Eye pillows are often used at the end of a yoga class during savasana. They are usually placed over the eyes, to shut out the light and help aid relaxation. The pillows can be filled with flax seed, rice, linseed or even light beans or peas, which means that the pillow can easily mould itself to the shape of the face. The pillows generally contain lavender seeds to help soothe the mind and body.
You may also find your eye pillow has the following benefits:
- use it before sleep to aid relaxation and improve sleep quality
- it can help with inner focus during meditation
- use it to help rest and soothe tired eyes
- place it over the forehead to help relieve any tension or stress
