With all the distractions of modern life, sometimes it feels extremely difficult to
think straight or to get some peace and quiet.
We’re constantly under pressure from work and all our other daily complications, and
often we forget to sit still and take a deep breath.
With high-pressure jobs it can also sometimes be difficult to get a consistent seven or
eight hours sleep per night, which is the recommended time scale.
A well-rested brain is pivotal to a day of efficient and high-standard work.
Hi everyone, I'm Rhonda lee, and I'll be your host for this video.
Here are 10 Pod Beds and Sleep Chambers that could improve your health and wellbeing.
From the outside, this "Perceptual Pod" looks like a futuristic egg capsule, but inside
it is so much more.
The Transport is fitted with a comfy temperature-controlled
waterbed, as well as subwoofers for sound vibration.
The waterbed creates a weightless and stress-free
environment for your body, with the speakers
providing some peaceful background noise to your rest.
The design is a mixture of the infinite space
found in the desert, and a womb-like space.
This environment, along with the comfort, temperature, sound, and colorful light, the
Transport will send you into the most blissful of sleeps.
The Pod is designed for one or two people,
and comes with optional custom features such
as mobile lighting control, hidden compartments and a memory foam bed.
The CocoOne is designed to be the first-class version of the sleep chambers.
The exterior looks like a beautiful sea shell, and the designers call it ‘like protective
hands’ surrounding you as you rest.
The panels on either side can open to uncover two thirds of the reclining area within, if
you desire to open yourself up to the elements.
However, when closed, the doors provide shade, privacy, and an element of noise reduction
for a peaceful sleep, read, or just relaxation.
The CocoOne is designed as a relaxation lounge fit for one or two people.
Relaxing in style!
You can see why this one has first-class in the title!
Have you ever been stuck in the airport waiting for your flight for hours?
Maybe they announced a huge delay to take off as soon as you arrived?
The GoSleep Sleep Pods are designed to comfort you in these particular times of need.
A sleek and simple design, the Pods are perfect for comfortable seating, or private sleeping
chambers for passing the time away.
Much preferred to the old-fashioned ‘curl up in a ball on the floor on top of a coat’
method.
These relaxation solutions have already been rolled out in Tallinn Airport, Helsinki, and
Abu Dhabi.
Prepare to see them pop up in airports near you, as the designs, have proved very popular.
I'm Allie and it's Mind's Eye Trivia time.
Are you looking at just these images?
Do you know what this is, or where it's from?
Leave the correct answer, or you're best guess in the comment section below.
Imagine sunbathing in the shallow ocean in a warm, toasty foreign island.
Now imagine that without the huge yearly costs and annoying children running around the hotel.
The exterior looks like a space ship from the future, and the interior creates a polished,
varnished calming white vessel for warmth and relaxation.
Just add water, hop in, and bathe the time away with the top open, or closed for privacy.
The I-Sopod was first launched in 2009, and it was the first of its kind to be called
a pod, to have an all-white interior, a wide easy access entrance, color therapy LED lighting,
1-micron filtration, and a flow-through heater.
The I-Sopod paved the way for a new kind of water-based pod design, and has inspired many
different brands and inventions to this day.
An upgrade on the usual Dream Pod design, the Stealth version incorporates a cool black
polished finish to absorb 97.5% of the visible light spectrum.
Once filled with water, the Stealth provides a light-free relaxation experience, perfect
for those lazy days where sunlight prevents you from napping comfortably.
The Pod is built-in with a hidden passive air circulation system, as well as anti-slip
flooring, temperature retention, and sound proofing technology.
Other versions of the Dream Pod are available, including the Flagship, one of the most popular
on the market; the Max, for multiple people; the Sport, for health care; and the Floatcabin,
a huge rectangular version.
It’s fair to say that The Dream Pod have just about your every need covered with their
wide range of products.

Let us know in the comments below!
The NeoQi - Dream is a spaceship design aimed at rehabilitation and health improvements.
The Dream was designed specifically for classical SPA rituals and body shape correction.
The pod can improve blood circulation, cellulite reduction, stress relief and rejuvenation.
It is also said to have a positive impact on the user’s overall health.
Relaxation with added health benefits, the NeoQi Dream was aimed at body care treatments
in beauty salons or spas.
It includes an infrared sauna, steam sauna, aroma therapy, Vichy shower, vibrating treatment
table, colored lights, music system, face cooling fan, and a hand shower.
The Orrb Pod was designed by Lee McCormack, with the aim to sell units to airports, universities
and public spaces.
The Orrb is a disk-shaped capsule with a single lounge seat within.
Fresh air is filtered through the pod for a relaxing feel, as well as noise cancellation
to reduce outside disturbance.
The Orrb is fitted with a screen directly in front of the seated user, and displays
a series of exercises and meditation.
Users are required to set up an online account through which they can choose their personal
relaxation/exercise program.
The Orrb also offers a variety of self-development and learning modules.
Designers say the Pod is made to train your brain to perform at its best, including improved
focus, impulse control, responses, and efficiency under stress.
The Somadome is - A state-of-the-art sleep chamber combined with color therapy.
The Somadome uses the color spectrum, as well as a feeling of infinite space to promote
healing within your body and mind.
The Somadome is unique to many other pods on the market, as it revolves around the science
of color.
For example, the color white is said to promote balance,
increase harmony, and contribute towards overall healing.
Violet stimulates immunity and transformation, green inner peace, dark blue cooling and calming,
and turquoise promotes balance and relaxation.
Colors create electrical impulses in our brains which can trigger, thoughts, feelings and
bodily reactions.
The Somadome uses that to provide a unique relaxation experience for the user.
Externally, the ITW is based on a futuristic-looking
cocoon of the silkworm, which already promotes
a feeling of peace and comfort.
The lightweight dome is elegant and completely surrounds the inner wellness lounge for privacy
and relaxation away from the outside world.
The designers say the Cocoon itself promotes
an atmosphere of seclusion, and an almost
weightless feeling of comfort.
The ITW includes a water mattress to create this floating feeling, as well as relieving
your muscles form any stress.
Gentle lighting is included on the inner membrane once closed to create a therapeutic experience
for the user.
The Cocoon is designed to whisk you away from your stressful day-to-day life and to float
you above the clouds as a relaxing escape.
The Sleepbox, much like one of our earlier pods, began life as a rentable relaxation
zone for people waiting for long durations in airports.
However, before long, the Sleepbox grew a life of its own and proved to be popular in
many different locations.
You pay $30 per hour to rest within the confines of the comfy mini bedroom, or you can pay
$100 to stay the entire night, which isn’t a bad price depending on your location and
situation.
Much like a hotel, you can make an online reservation and check in upon arrival.
The individual rooms cover 40 square feet each, and come in single or double bed variations.
You also receive shared access to bathroom and shower facilities, making this quite a
unique design.
The beauty about this particular pod is, as the name suggests, the box can pretty much
be set up anywhere.
So far, units have been set up in Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport, Stockholm, and more
will open soon in Washington Dulles Airport, downtown Boston with plans for Atlanta.
The designers have now rolled out the Office Sleepbox two, featuring a different, more
compact and basic design with a space to sleep and even a desk to work at.
This could be a solution to those office all-nighters.
There you have it, ten remarkably unique and amazing Pod Beds
and Sleep Chambers for improved health and well being.
Whether its isolation, peace and quiet, a different experience, or a helpful hotel alternative.
These inventions can supply you with some of the best night sleeps you've ever had.
I'm Rhonda Lee, and until next time.
- Touch your heart;
Close your eyes; Make a wish and say good night!
