No, it is not just a straw, but we can understand your confusion. Our inspiration was drawn from a well-established straw breathing technique renowned for its natural ability to calm the mind silently. However, we aspired to create something more practical, a tangible commitment to cultivating daily better breathing habits.
Utilizing medical-grade stainless steel, we prioritized safety for daily use, incorporating baked-in precious metal colors for enhanced durability. Rigorous testing and subsequent patenting of the tube's length and diameter were pivotal to achieving optimal exhalations that physiologically induce a sense of calm.
While the option of using a regular straw exists, the inconsistent sizing and susceptibility to flattening in your pocket guided our design of The Shift. Wearing it as a necklace transforms the act of breathing better into a daily ritual, a commitment that proves beneficial whenever you feel the need to pause and take a breath.
We all get that slowing down our breathing can bring us to a nice relaxation, but let's be real — most of us don't actually do it. Why? Well, we're clocking in a whopping 23,000 breaths a day, and honestly, most of them are on autopilot. That's where The anxiety necklace steps in. So, those intentional, slow breaths become a daily thing without even thinking about it. Whether you're stuck in traffic, battling insomnia, or simply dealing with an anxious mind, The anxiety necklace has your back, instantly bringing you back to that calm state.
We get it — you might be a bit skeptical about how or why this works because, well, it seems pretty simple. Here's the lowdown: our tool isn't just some random idea. It's been meticulously designed and rigorously tested. We've got the science-backed details to back it up.
We made sure the anxiety necklace is designed for discreet use, giving you the freedom to use the tool seamlessly at work, school, or around others. Despite its appearance resembling a whistle, the only sound it produces during use is an amplified version of your exhale. This intentional design serves as a cue to help train your mind, redirecting your thoughts back to your body. So, it's not just about the looks; it's a purposeful tool working with you wherever you are.
