Gua Sha Face Massage Tool

*Self-Care is Self-Love* *History A timeless tool dating back centuries in China, gua sha was traditionally used to relieve heatstroke and the sudden onset of illness. *Benefits* Today, it is more commonly used on the face to stimulate and drain the lymphatic system, which allows the flow of fresh nutrients to our skin cells, relieving puffiness and inflammation. *Note* This item is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. *How-To* Add it to your daily routine, after your regular skin care routine or applying a facial oil or mist. Using a light, firm stroke, sweep the gua sha tool upwards and outwards over your face and neck - or anywhere on your body that feels like it could use a little extra love! Repeat the strokes several times in each area before moving on to the next - do what feels good for you! Also a great tool for use on sore muscles after a run or workout. *Why Agate?* - Grounding, soothing, calming - Builds self-acceptance + confidence - Brings hidden layers to light - Harmonizes yin + yang ☯ - Encourages speaking one’s truth - Raises awareness of oneness, dissolving separation - Centers + stabilizes physical energy - Dissolves + heals inner anger, tension - Creates sense of safety, aiding in healing emotional trauma - Overcomes negativity + bitterness of the heart to accept love - Fosters courage to start anew - Said to aid skin disorders and cleanse the lymph system *Why Obsidian?* - Enables you to face your true self - Releases imbalances and negative energies - Channels power for the good of all - Supports growth of the soul - Protective, repels negativity & disperses unloving thoughts - Facilitates the release of old loves - Provides support during change - Promote emotional release - Cathartic - Grounding - Brings awareness & clarity of causes of stress - Urges exploration of the unknown; opens new horizons *Why Rose Quartz?* - Stone of unconditional love - Most important stone for heart & heart chakra - Brings deep inner healing and self-love - Opens the heart at all levels, to become receptive to love - Calming, reassuring - Excellent for use in trauma or crisis (including mid-life crisis!) - Attracts love, helps you accept that you ARE lovable - Restores trust and harmony - Gently replaces negative energy with loving vibes - Aids acceptance of necessary change - Enhances positive affirmations - Great emotional healer - Promotes receptivity to all kinds of beauty - Soothes grief, deprivation, and internalized pain - Self-forgiveness, self-acceptance, self-trust, self-worth
