Nighttime wellness events combine mindfulness with ambient illumination.
Rajasthan has implemented Desert Lantern Meditation, nighttime mindfulness sessions illuminated by lanterns in desert landscapes. According to Hindustan Times, participants follow guided breathing, meditation, and gentle stretches while enjoying serene starry vistas.
Attendees report reduced stress, increased focus, and heightened appreciation for natural beauty. Instructors provide safety measures, structured routines, and reflective exercises. Critics cite logistics and sand exposure, but organizers emphasize immersive wellness, cultural enrichment, and tourism promotion. Future expansions include full-moon meditations and lantern festival integration.
