Unique Takadanobaba meditation space gets a splash of cuteness to brighten up the deathly d\u00e9cor<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Meiso Kukan Kanoke-in<\/strong> is a relaxation space in downtown Tokyo\u2019s Takadanobaba<\/strong> neighborhood. It\u2019s a unique place, not just because it offers a spot for patrons to meditate or zone out for a while, but because they do so while lying down in coffins<\/strong> (kanoke<\/em> in Japanese).<\/p>\n As shown in the photo above, Meiso Kukan Kanoke-in has an array of Japanese-style coffins, and the staff invites guests to \u201cgaze at life through being conscious of death\u201d through their 30-minute coffin sessions. However, if the idea of lying in a box ordinarily meant for the dead is a little too morbid for you, Meiso Kukan Kanoke-in is now offering the opportunity to lie down in cute<\/em> coffins<\/strong>.<\/p>\n These cute caskets are the creations of Tokyograve<\/strong>, a coffin maker proving that, yes, Japanese designers really can make anything cute<\/a>. With their festive colors and accouterments, Tokyograve hopes to make the concept of inevitable death less grim and unsettling, and since that goal aligns very neatly with Meiso Kukan Kanoke-in\u2019s, the two have decided to team up. Once a month, five Tokyograve coffins will be available for use for Meiso Kukan Kanoke-in sessions, either for use by solo customers or for groups of friends who want to occupy up to all five simultaneously<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Satisfied customers of such \u201ccoffin experience\u201d events say they have come out of their sessions feeling unexpectedly positive and energetic<\/strong>, as ruminating on their eventual demise prompts big-picture realizations about the importance of treating others with kindness and being more cognizant of the positive aspects of their lives and capabilities. Note, however, that Meiso Kukan Kanoke-in still cautions that participants should be in good physical and mental health, however, and those suffering from depression or claustrophobia are recommended to abstain from coffin meditation sessions.<\/p>\n Tokyograve coffins will be available at Meiso Kukan Kanoke-in on the first Saturday of every month, with sessions starting at 11 a.m. and 2 and 5 p.m. Reservations can be made online here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Location information<\/strong> Source: PR Times<\/a><\/em> Unique Takadanobaba meditation space gets a splash of cuteness to brighten up the deathly d\u00e9cor.
