The contemporary lifestyle is busy and stressful, and further stimulated by the Internet. 'Do Nothing for 2 Minutes' is one website that encourages fast-paced lives to slow down for 120 seconds.

Developed by Alex Tew, this online mini-meditation page plays the sound of ocean waves and calms you with the view of a serene seascape.
