Komuso The Shift - Matte Slate Grey

When you're stressed or even experiencing anxiety, our whole nervous system is affected and your thoughts may be racing anyway. The whole body goes into what we call the fight/flight response and breathing tends to become shallow and deep in the chest. This bodily reaction obviously has a vital function in real danger, but unfortunately is not always so helpful in our everyday lives, and can instead cause us to lose touch with both ourselves and our surroundings. With the Shift, you can very easily break the body's stress response, so that you can naturally calm down both your thoughts and your body's stress levels. You breathe in and then slowly exhale into the jewellery itself. Don't breathe so that it whistles (that's too fast), just so that you can barely hear your exhale. Repeat 5 times or until you feel you have "landed" with your body and thoughts. You will quickly feel how your breathing affects both how your body feels and how your thoughts go.
