    *Describing the AmaZen booths, it said: "During shifts employees can visit AmaZen stations and watch short videos featuring easy-to-follow well-being activities, including guided meditations, positive affirmations, calming scenes with sounds."

    In the now-deleted Twitter video, the pod can be seen to have just enough room for a chair, small computer table against one wall, and a few small potted plants on shelves. The top panel was painted as a blue sky with clouds.

    But news site Motherboard described the chamber as a "coffin-sized booth in the middle of an Amazon warehouse".*

      Being in that box would hardly be restful or restorative for me.

            Just think what you could do with one $2.50 Harbor Freight ratchet strap...
