Acupressure and weighted pressure are powerful ways to relax and calm your body. But where Shakti acupressure spikes stimulate your pain response to help you relax, weighted pressure activates your hug response to help reduce stress. Doing so can increase the production of serotonin (happy hormone), melatonin (sleep hormone), and reduce cortisol (stress hormone).

I like the eye pillow because it stays put. I do wish it were heavier and had more beads towards the middle. It seems like all the weight is on the outside and I need more pressure throughout.
