Modern Meditation

Jelle Smidt

# “Listen to your inner voice by taking a seat.”

Take a cross-legged seat and experience your inner voice. This ergonomically designed chair acts as a soundboard for the human body. The throat sensor will amplify any mantra; the chair itself translates the sound into strong vibrations that enable you to feel it – corporeal hearing as they call it. Jelle Smidt added a touch of modern science to Buddhist chanting, to make meditation easier and explore one’s inner world. As each frequency addresses another body part, the introspective journey begins. Whether you are into Eastern philosophy or not: this is the place to find your own harmony and relax.
