The Mini
$19.95
Size: 3″ x 7″ (7.5 x 18 cm)
The Mini was originally designed for the eyes but we have found it to be nurturing when placed on or below the clavicular joint, on the hyoid (Adam’s apple) and thymus gland, on the forehead, and on various places on the abdomen while lying face up. It can also lend its gentle relaxing presence to the top of your shoulders while seated.
When using on your eyes it can be adjusted by pinching the middle so each side lays at the ideal distance. You can further adjust the fit and softness of the pillow by twisting the middle section before placing on your eyes.
The cover cannot be removed.

Product Details
Handmade with Love in Los Angeles, California
Nurture To Heal™ Therapeutic Pillows evolved out of our desire to create a tool that would support and enhance somatic awareness. We wanted to develop a therapeutic comfort tool for self-regulation and self-care that NeuroAffective Touch® practitioners could use and give to their clients. The outcome has exceeded our hopes. Professional psychotherapists, bodyworkers, and everyone who can benefit from tender self-care and who struggles with nervous system regulation have found them useful.
All Nurture To Heal™ Therapeutic Pillows are made of luxurious deep red stretch velvet. Filled with organic flax seeds, they are soft and malleable. They can be warmed in the microwave or cooled in the freezer. Pleasingly tactile and sensuous, the pillows are a valuable resource to support self-regulation, encourage soothing self-care, and heighten body awareness. We believe that once you use them and discover the special effects of each shape, you will find that you can’t be without your collection of pillows.
Contents: The Nurture to Heal™ Therapeutic Pillows contain unscented, food grade organic flax seeds only. The cover is made of stretch polyester velvet.
