The Shakti Mat
|
The Shakti Mat is the original and official modern day version of the Indian “Bed of Nails”.
No one knows for sure when the bed of nails was first used to heal the body but it is thought to date back to the Chinese scriptures over 4000 years ago. The bed of nails is a well tested tool for healing the body and releasing emotional, physical and mental blockages.
The word Shakti means energy, power, creativity and compassion. Its 6000 acupressure points make it a very effective tool for easing tension and inducing a state of deep relaxation, while also revitalizing and rejuvenating!
In today’s busy world, most of us suffer from chronic fatigue, aching backs and insomnia at some stage in our lives and this is due to the fact that we have forgotten the art of relaxation.
Why not make relxation a part of your daily routine and utilise the benifts of the Shakit mat. The Shakti mat promotes the release of endorphins and oxytocin and, therefore, helps us to be more relaxed, sleep better and you can experience a long-lasting sense of ease and well-being. This mat is also very good to use after exercise, as it promotes an increase in blood flow and rejuvenates the body or just use it at home before bedtime to unwind after a long day.
Initially you use the mat for between 10-15 minutes, gradually increasing your sessions to 20-40 minutes. You can even use it during your lunch break at work to re-energize and refresh yourself if you have had a particularly stressful morning!
The Shakti mat also comes with its own carrying case which enables you to take it with you when on the go or travelling.
