Ayurveda takes a 360-degree approach to health; from the food you eat to your daily routine, every aspect of your lifestyle is important and feeds into your overall sense of wellbeing. In our busy lives, it can be hard to find the time or motivation to wind down and take a moment for self-care, but the rewards of even just five minutes to yourself can be huge. With that in mind, I’m excited to announce the launch of two new East by West products: the Neem Comb, a traditional Ayurvedic hair comb made of Neem wood, and the Kansa Wand, a massage tool with a 5,000-year-old history rooted in Ayurveda, both known for their mind-body therapeutic benefits and both easy to incorporate into already busy lifestyles.

Neem Comb
£17.00

The East by West Neem Comb is made from 100% Neem wood, making it naturally antibacterial, hypoallergenic and anti-static. Referred to as the “wonder tree,” the Neem (Azadirachta indica) tree is renowned for its beneficial properties in health and beauty. In haircare, it has been shown to help prevent dandruff, combat frizziness and reduce hair fall. Oversized, with polished teeth that glide through the hair with ease, the Neem Comb gently detangles while evenly distributing your natural hair oils. Finish with long rhythmic strokes from hairline to base of head in order to stimulate the scalp and activate meridien points, all while helping to quieten the mind. Try a few minutes in the morning to wake you up or to wind down before bed.

The Kansa Wand is a traditional Ayurvedic massage tool designed to direct life-force energy (Prana) to open Marma points (Ayurvedic vitality points) on the body. By teaming it with a quality oil or serum, you can gently stimulate circulation, resulting in clearer, plumper and smoother skin while providing a tension-releasing treatment for the head, neck and face. The East by West Kansa Wand features a teak wood handle and polished metal dome made from “kansa,” the Sanskrit word for bronze (a copper tin alloy). This sacred metal blend, claimed to be more healing than gold or silver in Vedic wisdom, quickly warms, and its alkaline properties mean that it can help to naturally balance your skin’s pH. Use it as part of your skincare routine, morning or night.

I hope both the East by West Neem Comb and Kansa Wand will allow you to bring the spa experience to your own home, and at the very least a few minutes of self-care to start or end the day with — or perhaps give you a break in the day. With each purchase, you’ll be able to access exclusive video content demonstrating how I use both as part of my self-care practice and explaining why they are such brilliant rituals to incorporate into your weekly routines.

If both the Neem Comb and Kansa Wand sound right up your street, and you’ve also been waiting to try the East by West Tongue Tingler, I’ve put all three together in a wellness bundle — you’ll save £5 when you buy them together. It also makes the perfect gift for anyone in your life who’s in need of a little TLC.
