Weekend Design & Wellness Project

Meditation pillows, cushions and rugs are a comfortable way to prepare for a meditation of any length of time. This weekend, decided on what would make a great meditation pillow, cushion or rug for you.

First, look around the house to see if you already have something that could be used as a proper cushion. Consider creating your own cushion if you have basic sewing skills. If not, check out some of these affordable options…

Grounding Meditation

Grounding is a therapeutic practice of energetically connecting to the earth. Standing with bare feet in the grass, sand, dirt or pebbles directly connects the body with the earth.

Grounding reduces inflammation, blood pressure, stress and improves energy and sleep.

Here is a Grounding Meditation to calm anxiety, relax the mind and calibrate the body.

Om My Gong

A Harmonious blend of pranayama breathing and sound meditation healing

Yogini Kim and gong practitioner Michael O bring together these two calming practices taking the mind and body into a realm of healing and clarity.

Our world is full of stress, anxiety and negative vibrations, take time for yourself and clear the chatter. You and only you can begin this journey to a clear and uncluttered mind.

“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”

— Nikola Tesla

Music is a perfect example of how design/art and wellness come together. Instruments reach frequencies that tap into the human body on a cellular level. A balanced and healthy body resonates from 62-72MHz. DisEase begins when the frequency of the body is 60MHz and below. At lower frequencies the immune system is compromised and body becomes susceptible to a variety of DisEases. The gong is a powerful instrument that raises the frequency of the whole body and aids in healing cells vibrating at lower frequencies.

Here is your Weekend Design & Wellness Mission should you choose to accept it (accept it, you’ll love it)… take some time to explore the powerful and invigorating effects of meditative gong sessions created by Kim and Michael O.

Visit Om My Gong for insights on breathing, yoga, chakras and go on a sound journey on their YouTube channel. Be sure to share this with friends and family that need to take a bit of time to reset and recharge their mental state.
