🏞A refreshing and therapeutic event to sooth the souls of us Web3 warriors…

We absolutely melted for this Web3 Wellness Experience at Art Basel last Friday. It was an intersection of art, tech, and wellness, along with immersive wellness experiences like breathwork, sound healing, vitamin shots, wellness shots, and juices. Participants enjoyed fantastical live experiences like plant music—where frequencies from vegetation, flowers and mushrooms are utilized to generate interactive experiences with nature. Violinist and DJ Yerahm Paul Lee entertained guests with binaural beats. And so much more. Oh my!

Special thanks to our very special partner Shira Lazar, as well as Jordana Reim of Peace Inside Live who co-created this event.

The event was also produced in collaboration with Weosh, SheBlooms, Prjct, Self Love Club, Infinite Spaces and Art Botanica
