The Lotus Collection: This item is part of Dancing Lotus: Moving Together, a limited edition collaboration between Kate McLeod and KHIRY, an Afrofuturist luxury jewelry brand.

Why You'll Love It: Becoming immersed in a heavyweight object is an evidence-based technique for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Informed by the grounding practice of the Body Stone and inspired by KHIRY’s signature sculptural jewelry, this unique piece includes a heavyweight bronze pendant that can be centered over your heart with a beautiful, adjustable wax-cotton cord with onyx bead detailing. Hold or wear this piece to help ground you in the present moment, reduce feelings of stress and anxiety, and instill a greater sense of calm.

• 1. Hold the Grounding Object in your hand. Close your eyes. Feel the weight of the Object. Connect with the present moment by taking three deep breaths.

• 2. Center the Grounding Object over your heart with the adjustable cord. Let its weight serve as a reminder to move with love and compassion for yourself and others.

The Grounding Object can naturally tarnish over time. Avoid residue build up by gently buffing it with a soft polishing cloth to help maintain its original shine. Remove before showering or exercising. When not in use, keep tucked inside the pouch and store in a safe, dry place.
