The Soma Mat and Breathing Light

The experience of using the prototypes Soma Mat and Breathing Light, designed with a somaesthetic approach to support a meditative bodily introspection, are presented. We present the experience of using the prototypes Soma Mat and Breathing Light. These are designed with a somaesthetic approach to support a meditative bodily introspection. We use light and heat as modalities to subtly guide participants to turn their gaze inwards, to their own bodies. People trying our prototypes reports on a feeling of relaxation, softer movements, and an increased awareness of their own breathing.
