And It’s Not What You Think…

Three hours after getting hit by a van on my bike, I wondered if my neck was broken.

Recently, I wrote about my origin story, and how I was just a normal, average guy, having a lovely early morning cycle, when a sinister van decided to end that experience and crushed me, sending me into the Emergency Room. I continue to have intensely painful tweaks of my neck, and instead of using what traditional Doctors gave me, I developed my own Acupressure Mat to help with the healing.

After using a few acupressure mats on the market, I realised that my head wasn’t getting supported on an acupressure mat, and so I was missing out on some serious healing point (like the awesomely named “Gates of Consciousness”). Any acupressure pillows I did find didn’t feel right to me; they were flimsy, and not easy to carry, and were very delicate. They also seemed cheap and came in awful colours.

And they were NOT PILLOW SHAPED. They came with were these weird, tubular half-moon shaped creatures that required a manual to even lay down on. And they were ugly. Real Ugly.

“Why Should Healing Have To Be So Ugly?”

I just wanted to open my Gates of Consciousness… but how? I knew if I didn’t recover from my concussion, and quick, I was going to continue to turn into a monster — I was snapping at my partner, my brain didn’t like looking at screens and I felt so unconfident at work (it’s called brain injury anger)

So, I went through the archives, hit the drawing board and months later was able to produce an actual pillow-looking acupressure pillow!

My pride and joy.

So when I went away and started to develop my own pillow, with over 3,000 spikes, made for the modern person. It’s beautiful, it comes with a travel bag, has a soothing colour, and it can relieve and work on headaches, tension areas and neck pain.

The only problem? Coronavirus has slowed the progress. From launching in January to now, where it is aboard the MSS Venice on the way to the UK, right now. The pillows are on a luxury cruise on their way here — sea travel still takes a month — so I’m eagerly counting down the days till when it gets here.

Combined with the acupressure mat, here’s what it is going to help with:

🧘A Natural Way To De-Stress. Simply lie on the acupressure mats and massage pillow for a release of endorphine that make you melt, and be ready for anything to come, in just minutes a day.

😊Use To Boost Your Mood. Release stagnant energy and feel more relaxed, attentive and in-control, so you can continue reaching your life goals.

❤️Feel Muscle Tension Melt Away. Relieves headaches, stiff neck, back pain, fibromyalgia and insomnia relief, so you can optimise your routine.

✌️Natural, Drug Free, Holistic Self-Care. Hand crafted from eco-friendly, non harmful materials to know that you are making a difference to the planet.

🧘Take Charge Of Your Wellness Journey. Practice the ancient healing form of acupressure, in a modern way, so you can gain an edge in life without needing a practitioner.

For me, it’s been a long road, and taken almost a year to develop this acupressure pillow, but I believe in it’s self-healing power, because it helped self-heal me. It’s cost me thousands in research and development and testing, and I know it works, because I’ve tried it, and I use it, and I feel better for it.

I wanted to share this discovery with as many people as I can. So I created Yoke Wellness, an eco-friendly wellness products company, and I modernised the Acupressure Mat (Check out my FREE E-book on energy here), to help as many people as I can find their own wellness.
