Stress Straws are mindful breathing jewelry designed to help reduce anxiety by restricting and extending your exhalation. This breathwork technique of slowing your exhale can help quickly overcome the “fight or flight” response constantly activated throughout our busy days. Deep breathing exercises using our breathing straw necklaces can be used to activate the parasympathetic nervous system to create the feelings of calm and relaxation wherever you go. By combining the benefits of meditation and yoga, straw breathing signals the analytical brain to rest and relax. Our Stress Straws may also be helpful when used as a sleep or quit smoking aid. Our all-natural bamboo breathing pendants seek to provide everyone affordable, sustainable and effective stress relief.
