Magnetic Meditation Kit

The Kit includes a book about magnet meditation and three hematite magnets with a velvet carrying pouch. It’s the perfect gift for someone who is exposed to high-stress environments or suffers from insomnia.
Belly Button Healing Kit
The gut is known as the “second brain,” and stimulating your navel to induce intestinal massage triggers the nerve beneath the navel that is responsible for releasing chemicals that combat stress. Belly Button Healing has a whole array of unexpected benefits from jumpstarting the immune system, revving up digestion, managing hormones, circulating blood and lymph, and triggering the rest-and-digest response in the body. It’s truly the one step solution to health and a brilliant gift for anyone who suffers from a lot of stress.
