 This mod aims to turn Meditation into a much more immersive part of the game and expand its role within Alchemy. The mod overlays the Meditation UI on top of the game world, allowing you to see Geralt meditating whilst time passes. Additionally, the mod optionally restricts Alchemy to only when you are Meditating or at a herbalist. This is reflected with an additional button prompt highlighting Meditation's new role in the Alchemy process. All of this combines to bring the gameplay much more in line with the lore whilst feeling like a seamless extension of the base game; considerable effort has been made to make this mod feel like it was always a part of the vanilla experience! The Corvo Bianco bed works just as before, with a slightly updated design for consistency with the new Meditation menu.

To go further, you can combine this mod with Simple Alchemy Refill (just make sure to run Script Merger) to really turn up the dial on making Meditation part of your pre-battle preparations. You'll find that with both mods installed, before a fight Geralt must first meditate, selectively making new batches of the potions, oils and bombs he'll need for the battle ahead. This gameplay loop really makes you feel like a Witcher!
