“I suffer with anxiety and vaping 24-7. After watching videos and doing my own research, I decided to give this a shot. Thinking it wouldn't work, boy was I wrong. It is amazing and definitely helps with anxiety and also is helping to quit vaping because my biggest struggle was the hand to mouth motion. It has already helped so much”
“The design of the Komuso is so well thought out. Just heavy enough to provide a feeling of physical security, yet light enough to be comfortable to wear even while being active. The Japanese writing is a beautiful addition to the style and beauty of the shift. It says " be still" in Japanese. A great reminder to stay present.”
“My order has a mishap, but Komosu’s kind and caring response fixed the problem quickly and i love my necklaces!!!! These are amazing. Got one for my hubby and daughter too!”
“I am impressed with the look of this , I like that it looks like a pretty necklace and not some device.
I have been confused how to use it. Does the angled end point down towards my tongue or up towards the roof of my mouth or does it matter?”
Hi Anita! Thanks for the review and feedback! The Shift was designed with an angled edge as an inspiration element from the shakuhachi flute of the Komuso monks from 17th century Japan. You can use the edge in whichever manner feels most comfortable. Wishing you many calm breaths!
“Flexible and make for a great "fidget".
Keeps my brain in line when it wanders off.
Got one on a necklace, one on my keys, and one hanging by a pic in my room.
Would like 3 more simply because I tend to lose things. LOL”
“So far with two days of use. 1 with the classic and 1 with the active I'm pretty pleased. While I haven't had a full blown panic attack I have had moments where my anxiety kicked in and then my mind would spiral from there. Having this so close actually helped. The reasons it's not 5 stars. Each day someone thought it was a whistle. The chain on the classic gold doesn't really look as high quality as I would've liked. It's got a brass undertone. It also could be a touch longer. But all that said it does what I hoped it would.”
“I like the sleek design and the cool touch- my ADHD self loves it. I was worried that it wouldn’t work for some reason but I shouldn’t have - it’s 10/10”
“I love the classic shift and Todd's course provides a simple three step daily ritual to getting the most out of this groundbreaking approach to calming anxiety and providing physical relief. I'm even sleeping better. I have just ordered a classic shift and vessel for my son who is a medical student. I'm sure this program will help him better cope with high pressure assessments and ultimately he will be able to assist future patients with this knowledge. Seriously, if you suffer from anxiety, rumbly tummy and poor sleep, give the Komuso shift and method a try.”
“I received the order on Saturday and it looked good. Now it is Monday and I noticed one of the screws is missing. I wasn't rough with it, just wearing it around the house. Please let me know what I can do about that. Thank you.”
Hi Anna, we're so sorry for the issue with the screw. Have you been in touch with our customer service team at info@komusodesign.com? We'll make sure to replace it asap!
“To be honest, I have yet to use mine because I needed to exchange my ordering error. When they arrived, I did notice what looks like excellent design & craftsmanship. I do look forward to using.”
“I just love it. It's been such a comfort to me during a stressful time of life. The slow breathing helps so lower my anxiety tremendously and it's something I can never quite figure out how to do on my own.
I love that it feels sturdy and easy to clean, but also beautiful.”
Hi Sarah,
Thank you for the feedback! Inside the box, there should have been a card foldout which includes instructions. Was that not there? We're happy to send that over.
Hoping we can help!
Todd
“I like to benchmark products. I purchased 3 breathing whistles -- $9.98, $17.95, and the Komuso for $90.00+. I started out with the two cheaper ones because I could not believe I needed to pay so much for a simple design. I was disappointed. They weren't designed the same way as the Kosumo. They were not a "straw" design at all but instead had the ends blocked and the air could only escape through tiny vents. The result was you had to blow much harder and also it made an oddly unpleasant ragged gurgling sound. I was hoping for a soothing sound more like the wind or breath. So I decided to try the Komuso and was thrilled. It is exactly what I was hoping for. It is beautiful, pleasant to touch, just right resistance to blow through and the sound it makes is soothing. In the end, I have to say it is worth the price. It is obvious it has been carefully engineered. My only complaint is the beveled end where the mouth goes. It looks nice, like a flute, but it is akward to place in the mouth -- you have to twist it to get it to sit just so otherwise it feels odd if it is placed sideways or upside down. Buy this product, it is worth every penny.”
“I have ordered 2 of these in the last 2 weeks and I absolutely love mine! Not too long after I put mine on I immediately started feeling a breath of relief. I have been only using the one I have for a short time but I would have to say it definitely helps.”
