In the quick pace of today’s society, stress seems to have lodged itself into all of our daily lives.
Whether you are stressed from work, for school, or just the noise of the world that surrounds you, we often times look for that moment of calmness.
If you have a television at home – it does not have to be just a means of entertainment, it can instead be a meditation studio of sorts.
With the right applications and the right setup and/or accessories, your TV can stream free meditation and mindfulness exercises – and, meditation and mindfulness studios – that look and feel just like in a studio!
Let’s take a look at how we can convert our living rooms into meditation and mindfulness rooms now, and for the future.
- Choose the Correct Meditation App for your Smart TV
Most modern Smart TVs come equipped with appstores with wellness-based platforms like YouTube, Calm, Headspace, Insight Timer, or Stanlee TV based guided meditation channels.
Look for:
- High audio and video quality immersion
- Different meditation types – mindfulness, breathwork, sleep meditation, guided visualization
- Different session times (from a quick 5 minutes, to deeper, 45 minutes)
SEO TIP – Search “best TV Meditation Apps” on your TV App store for trending tools to use.
- Make a Distraction-Free Space
Make a distraction free space
There is nothing like the visual invitation of a large TV as you listen to relaxing background music to compliment your meditation experience — however, it only works if your space allows for it.
- Dim the lights or use warm lamps if you have them.
- Keep your phones silent.
- Place your yoga mat or chair away from the TV but not too far.
To further support your vibe, consider using wireless soundbars along with your Stanlee TV to give you sound quality like never before.
- Try Live-Stream Meditation Sessions
In addition to pre-recorded videos, you can take part in live-streaming meditation sessions on your TV. You will have this experience:
- Real time interaction with trainers
- A camaraderie and sense of motivation
- To explore mindfulness practices from all over the world
Some Stanlee-compatible platforms also provide multilingual instructional help if you are into Hindi, English or other regional languages.
- Create a Family Wellness Practice
Meditation does not have to be something you do alone. You may want to create an opportunity for other family members to also engage in the practice by:
- One of the family members could also wake up in the morning and engage in a short breathing exercise on TV – another person could engage with guided breath practice, as well.
- At the end of the day, any family could settle down with family messages of gratitude follow a guided session or video.
- Every weekend afternoon you could set a time aside and spend as much time as you like on being mindful – perhaps longer sessions.
You’ll be transforming your TV from being just another screen used for mindless leisure, to an active screen that nurtures the group’s wellbeing.
- Integrating TV Meditation and Wearable Technology
Suppose you are also equipped with a smartwatch or activity tracker. Simply allow it to link your heart rate and stress levels during the session you are doing on the TV. You’ll be able to:
- Track your progress with relaxation techniques
- Adapt your breathing patterns to real time biofeedback
- Form a new, consistent practice and habit for mental wellness.
Last Thoughts: Your TV is your wellness partner
If you don’t need to feel guilty about watching another episode of your show, knowing you can also use parts of your TV’s time (and also your time), then why not get your mental clarity, emotional balance or stress-free living, and have your TV as a companion?
At Stanlee India we make tech for a lifestyle.
Our Smart TVs were made for entertainment, but they were also made for you to live a healthier lifestyle.
So enjoy them fully!
Whether you watch/tune into your shows, or you meditate by the atomic time clock under an animated virtual Himalayan sunrise, your TV is not just for your mind, it’s for your soul now too.
Stay Tuned, Stay Connected
