No HOUYHNHNM for 24 hours! . Sad to say, but that's the kind of accommodation plan we have at Hotel Indigo Karuizawa.

The texts, lines, and "like" notifications that flood in without regard to whether or not I'm interested.

I'd like to try it someday," he says, "but it's hard to do it.

. If we can't do it on our own, let's ask for help from others.

Hotel Indigo Karuizawa will start accepting reservations for the "Mindfulness in Karuizawa in Early Summer," an accommodation plan based on the theme of "mindfulness," on June 11 (Sat.), Global Wellness Day.

This plan is a 24-hour stay, with check-in at 1:00 p.m. , earlier than usual. The next day, check out later at 1:00 p.m. , so you can stay at the hotel and enjoy Karuizawa's abundant nature at your leisure.

And there is one more point worth mentioning. You are asked to leave all of your digital devices, such as smartphones and PCs, with us when you check in, allowing for a semi-digital detox.

By keeping your distance from your phone, which you can easily touch if you are not careful, you can focus on what is in front of you and experience mindfulness.

But it does not mean that you will just sit in a daze for 24 hours . We have a great plan for you.

In addition to books selected by the concierge of the Daikanyama Tsutaya Bookstore in your room, you can also enjoy a playlist of songs selected especially for this plan.

Also, as an activity to enjoy Karuizawa to the fullest, strolling while gazing at Mount Asama, or bird-watching or squirrel-watching while taking a walk in the forest with binoculars in hand, seem to be a good idea.

The hotel is also equipped with a large carbonic acid spring bath suitable for regulating the autonomic nervous system , a sauna, and a fitness center.

At "The Spa by HARNN," a prestigious spa originating from Thailand, you can enjoy blissful relaxation with Oriental medicine and traditional natural therapy treatments using original aromas to relieve the stiffness in your body accumulated in the daily digital environment (spa use is charged separately).

And for those who have achieved a 24-hour digital detox, they will receive a special gift that will help them feel relaxed at home.

While resting your body in the fresh breeze of Karuizawa, a summer resort, you can listen to the pleasant background music and indulge in reading.

Say goodbye to the information society for a while and go on the ultimate retreat. See you in 24 hours!
