For more mindfulness in the workplace

The manufacturer "ROOM" has redesigned the telephone booth. "Calm Booth" does not have a telephone, nor is it on the street. But it gives you a quiet space - without costing you anything.

If you thought phone booths were a thing of the past, you'd be wrong. The American company "ROOM" is now bringing them back. They are not located in public spaces, but in covered open-plan offices so that you can relax in them.

Meditation is a way to find balance when stress levels are high. However, retreats for undisturbed meditation are usually lacking in open-plan offices. The redesigned telephone booth provides a place for such needs. You don't need coins to use it. But your employer will need the necessary change. A single telephone booth from ROOM costs around 4200 francs.

Progress or regression?
