What you need to know
-
• Turn your attention inward faster
• Ease tension across your eyes and temples
• Soothe tired, irritated and screen-strained eyes
• Sink into the sensation of lying on spikes
• Find stillness in meditation and yoga -
Removing your sense of sight forces your attention inward, and weighted pressure mimics the feeling of a hug to help you relax and unwind. With an Eye Pillow, you can take advantage of both; sinking into the sensation of lying on spikes fast, or relaxing quicker than you can on your own.
To Shakti deeper:
• Place over your eyes as you lay on your Mat to deepen your relaxation and truly sink into the experience of Shakti.
• For a next-level release of mind and body - use the Eye Pillow on your Shakti while you listen to the Shakti Shala app.
To relax and unwind in minutes:
• Use your Shakti Eye Pillow for 5+ minutes anytime you need to zone out or are craving a quick wind-down.
• Pair it with power naps, meditations or savasana for a deeper experience.
Pro Tips
• Store your Eye Pillow in a container in the freezer or your bedside drawer and grab it any time you Shakti.
• Play with temperature or add essential oils to elevate your experience.

The external cover of the Shakti Eye Pillow can be cold machine washed simply by removing the clay bead insert prior to washing. Leave the cover to hang dry out of direct sunlight. If the insert requires cleaning, gently hand wash it in soapy water before leaving it to air dry flat.

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).
HANDMADE IN THE HOME OF ACUPRESSURE
Every Eye Pillow is made in our spiritual home. Yours comes from Kishor, a solar-powered Fairtrade factory that carries every certification we could think of – plus a handful we hadn’t considered possible. Its team earn a living wage and they’re predominately female. They’re also Global Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) award winners.
GET TO THE POINT FAST(ER)

- Victoria F.Verified BuyerRated 1 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoDreadful
This is weighted all wrong and is not heavy enough to provide even the gentlest pressure. I’ve tried getting the beads inside into the eye area but they don’t stay there. It 100% needs to be fully filled with heavier beads of whatever’s inside it, to make it more effective for achy eyes and easier to fall asleep.
Shakti Mats17 minutes agoHi Victoria, Thank you so much for the feedback. We will definitely pass it on to the product development team. The weight of The Eye Pillow is intentionally kept light, as the eyes are delicate and excess pressure can potentially cause harm. It's designed to offer gentle, calming pressure rather than intensity, for relaxation without risk.

For me the eye pillow and the weighted blanket really help to calm and drown out the noise in my mind. They are helpful tools while lying on the mat and listening to the guided classes
