What is Cocoon ?

Cocoon is a sensory connected object that invites to meditation through a ritual set by the user. It creates an atmosphere mixing olfactory, luminous and haptic ambience with the aim of sensorially catching as many profiles as possible and of conditioning the atmosphere to establish a space and a moment favorable to meditation.

Scenario

The principle of Cocoon is to establish daily meditations to be more rigorous in practice and thus to preserve the benefits of meditation. The light and diffusion of Cocoon essential oils lets you know when a session is about to begin.

During meditation, a guided meditation of your favorite app can be listened to. Take Cocoon in your hands, watch its light turn on and off at a rhythm of breathing called heart consistency. Then close your eyes and inhale and exhale following the pulsations. Cocoon can easily find its place in your room, on your bedside table or in any place where you like to meditate.
