We recently had the chance to connect with Christina Fraling and have shared our conversation below.
Good morning Christina, it’s such a great way to kick off the day – I think our readers will love hearing your stories, experiences and about how you think about life and work. Let’s jump right in? What battle are you avoiding?
The battle of content creation-LOL! This definitely isn’t my strong suit, and I’m more than happy to pay a reasonable fee for someone else to handle it—seriously, LOL! I think a lot of small business owners feel the same way. We’d rather focus on our craft, post what we can, and hope customers magically show up 😄. But in today’s tech-driven world, people want to see you work. They want to watch the process or see your work in action to truly connect with it—and static images just don’t cut it anymore.
So here I am, facing the unavoidable battle I’ve been dodging: showing up more visibly to meet the public’s desire for transparency and engagement, and to be seen as a viable service. Thankfully, I’m not facing this alone—I’ve received some great advice and backup to help me tackle this beast!
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
Hello friends! My name is Christina and I am the CEO/Founder of Virtual Oasis Meditation Service. LLC.
By way of our Oculus eyewear devices and zero gravity recliner, I provide alternate reality meditation sessions to help guests better manage the stresses in their lives. Recently, I’ve expanded on my service by purchasing a Sound Lounge Vibroacoustic Therapy Bed. Not only will this additional service help to reduce stress and anxiety, but it will also relieve pain and muscle tension and improve sleep quality. I’m REALLY excited to be able to offer this service to my clients along with the alternate reality meditation sessions.
In 2019, I became a single parent with two children, and for the first time, I experienced anxiety and panic attacks. It wasn’t severe enough for me to seek therapy or consider prescription medications and I wasn’t interested in exploring medicinal psychedelics. What I truly needed was a quiet space—somewhere I could be alone, mentally escape, and emotionally ground myself.
Like many, I was familiar with the practice of meditation. However, when it came to actually relaxing my mind, I found group settings distracting, the prices too high for the limited time offered, and I couldn’t comfortably sit in the traditional lotus position for long periods. I simply needed a peaceful place to disconnect, be alone, and calm my thoughts.
Unfortunately, there was no place like that for someone like me and after talking with other people and conducting a few surveys, I discovered that I wasn’t the only one who felt this way. Ultimately, I decided to create an all-inclusive service to accommodate not just for people like me but for anyone interested in experiencing an alternate style of meditation.
Virtual Oasis Meditation Service offers reasonably priced, alternate reality meditation sessions as well as vibroacoustic therapy sessions (coming soon) in a safe private quiet space for guests to comfortably relax and momentarily escape the chaos in a peaceful, virtual realm to help improve their quality of life. As the demands of today’s challenges continue to escalate, it’s crucial that we prioritize our mental and emotional wellness. This service is not only able to reduce guests stress levels but also improve their overall mood. We are committed to helping our guests transmute negative energy, into positive one peaceful moment at a time.
We’re also proud to offer our own brand of handcrafted, all-natural line of sleep aid products, Whispering Dreams. This unique collection features plant- and herb-based blends designed to help you unwind and enjoy a restful night’s sleep. Our offerings include soothing soy wax candles, loose burnable herbs, essential oil fragrances to be used with water-based aroma diffusers AND—thanks to a recent partnership with holistic supplement company APLGO—a 100% plant-based lozenge that gently relaxes the mind at the end of your day.
All of our products are free from THC and CBD, entirely herbal and plant-based, non-GMO, and contain no toxins or harmful synthetics. You can rest easy knowing your health is supported—not compromised—as you drift off into the restorative sleep we all need and deserve.
Amazing, so let’s take a moment to go back in time. What breaks the bonds between people—and what restores them?
Simply put, disrespect and distrust can easily break bonds. Apologies, acknowledgment and corrective actions can potentially restore them. I feel that’s all that needs to be said on that matter.
If you could say one kind thing to your younger self, what would it be?
A quote from Winnie The Pooh (because I LOVED Winnie The Pooh growing up),
“You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, smarter than you think, and loved more than you know.”
I think that’s a message both kids and adults can emotionally benefit from.
Sure, so let’s go deeper into your values and how you think. What would your closest friends say really matters to you?
I hope that they would say a person’s integrity and character matter a great deal to me. I definitely judge people by the content of their integrity and character, and I have no hesitation in removing myself from any energy that isn’t in alignment—and I’m perfectly okay with that.
If I see that someone is untrustworthy, avoids accountability for their actions and behavior, or consistently shows a disregard for others, I will kindly and respectfully remove myself from that toxicity—without regret and without looking back.
Okay, we’ve made it essentially to the end. One last question before you go. If you retired tomorrow, what would your customers miss most?
Along with my service😁, I would say my warmth, comforting hugs, empathy, compassion, honesty, and my welcoming smile😊.
