It lasts for 50 minutes so I can time my sessions with clients. Came all the way from Spain (I’m in the US). Super excited to start using it tomorrow.

That's a really lovely bit of zebra wood.

What do you plan to use it for? It’s beautiful.

I am putting it in my office so that clients can see how much time is left in their session. I have a regular clock too, so this is more for aesthetics.

Well now that's not a fucking hourglass now, is it?

What kind of hourglass only lasts 50 minutes?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

The kind I need! It’s actually surprising how many of 50-min hourglasses are out there. I thought it would take forever to find one, but they are common for people whose sessions last 50 mins.

A sophisticated one that suits individual needs

A lazy one ;)

This is a brilliant idea! It's stylish, gorgeous and simple. Numbers and timing things can cause stress, but this is a stress free way of time managing things

If it's only 50 minutes, is it really an hourglass?

This is super cool, thanks for sharing. You've reminded me that I wanted to make or buy an hourglass — visual timers are useful if you have ADHD like me

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I have ADHD too! I have a little timer that’s very visual, and it really helps.

Mind sharing more about this very visual timer? What does it look like, what's it called?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 19 hours ago

This is what it looks like - I got it on Amazon (guilty as charged). I really love the rainbow. Gives me a nice visual cue.

Ooh she's pretty!
