recently after countless doctors and
failed attempts at making myself any
better I began to turn to healing more
naturally I've taken a newfound interest
in energy medicine yoga and different
forms of meditation in which you can
connect with your mind and your body so
I researched what Tokyo had to offer in
terms of energy healing and finding
peace
[Music]
we're going to a meditation studio
because I reached out to them this is
not sponsored I wanted to come to their
studio and practice I'm not sure how I'm
going to film this but we're gonna
attempt it we're gonna go there just
because I wanted to try something
different and I think they have English
there so if you're interested and we
like it then I'll link everything down
below medico was one of the research
studios in tokyo and their classes are
available in both English and Japanese
[Music]
we arrived at the studio and was asked
to take our shoes and socks off first
[Music]
we were then taken to a room where she
explained to how we would prepare a
meditation practice and what the meaning
of each task was
[Music]
but hey guys we're at the minute uh
meditation studio here in hope this andö
actually it's not that far away I
thought it was going to be a little bit
part of their way but it's such a
relaxing area so I'm really pleased to
come to what they send out to experience
this today so we just actually got
finished with our meditation and I just
kind of wanted to talk a little bit like
running through what we just did so you
can make an appointment online
reservation online I'll link everything
down below but it was a very very
relaxing experience so I'm really happy
to have come so this hallway right here
is where you start there's two rooms
there's one here and this is a very very
bright room and then the one at the very
end of the hallway is a dark room see on
the ceiling it kind of resembles stars
so it's very relaxing there's some
cushions in there and here it's just
literally a white room I can't go inside
because we are not allowed to but if you
open this up you can kind of see this is
very heavy they can kind of see how
bright like anyway to you know talk did
it so isn't that crazy and it feels like
you're walking into like heaven this is
what the room actually looked like when
you walked in it was intense but the
vibrations and sounds you can hear in
the room really opened up our senses
which is what this meditation was all
about so we walked in here and there's
sounds you can hear very distinct sounds
like vibrations and it's supposed to
kind of prepare you from the actual
meditation and then you walk down here
and you walk in that we couldn't see
anything but so you have to have your
eyes of just a little bit but you're
able to see pretty quickly after maybe
like a couple minutes yeah so it's kind
of like stars and cushions and all that
stuff in here you can't see anything
because it's dark so you kind of have to
go back back and forth similar to a
sauna she said so if you've ever been in
a sauna you can't
in and out like cold hot cold hot it's
supposed to kind of strengthen the
immune system but I think this is kind
of too like to strengthen the mind in a
way after you leave this space that
you're doing this for about like I don't
know 20 minutes or so and then after
that you can go into this room which is
the meditation room so we all like moved
in here you can't hear it's very like
soundproof in here so you walk in here
and then you sit down on one of these
cushions and you can do a guided
meditation so we did one in English you
can do an English guided meditation so
we sat here and we have the essential
oil that she told us to put on our wrist
which smells really really good so open
this up and it's very beautiful lots of
little flowers in here and it's just a
little vial and then you put a couple
drops on your wrist
they give us a little blanket here on
the side so that was very comfortable so
I put that on my lap and then Yuji sat
next to me so we had a little meditation
session so it was 30 minutes long for
the meditation and it was all in English
like I said so you can choose English or
Japanese a woman that was helping us she
was sitting on the other side of the
room doing it with us that was really
Pleasant and after our 30-minute
meditation we headed to the next room
the architecture was created by a famous
artist from Calcutta and had an earthy
vibe the great thing about the studio is
that you can make an appointment for
yourself or with a group the price for
an 80 minute meditation practice is
8,000 yen it's a bit pricey but an
exciting experience if you're into
healing and connecting with yourself in
a unique environment
[Music]
after our 30-minute focus we were led to
the Tea Room where we chose our own
Japanese tea cups and seat to enjoy
traditional Japanese Sencha tea the
water was lit with a small candle and
the tea leaves were ready to pour in
this base is meant to further relax your
body and feed it something good you say
come in here so when you come after the
meditation you have tea so we have a
bunch of different colored tea cups here
and we get to choose our favorite color
so ours are missing we chose two and
then we took our tea cup all the way to
one of the seats so you can choose any
of these seats here and we stopped
actually over here here I'll show you a
better one this is probably a better one
so you have tea leaves here and then you
can put it into this already hot water
cup and it's already hot I love this
little thing I actually want this
there's an incense or some incense here
that you've burned first and you put it
in to this little box and then when it
finishes burning that's that means your
session is over so we had some tea we
put our tea cup here and poured some tea
had some Japanese snacks and we just
relaxed a little bit longer and it's
Sencha tea Yugi what did you think about
it so yeah this place is absolutely
gorgeous it's so beautiful
so it was about 80 minutes and we did
everything it was very flowing so I
enjoyed it very much and I think you tea
enjoyed it very much I've meditated a
lot before so I think usually you have
to so we kind of knew what to do and we
recognized the whole like process if you
guys aren't interested in finding a
place to relax especially in Tokyo Tokyo
is so busy and you know there's a lot of
people that are working and it's just
kind of crazy no it doesn't feel like
this is in Tokyo
I would love a room like this in my
apartment but um yeah I think if you
really really want to find someplace to
kind of relax and just unwind at this is
great especially for those of you who
don't speak Japanese like they do have
English so you don't to worry and yeah
so if you're interested I'll link
