I always thought that people that wore eye masks or used eye pillows were a little weird. I just found out that there are numerous acupressure points around the eyes and when you wear one it puts gentle pressure on these points and soothes you. I also found out that that when we have our eyes closed and think we have rapid eye movement. when you were one of these masks the gentle pressure on the eye stops the movement and can contribute to a quiet mind so that you can sleep better. A friend that does not sell these told me and said they are also good for meditation, because I am having a hard meditating. I am now shopping sround for one. Lavender is a scent that is also supposed to be soothing, so I am looking for a scented one. who would have thunk? I just thought I would share for those of us that are having trouble sleeping.

I got mine at Bed bath and Beyond.. It wourks great along with the neck pillow that you can throw in a microwave for a few minutes. I get migraines and the two together are a life saver. And well just being a parent, employee and student the stress relief is wonderful since I can't go get a massage instead |
