Crystal Stix - Finding Your Quiet Mind

By Bill Vestal

"Achieving A Quiet Mind Regularly, While Not Such an Easy Feat,
is Entirely Possible for Most of Us."

We have heard regularly from Health Professionals about the negative effects of stress on health. Breaking-up our stress patterns is a fundamental need we all have, however our mental wheels are stimulated constantly from the moment we open our eyes from sleeping to the last thing on our minds before drifting off to sleep again. Only to have the momentum continue in our sub-conscious while we sleep. This constant mental activity creates a level of stress that stays with us for most of our lives.

In our modern world we are taught so many things that keep our mental wheels spinning yet we are not taught how to stop the spin. Sure sometimes we arrive at moments when we are not thinking about things a lot however we still have the momentum going on underneath the surface - and this takes longer to slow down. All of this activity keeps us away from our center and somewhat off balance. Achieving a quiet mind regularly, while not such an easy feat, is entirely possible for most all of us. It requires cultivating a new learned-response. The Crystal Stix allow you to do this by offering something to focus on that requires more and more of your attention as the play becomes complex and/or faster. This means you start withdrawing attention from other stressed areas and refocusing it on the Crystal Stix activity.

At the end of play you feel energized not only because of the exercise but also because of the emotional space you have opened up. After an intense Crystal Stix session your mind quiets itself naturally, stress is transformed into a healthy exuberance making you look and feel younger and more full of life!

"STRESS IS TRANSFORMED INTO A HEALTHY EXUBERANCE MAKING YOU LOOK AND FEEL YOUNGER AND MORE FULL OF LIFE."

We have had innumerable comments from Stix players all over the country on the stress relieving qualities of the Stix. People take them to work or school and play during breaks, two psychologists we know use them to help their patients relax before or during a session. The meditative qualities are undeniable, try it for yourself. Take your Stix with you and try them on your next break.
