“The Shift has helped me quit smoking by offering both relief from my anxiety as well as the physical act of of putting the Shift to my lips like an actual cigarette. The sound it makes as I’m exhaling allows me to focus on each breath. I’ve seen comments saying you could get the same thing from a straw & that is definitely not the case. Money well spent.”
“I ordered these for my oldest daughter an I. We both battle anxiety everyday and we have found that even in the week we have had the shift that it has given us a productive way of dealing with our anxiety. I highly recommend them.”
“I thought I was really good at deep breathing. I actually am pretty good at remembering to deep breathe in stressful situations. I'm not gonna lie, I was pretty skeptical if it would change anything for me. I really got it for my step daughter and got one for myself because, I deep breathe with her when she gets upset. It just takes her a bit to calm down. So, since she likes it when we match and it might help motivate her to use it, I got one for each of us. As soon as I tried mine, I realized I have been exhaling wrong. This tool is amazing and I'm thankful it's good quality for our sensitive skin. I reccomend this for everyone. As soon as I opened mine, my fiance wanted his own too! So now we all have one in different colors. I do need to buy a shorter box chain of the rose gold when it's back in stock for my kid. At least she can have options having both lengths. More reason to wear it everyday. Also rocking something that genuinely benefits you is awesome.”
“Beautiful piece of quality jewelry that happens to be useful. I work as an underwriter in very stressful situations. Having my shift around me all day, is a reminder to breathe when things get rough. And when I’m ready to go out, looks great as an accessory. I’m planning on giving these as gifts, such a great item!!”
“This breathing-meditation necklace is lovely. I wear it all the time, even in the shower, for about 2 or 3 months now. It was very helpful when I had laryngitis due to laryngospasms (I Googled and found this: During an attack, seal the lips around a “straw” and breathe *in* only through the “straw” and not the nose. This technique encourages slower breathing that can help relax the vocal cords.) The necklace also helps me with my mindfulness and diaphragmatic breathing techniques. I truly appreciate the Japanese inscription “Be Still” which is also from Psalm 46:10.”
“I bought the classic shift for my teen daughter to help with her anxiety and to remind her to breathe. It is a tool that she can always have with her that helps her focus so she can get out of the house. I would recommend this be added to anyone’s plan for reducing anxiety. It’s not a cure-all, but it does help.”
