Virtual Meditation Experiences

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

These Guided Meditations are Enhanced with Virtual Reality Tech

— July 12, 2016 — Tech
There's certainly no shortage of guided meditations online, especially as many consumers now see spiritual practices as an extension of their health routines. These guided meditations often take the form of audio files that are sometimes accompanied by relaxing visuals, but Guided Meditation VR sets itself apart from the rest by putting virtual reality technology to use. Guided Meditation VR is a relaxation app for the Gear VR—and soon, the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive—that provides a completely immersive and relaxing environment for meditation.

Although there are many apps that have helped to bring meditation into the mainstream, many people are still intimidated by the idea of having to sit down quietly and stay with their thoughts. Guided Meditation VR encourages people to ease into meditation without having to keep their eyes shut.
Trend Themes
1. Virtual Reality Meditation - Using virtual reality to enhance the meditation experience can create new opportunities for relaxation and spiritual practices.
2. Mainstream Meditation Apps - As more consumers recognize the benefits of meditation, there is an opportunity to create accessible and user-friendly apps to aid in this practice.
3. Integrating Guided Meditation Into Health Routines - As consumers seek to incorporate more wellness practices into their daily lives, there is a growing opportunity to integrate guided meditations into health and fitness routines.
Industry Implications
1. Virtual Reality - The intersection of virtual reality technology and spiritual practices presents an opportunity for growth and innovation in the VR industry.
2. Meditation Apps - Developing user-friendly and accessible meditation apps for mainstream audiences presents an opportunity for growth in the app development industry.
3. Health and Wellness - As consumers place more importance on maintaining and improving their overall health, there is a growing opportunity to integrate guided meditation into the health and wellness industry.
