Abstract
This paper studies how to properly meditate in a VR environment and increase the effect of chakra meditation by real-time EEG data. Meditation on the chakra is beneficial for the health of the body. For ordinary people, the chakra is invisible and unimaginable. Therefore, we developed the application in a VR environment. Users can sit inside a non-distracting environment with chakra visualization. The application can understand the condition of the user using the EEG data during the chakra meditation
