Editorial Reviews - Amazon.com
Mayan hammocks are considered
the
most comfortable in the world. A miracle of craftsmanship, this unique
two-person bed is 7 feet and 2 inches long by a whopping 12 feet wide and
is made up of more than 2 miles of fine cotton cord strung over hundreds
of strong white nylon arm strings--a construction that is capable of supporting
more than 1,000 pounds. And that's hardly the impressive part. The
parade
of color on this hammock spans fuchsia, red, fiery orange, sky blue,
black, white, and the greenest of greens: a display as delightful as the
floating feeling you'll get when you rest on it. Our only caution? When
you first open the package you'll probably be overwhelmed by the thousands
of tiny strings that look like one daunting tangle. Before hanging, spread
the bed out straight on the ground, then pick up one handle at a time and
shake gently. The strings should fall out neatly, and you'll be ready to
float in style.
From the Manufacturer
Though most of the products
of the Mayan civilization are lost, the Mayan hammock lives on today. The
Mayan hammock is possibly the highest achievement in hammock design. Unchallenged
as the most comfortable of all the hammocks.

In A Hammock
In my childhood I used to be a swinger
in my self made hammock hanged between two trees in my garden. My hammock
was not made of durable Nylon threading nor a Mayan comfortable hammock
but my feeling was excellent and my first experience with a hammock was
incredible. I read all my childhood books in that hammock, I dreamed
a great part of my child dreams in that hammock. Hammocks are the
best for relaxation and they are a paradigm of paradise because their swing
remember us the intrauterine period when mother steps create for us a sweet
swing. In that way hammocks are a technique for "retour en arriere", for
discover our inner self and origins. Hammocks satisfy our nostalgia for
origins and give us a paradise memory. Just swing in your hammock and and
this will regenerate your atavic memories, will bring back fragments of
the lost paradise. Hammocks are oasis of silence, ambassadress
of lost paradise, isles of relaxation in quotidian life. We make the experience
of a hammock swing in vacation, usually in a natural, paradise like environment
and in this way hammocks help us to strengthen paradise memory in our daily
life. Any time we use our hammock we remember not only our amiotic paradise
but our handy paradise we usually experience in vacations and in nature.
Hammocks sweet sway can be not only a stress protector but they can help
us to eliminate stress because hammocks are catalyst of dream and dream
is our natural way to eliminate stress. Hammocks are startups for dream
and dreams are basic material for our lives. For this reason hammocks stimulate
our creativity, they are thinking tanks, incubator for future realities
in our life. Hammock is a good place to let the seed of our creative ideas
to germinate. Today dreams are future realities and hammocks are dreams
factories and reality builders.
In my child experience with my hammock
I realized how much children are attracted by hammocks when my friend are
watching one each other with the watch in hand to share this infinite resource
that was my hammock. The sweet sway of the hammock will
always be associated with my hours spent in hammock in my vacancies. At
sea side I usually wakeup at 7 in the morning and go to the beach hang
my hammock, take the first bath, lonely in the sea, and then resting in
the mild sun of the morning. Hammocks help us to learn the essence
of Heraclit and Indian philosophy. Panta rey, all is in movement,
anything is fix, immobile is the eternal lesson of the hammock. Just
consider that the things are not fixed but mobile, in movement and your
tension will be less and less. A hammock help you to fix this in all your
cells. In the sweet sway of the hammock you understand the basic truth
of life: the fact that at the basis of our universe is a field, and that
each particle, each object and being is just a blips in the eternal sway
of that field. The universe is just a huge, ephemeral being resting in
the cosmic hammock of that field. Juvenilisation is humanization.
Evolution mean to grow up like mature but to keep alive the abilities of
a child: desire of learning, spontaneity, creativity. Hammock sway help
you to grow keeping alive the child inside you.
