Acupressure is a combination of acupuncture and pressure point therapy.  It is well known that Traditional Chinese Medicine promotes healthy energy flow through our bodies.  Using this Yantra Mat allows for a higher level of relaxation, with 8800 acupressure points that increase blood flow immediately.  When I first unrolled this mat I was quite surprised at how sharp the pressure points felt beneath my fingertips.  Once laying flat on the mat wearing a thin t-shirt as a barrier the sensation of the pressure discs is amazing.  After only a few minutes I was feeling warm and relaxed.  Once I had tried the mat wearing the t-shirt for a few days I tried it on my bare skin and sensation became more intense and meditative.  The symbol on the mat is called the Yantra, concentrating on this symbol also helps to clear your mind in preparation for meditation.  I allowed several friends and family try out my mat and everyone had the same results, claiming to feel very relaxed after only a few minutes.  This mat comes in medium, large and extra large and your color choice of purple or green and on May 17th they will introduce an additional color choice of black.  The medium size worked great for full coverage of my back.  You can use the Yantra Mat in any position you choose, I even rolled it up and placed the side of my head on it which was great for alleviating my headache.  Click here to buy your own Yantra Mat, end your day with an easy way to relax and meditate.
