Show HN: Selfime, a cassette-style recorder for meditations in your own voicehttps://selfime.com

Hi HN! I built Selfime after reading a few books that suggested recording messages or exercises to yourself and listening back.

You know what’s happening in your life and what those words mean to you. For me it feels closer to a guided journal of sorts that you can listen back to. For the keeping engaged part, the app uses a cassette/…
