With rising global health issues, stressful work life balance, the need for mental health is ever more important. Meditation is proven to improve cognition, relaxation, and mental-well-being. Currently, there are only digital solutions for this extremely important problem of the physical world. iDiya is a wellness device that offers a 3-pronged approach to relaxation. This is the first of its kind to incorporate all-sensory perception to create a comfortable space of mental well-being.

iDiya comes with a multitude of features that users can employ in various combinations to customise their experience. One can choose light patterns like Bonfire, Rainbow and Northern Lights. Soft music can be streamed from any smartphone. Nature inspired scent blocks can be easily placed into the iDiya scent tray. Users can choose between using iDiya as a small lamp or a taller candle, thanks to attachments of various heights with magnetic snaps. In just 3 steps, one can create a space of relaxation to focus on the scintillating light play, listen to birds chirping, with the scent of fresh lemon grass wafting through the air.

iDiya is a first-of-its kind wellness device. It is not just a lamp or a candle or a speaker or a scent diffuser. iDiya is greater than the sum of it's parts. A never-seen-before fusion of various relaxation methodologies, combined into a softly rounded, spectacularly designed product resulted in iDiya. It fits perfectly into the user's palm and represents a road to relaxation. We wanted to bring to life a multi-sensorial experience that allows the user to embark on the soothing journey of exploring mindfulness.
We have used recycled plastic, natural fragrances sourced responsibly and energy efficient LEDs with a battery capacity of over a week on a single charge. Designed to be repaired and upgraded, the product life cycle is timeless. Instead of creating products that end up in landfills in a matter of days, we designed iDiya as an experiential product that embeds itself onto the user with just a 10 minute session, allowing them to experience an elevated sense of well-being throughout the day.
