(video: 3:52min) Live from the Resting Room, brought to you by the genius of the Hive, interior designers, sound artists Tom Middleton & Musicstyling, life coach Patrick Wenko and I… We’ve all collaborated to create this space perfect for resting, refreshing, coaching and meditation.
…and hypnosis if you wish.
What’s the difference? How do you know if you’re hypnotizing yourself or meditating?
The simple answer is, are you aware of yourself? If you’re aware of yourself, your thoughts & emotions and all you are projecting onto the situation then you are meditating.
Here is what Tom Middleton has to say about his Bioharmonic Surround Soundscapes that he has contributed to the Resting Room:
“Thrilled to be partnering with The Hive, Musicstyling, Nexus, Elena and Mariko to showcase a brand new immersive multi-sensory innovation in the co-working sector to help optimise productivity and improve workplace mindfulness and wellbeing.
Sonux is proud to be supplying bespoke, mindful, holistic, complimentary bioharmonic surround soundscapes. Programmed to gently transport you away for between 20 minutes and an hour depending on the type of program*. Deliberately inducing the body to settle, relax and encourage deep, slow respiration such as Pranayama and Ujjayi breathing techniques to decelerate brainwave activity and reducing cortisol production for a state of calm, focus and clarity.”
“The RestingRoom concept is a welcome solution in a fast paced workplace environment, whether it’s for a power nap, on trend ‘nappuccino’, meditation session, or simply some timeout to clear the mind and kickstart the creative flow.
Select a program on the iPad, get comfortable, and float away in a bath of sound!”
(*recommended duration for a sleep cycle optimised power nap.)
