4方法冥想时,你不能把你的大脑Off

Communal meditation jump-starts your practice, but we know—it can feel creepy to sit on the floor with your eyes closed in a room full of strangers. That awkwardness goes away in a sound bath, in which large gemstone and crystal bowls, chimes and gongs are struck or vibrated to create gentle tones specially sequenced to do everything from loosen your muscles to cleanse electro-magnetic frequencies generated by constant cell phone usage. Try the Saturday night sound baths atDen Meditation, where busy-busy Angelenos lie down and let go.

Physical pleasure and meditation: two great tastes that taste great together? That’s the idea behind orgasmic meditation, a practice where a partner, um, manually stimulates you for 15 minutes. According to its boosters atOnetaste, the company that teaches the practice, it’s supposed to enable you to feel greater connection, empathy and generosity. Think of it this way: After investigating the practice during a day-long workshop in Venice, you’ll either have an exciting new spiritual practice or one heck of a cocktail party story.

Feel too keyed up to sit down and breathe deeply? Avail yourself of the glam dosist dose pen and its cannabis calm formula—the low-THC and high-CBD formula means you’ll be more relaxed than euphoric, so you can settle down without fear of being too woozy.
