I find the mat easy, but the pillow - I hate that. It spoils the experience for me. I set a music playlist and listen to the music - that makes it far more pleasant.
I'm a relatively new shakti user- I only got my mat yesterday, and already we've seen huge differences. My partner lept onto the mat before I could use it (probably because of curiosity rather than protection), and he was asleep within minutes (with tishirt on). I woke him up but he went to bed for a nap- and I couldn't wake him up despite being a light sleeper usually. I then tried it, and experienced some discomfort, so tried it with a thin cloth barrier... I fell asleep two times, both within a couple of hours of eachother. I then explored abdominal, hand and feet pressure time, and was pleasantly susprised. You can definitely tell the difference between bare skin and clothed skin, and it does take time, but even with discomfort, I felt so relaxed, fell alseep and felt relaxed even after hours of using it. It's very strange but you can't fight it otherwise you don't get the benefits- honestly I feel so relaxed. No sponsorship or anyhting- I just bought it normally. We'll be now purchasing the pillow mat!
Great video Courtney! I just found your channel by searching for the Shakti mat! My friend just introduced it to me last night and I am very excited to give it a go myself! Can't wait to get mine in!
I have the black shakti mat and I love it! I get really bad migraines and cluster headaches. I position the mat so it comes up on my pillow and lie on it, it’s bliss xx
Is the black one more intense? It’s amazing the benefits of the Shakti mat. I didn’t realise it could help with migraines, I wonder if it would help Luke with his 😦 He gets migraines all the time.
Courtney's Chaos, the black one is the same as the orange, just a different colour. Definitely worth a try with Luke if he’s open to it. There is a special neck pillow one you can get but I just use my pillow and bed so I get most of my back, neck and back of my head
I'm not sure yet how effective it is but I'm loving it. I got the original. It arrived 5 days ago. I'm addicted. What I considered painful in the beginning no longer bothers me as I know its not going to last. but it can be uncomfortable for 10 mins or more. Getting off it can be bit of a shock but the quicker the better. Bare back from the beginning and it feels just about right, with some very deep breaths. I like increasing the intensity by hugging my knees to my chest but it needs to be done from the beginning. If you feel that the small of your back is not in deep enough contact it can be very painful to make that move later when the spikes are already in place!!!!! Feet OOOOUUUUUCH. Very demanding with thin socks. Bare feet horrific. Have progressed from 10 to 40 seconds in bare feet. Best done in the morning. Not sure why I'm inflicting it on myself. At least I'm awake going to work! Yes, I have fallen asleep on it. I think my sleep is better but not sure yet. I have 2 house guests staying with me. One is away on holidays. We're planning a prank on her return. Something spikey under her bed sheet! I will give an update in one month when I will have a better idea of how sleep is doing.
Just bought the advanced Shakti. First time user but I always prefer everything more intense. Hopefully my wife can enjoy it too. Cheers for the discount code! It almost balanced out the equivalent of the express shipping.
Yep! Just because a company supplies, products, discount codes or even god forbid pays a TH-camr for their time, effort and work, that doesn’t mean it isn’t an honest review. If I didn’t honesty enjoy a product, I’d send it back and not make the video. I’ve never been paid for a product review on my channel. Even though I spend hours filming and editing as a stay as home mum. Although for some products I do earn a percentage on each purchase made with my code. I hope this addresses your concerns and questions 🙂
Hi! I just want to ask if this can reduce anxiety disorder, increase immune system, contol blood sugar ( I am Type 2 Diabetic), relieves migraine, relieves testicular pain due to Epidydimitis, Prostatitis, constipation, Spondylosis, and also makes you sleep fast without taking sleeping meds like Zolpidem anytime of the day. Thank you. God bless!
Looking at all the reviews Chris it is not a miracle worker but I bought one hoping that the flow on effect of relieving stress points ultimately indirectly helps health ailments I have - but going Vegan then eventually plant based for me I know will definitely help you should try it.
Thats so funny, i can stand on mine barefoot fine no pain or discomfort at all but laying on it, that hurts lol. Saying that i think i have tough feet as my husbands always commenting on how i can walk outside on our washing line area, on all the tiny sharp stones, barefoot, but ive done that since i was a kid lol. My back on the other hand obv needs to get tougher 😂
It makes it kind of sponsored doesn't it?!! ;) The review was in line with many other reviews that I have seen and it seemed very honest, all things considered
I'm on mine right now. I love it. Love having a good long session on a Saturday after doing a desk job all week.

An honest review with a discount code??

@@sophietokamatatia4463 Thank you for your feedback. I really appreciate it. 😊
It helped with my migraine!
This comes across as sales video.
‘Not an ad’ and yet you’re promoting them with a discount code lol
FTC guidelines require you to be paid for it to be considered an ad. They didn’t pay me to make this video. Just following guidelines 😀

It’s pronounced Shock-ti.
Actually. It’s pronounced shahk-ti
Wait, they did not pay you , but you have a discount code ? 🤦🏼♂️ this is not a reliable review.....
It makes it kind of sponsored doesn't it?!! ;) The review was in line with many other reviews that I have seen and it seemed very honest, all things considered
thanks for the video, and i just have to say it ..you have beautiful hands :)
Definitely sounds like it's worth a go for my anxiety. Thanks for the recommendation 🙂
bloody blether
I slept too. And I loved it. So I do that often.
