The $35,000 'meditation pod' showing up at high-end spas makes the hardest part of meditation mind-blowingly easy
Meditation is a challenging but rewarding experience.
When I was in college, I used to meditate often, and found it was a highly effective way for me to quiet my stress and reset my mind.
But as I've made my way through the always-on world that we live in today, it's become a lot harder to find even 10 minutes to disconnect. There's always that nagging inner voice: what if that important person responded to your email?
That's why I was intrigued when I heard about the Somadome on a recent tour of CORE: Club, the ultra exclusive social club frequented by New York's elite.
The Somadome, a spaceship-like pod that retails for $35,000, promises to make meditation easy by enveloping users in a combination of LED color therapy, guided meditation, binaural beats, and energy healing.
I decided to give it a try.
