OpenSeed's high-tech meditation pods are designed for meditation in the workplace, offering serene, fully enclosed places for people to enjoy a few moments of calm and clarity. The pods are not just useful for minimizing external distractions and offering a place to meditate but have the potential to help boost focus and productivity with lighting and aromatherapy.

Inside an isolated pod, people can expect to enjoy a range of guided meditations and sound therapies, and tailor their experience by adjusting the volume and brightness, and selecting a scent of their choice. Some of the available audio meditations for the workplace include seven-minute deep breathing sessions, visualizations and exercises that promote relaxation and awareness.
