Elements

Background

For thousands of years, mankind has been looking to nature for inspiration, motivation and relaxation. Connecting with nature allows man to disconnect from the internet, and connect with the Inner-net. On the path of self experience, nature supports a man's wellbeing by providing a meditative experience. The aim of this immersive experience is to allow human beings to naturally align themselves with the elements of nature, the experience of which can be enhanced through the activity of meditation.
