there are no
distractions. The trick is being able to maintain your
practice in the chaos of every day life. RTR is a tool that
can help you bring your practice off the cushion and into
day-to- day life.
It’s easy to forget what really matters, this app helps you
to remember to remember.
RTR works especially well with the Apple watch.
