See the meditation space.
01
Entering
Your meditation experience starts when you walk in the door, with lights, scents, and music set to welcome you inside. Remove shoes and any unnecessary clothes, and take a seat.
02
Grounding
Settle into the meditation space and find a comfortable position. Instructions on tablet guide you into the initial breathing exercises and meditations, separating your mindspace from all outside noise.
03
Deepening
Once settled, the experience will move you deeper into a trance, slowing your brainwaves. Your focus will move fully internal.
04
Visualizing
You will call up your goals and intentions. Using your imagination, your brain will feel the sensations of goal achievements just like your body will. Visualizing leads to manifesting.
05
Emptying
Slowing your brain waves further, the final phase is to sit in a state beyond words. Only pure experience of Being. It is rare – enjoy it.
06
Returning
The instructions patiently bring you back up from the deep. Reflect on your experience, record notes on what you saw and felt.
