Installation
The installation was simple and there were no problems. You install the software, plug the biofeedback device (light stone) into an available USB port and you're done. Lastly you register the software and then you are ready to begin your "Inner-Adventure".
The Game
When you start the game you will be awestuck as you are lead through a beautiful introduction where Sophia, one of your mentors, explains what your journey will entail. The graphics are breathtaking. I was amazed at the creativity and attention to detail in the world that I was immersed in. I lowered the lights in the room and was transported to a mythical fantasy world. Yes, very cool.
Throughout your journey you are instructed to manipulate your surroundings using breath, relaxation and meditation techniques. You don't realize it, but you are absorbing teachings that will enable you to control your body-mind connection and manipulate your energy.
There are over 40 different "events" or challenges to complete as you explore this stunning world. You will travel through a mythical world complete with sacred temples, magnificent palaces, and enhanting landscapes. All the while, beautiful, peaceful music surrounds you further enhancing the relaxing effect you will experience.
What kind of "events" will I complete?Here are a few:
- To enter into the garden, you must get a pinwheel to spin. You are instructed to breath deep, again...WOW it's spinning!
- While in the garden your meditation mentor instructs you in the art of levitation. Your goal is to levitate a sphere. All the while, you are gently instructed and encouraged. Slowly the ball will rise.
- Can you control the billows used to fan a fire in a fireplace? In a peaceful cottage you learn to control your environment by controlling your energy.
The many mentors you encounter on your journey will teach you techniques like the "Heart Breath". These techniques allow you to increase, decrease or synchronize your body rhythms and in turn master the "events" encountered. The new knowledge you acquire will enhance your well-being and growth forever.
An interesting story
As I was deep into the journey, my 5 year old startled me and insisted that I let him "play". How could I say no! He was completely taken
by it. He spent over 40 minutes exploring and learning. Can you imagine if you started to learn to meditate and control
your mind/body connection at that age? This is not only effortless learning, but fun learning. All ages will be delighted with Journey to Wild Divine.
I can't say enough about this game and I call it a game lightly. It is a wonderful self growth tool hidden in a game.
If you have always wanted to learn to meditate but have found it difficult to quiet your mind, this is the key you have been looking for. If you are an experienced meditator then you will have fun too! Access your inner being, learn to control your mind all while playing a game. The real benefit is that the lessons you learn during gameplay will become invaluable tools that you will use in everyday life. Watch your stress levels drop and joy fill every corner of your life. It just doesn't get any better than this.
If you have kids I urge you to look seriously at this. When you see your child engaged in an adventure that is building skills he/she will use for a lifetime, you will know you have made the right choice.
This is a must have tool for your journey! The Journey to Wild Divine
