An exciting space with temples and technology! Share Wing Co., Ltd., which manages “Temple Stay” on the mission of “Temple”, where the history and charm of the land are soaked, says, “Concentrate work + prepare your mind + know the area + enjoy the area!” We have started to sell a special plan for “Tera-Wacation”, a new way of spending exciting work with one element.
The new work style “Tera Work”, which “work” at the temple, adjusts the body and body, and demonstrates high performance in extraordinary days, was well received. We plan “Temple work application plan” where you can experience “plus knowing + enjoying the area!” In a quiet and calm environment unique to a rural temple away from the city center, you can look at yourself and do a different remote work for a vacation.
There are five lodging lodgings available: Takayama Zenkoji Temple (Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture), Hatababo (Minobu Prefecture, Yamanashi Prefecture), Kanon-in Temple (Kiryu City, Gunma Prefecture), Shodenji Temple (Tamachi, Tokyo) and Taitai Temple (Nachikatsuura, Wakayama Prefecture). Shukubo. During your stay, you can experience the uniqueness of a temple in a plan with accommodation that you can use before and after check-in as a place for telework. We aim to create opportunities not only for personal use but also as a place for “work” that takes care of time with the family and spends special time with the power of the temple.
While the introduction of telework by each company is progressing, voices such as “I want to work in a safe and secure place”, “I want to concentrate on working in a calm place”, “I feel at home and feel stress” , Temple work will be held for a limited time from May 1st. One of the characteristics of temple work is that you can also experience the Buddha’s Buddha and meditation, which are unique to temples, between telework.
As the voices of the users, “I was able to concentrate quietly (male in my 40s)” “I was able to work while calming down, so my work was very quick (female in my 40s)” “A new form of temple I was thrilled (female in 20s) “It was easy to work in a quiet space with a high ceiling (male in 20s)” “It was nice to have a temple-like experience during work (female in 30s)” “A high degree of satisfaction and appreciation for working at the temple have been gathered.
The temple aims to provide a next-generation workspace and learning to become a new “place” that prepares the mind and body, which is the future of work style reform, and at the same time, to provide a “relationship” that creates connections.
