Meditation Cabin
“The act of silent meditation can be a daunting prospect for many people, those used to the constant communication of modern life. However the benefits of silent meditation are ideal for those who experience high levels of stress, or those with a hectic lifestyle. It allows for a greater understanding of yourself by developing a more effective coping strategy for managing stress levels. Escaping the constant bombardment of media updates, emails and phone calls allows for a drastic increase in effective concentration and a wider perspective. Allowing you time to re-focus on yourself and your immediate surroundings, silent meditation also forces you to talk less and listen more, effectively improving your communication skills and challenging yourself in a whole new way.
Create a cabin that could be replicated in any number of spots throughout a forest. The cabin’s main purpose is to help guests enjoy silent meditation, where the only sounds they would hear would be the sounds of nature. The cabin should have sufficient area for guests to meditate, write, draw, or create using materials found in nature, allowing them to let go of the external world and reconnect with their souls in nature’s wild perfection. The silent meditation cabins would need to be able to accommodate just a single person, and offer them basic and humble living conditions.”
