Testimonials
 yoga bangle
Thanks so much for creating this meditation bangle. I am very pleased with the effects of this bangle and am so glad that I bought it. It definitely has a subtle effect for me but one that my inner consciousness recognizes as helpful. I have been meditating for 36 years and I think a little push in the right direction is worth the cost of this bangle. As one progresses in meditation the capacity to recognize subtleties in energy increases as well. When it is worn at night there is definitely less of a need for sleep. It seems the bangle acts as a type of "power pack" of energy. As long as there is some type of attachment to the body then I think that a person should do what is necessary to increase one's energy levels so that it becomes easier to meditate. If we eat and drink and breathe to supply the body with energy---why not supply energy to the subtle body as well? So thanks again and hope many others will be able to benefit with this bangle. I was an SRF monk for a number of years and considered myself proficient at meditation at the time, but looking back at that aspect now, I sure wish I had this bangle then! Ben Garcia
Hi Nick, Thank you for introducing me to the Meditation Bangle. Within two days of wearing it, I was in a “spiritual high.” I had an increased desire to meditate, I was able to concentrate and practice my meditation Thank you so much for introducing this powerful meditation bangle and bringing it to us to help us with our meditations. Sincerely,
When I first put on the bangle I thought it was beautiful, of course, but maybe a little too much for me. I don't know, too big or something. I was concerned it would draw too much attention, I think. I even decided to give it back to my friend who had asked me to wear it. I mean, I don't even really think I know exactly how to meditate. Wouldn't it be sort of insincere to wear a big meditation bangle when I don't really meditate? I now realize that it has lots of purposes other than assisting in meditation, but at first, I had lots of red flags up about why it wasn't going to work out for me to wear it. Except I didn't want to offend her, and really, I was flattered that they wanted me to wear it. It is an expensive piece of jewelry and here they were offering it for me to wear for free with the stipulation that I wear it continually and report back my experiences, if any. At first I didn't want to be responsible for such an expensive piece that I had not paid for, but when she told me I would actually be helping her I decided it would be okay to test it. After all, I had been admiring hers for a long time. I have an active life with two young children, so I am constantly interacting with large groups of people at the local preschool, elementary school and various yoga studios around town. Karen explained to me that Nick was doing extensive research which requires detailed feedback, so I was happy to be a part of his process. Karen and Nick knew it would get lots of exposure if I just left it on my arm, and that is how Karen convinced me to take it. I later came to find out that this gesture was not, after all, just to help them research mediation bangles. Karen knew I had been having a hard time emotionally, as I approached what would have been my daughter's 16th birthday. Jozlyn died the same day she was born, and her birthday is also her death anniversary. Obviously, it is a hard day for me every year. This year was particularly painful, as I perceived it as the end of a childhood that we never got to experience with her. I had been staying home a lot, skipping my usual evening yoga class and crying whenever no one was around, like in the car or the shower. Typical grief stuff. I was used to it. I felt like I had a lead weight in every cell of my body. I knew that if I just rode the wave that it would eventually crash and life would pick back up again as it always does after great loss. I was just waiting to snap back into life. Karen had been observing me and wanted to see if the bangle could help me or not. So she brought it to me and I put it on my arm thinking I was the one doing her the favor! Little did I know that she was doing a sneaky, yet loving experiment as well! My arm started to twitch immediately. The muscle felt like it was having little spasms here and there. Then I'd feel a little pop, then a few minutes later a twitch and so on for a few days. I found that I would need to switch it from one arm to the other after a few hours, almost as though the one arm that had the gems would need a break from the shift of energy. I can't explain what was happening, but out of nowhere I would feel overwhelmed by the bangle, after not even noticing it, and I would feel compelled to take it off, but I didn't want to stop wearing it, as I could tell something was happening. I could tell changes were occurring, and my interest had been piqued. It was sort of irritating to wear it to yoga, because I practice mostly hot yoga, and with all of the sweat it would slide down my arm and bug me. But I wanted to practice with it on just as an experiment. I will say that I felt an immediate and significant difference in my balancing postures. My balance greatly improved, to the point where I absolutely will not practice without my bangle. Plus I just like to see it sparkling on my arm in class, as the sight of it fills me with joy and appreciation and power and strength. It makes me feel like a female warrior. The single most radical thing that happened to me when I put that bangle on my arm is that I stopped crying. I stopped crying and went from feeling desperately sad to feeling very calm and powerful. Jozlyn's birthday came and went and I didn't shed a single tear. I felt very connected to her and all of the other loved ones that have passed on. Karen had told me stories about how people can improve or burn off karma by altering their electrical body by wearing certain gems, and I just thought that was silly. I even teased her about it. But the only thing that had changed in my life was that I had begun to wear the beautiful bangle. Another interesting thing I figured out was that if I took it off, my moods would dip into worse moods than I had before I started wearing it. It was like I was hooked on the gems. I noticed that on certain mornings I would feel really agitated. I might have very little patience with the children and would feel surging feelings of anger towards my husband, but only in the morning. Then I realized the pattern. I always take the bangle off to sleep. If I had forgotten to put it on in the morning, those were the mornings that I would feel irritation. I have another girlfriend who is also testing a bangle. She has two young children as well. When I was explaining to her about how this happened to me, her eyes lit up and she finished my sentence. Apparently, the same thing has happened to her. The last thing we both want is one more thing to promote, as we are busy with our kids and lives, but we can't help ourselves - this bangle is working what seem like miracles in our lives. Subtle things began to became very clear to me about certain aspects of my life. I shifted my thoughts about an upcoming trip my dear friends and neighbors were about to take. I had known for months about the trip and was feeling badly that I would have to skip it. I just didn't have the money to take a trip to Europe. But as the date approached, I began to look at the event with a different perspective. What had once seemed impossible began to seem actually quite possible. Why couldn't I go? Why couldn't I come up with the money? Of course I can figure it out, and so on. So I talked it over with my husband, we worked out his schedule to be home with the kids, I figured out the money end of it, and I booked my ticket. I got to go to Paris and Madrid and see paintings and do yoga and attend the exquisite wedding. All because my mentality shifted. Again, I can't explain it, but it happened. My attitude changed, and then I put into action new game plans! It was exceedingly powerful what was happening, and I was just thankful for a relief from the heavy grief and this new-found feeling of power over my emotions and life in general. What a gift. The last, and probably most important change occurred with my menstrual cycle, oddly enough. I had been having really erratic cycles, with heavy bleeding one month and the next not so heavy and it was strange enough that I went to the doctor. He had no explanation, and just told me to track it. He was not concerned. When I started wearing the bangle my periods went to a distinct 28 day cycle and lasted a normal amount of time - well, at least they were back in line with how they had always been. This was wonderful! I did not attribute it to the bangle at first, but again, nothing else had changed! We had been trying to have a baby for about a year. Not really making any effort to track temperatures or any of that, but, you know, trying to time it as best as possible, and leaving it all up to God. I put that bangle on my arm, my periods calmed down, and my body conceived a baby within weeks. Coincidence? Maybe. But I doubt it. I told Karen about the pregnancy and she was thrilled to tell Nick, who then reported back that the bangle will also have a positive effect on the baby while it is in the womb. I am so very grateful for the opportunity to experience the changes that I have experienced while wearing it. I will, most certainly, be purchasing one, and will wear it for the rest of my life. It is nothing short of a powerful and precious talisman. R.M
I Love my meditation bangle, I have had it for a over 5 months now and the biggest change I have noticed is that when I first close my eyes to begin my practice – I feel a much greater calmness moving in waves thru my mind. I find I look foreword to my meditations much more because I am not struggling with my monkey mind as i once did. As a former Spa Director of the Hippocrates Health Institute in Florida, I must say that for healing the body, the mind is obviously a huge part of the healing process and for this reason I strongly feel that the other long term benefits of the Meditation Bangle is significant. An interesting thing about the meditation bangle is that it is irrelevant as to what your belief about it is. I noticed a tangible calming that immediately improved the long term pattern of my meditations. It was not something that i expected, but for me that was exceptionally important. Karen Kean,
I have been a lucky owner of the meditation bangle for two months now. I has made a big difference in my life. Ever since I started wearing it, my energy level has improved significantly. I find myself being emotionally stronger with more positive outlook on life and better handling daily challenges. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anybody interested in improving the quality of their life! Best regards, Marzena Jones
I very much am grateful to be working with my Meditation Bangle. For me, Life is a walking meditation. Each moment is a moment with God. I wear the bangle all the time now. I feel clearer as I set my intentions for the day and follow through has been easier since I've been wearing it. Gloria Mary Sobol
I have now been wearing one of your meditation bangles for about two months. Initially, I got a bangle with the stones that were 35 carats each but then I upgraded to a bangle with the stones that are 60 carats each. The experience with this bangle has been very intense - considerably more so than with the navaratna. What I have noticed is that both my ability to focus and my ability to fully and completely understand people and situations have dramatically increased. I have been a meditator for nearly 40 years and my meditations have become much deeper. I practice kriya yoga, which is a meditation technique that requires concentration and focus. I have found that I am able to do the technique considerably better than I ever could before, which has resulted in much deeper meditations. I have also noticed that in my work as a business attorney, I am more effective than I have been in the past. I can quickly and clearly see what needs to be done for each client, both in the big picture and in the smallest details. Given my experience with the meditation bangle, I would call it a power bangle. It seems to amplify and refine both my natural and developed skills and abilities. I would imagine that it will do the same for anyone who wears a meditation/power bangle. Although it is likely that everyone would receive positive benefits from wearing this bangle, undoubtedly the benefits will be different for different people, depending on the nature of their own natural and developed skills and abilities. I would say that the meditation bangle is much more powerful than a traditional navaratna. I would recommend that people who are very sensitive to subtle energies try the 35 carats per stone bangle first. The 60 carat per stone bangle might be too much for such sensitive souls. Nick thanks so much for creating these amazing meditation/power bangles. Sincerely, Charles Werner, Attorney at Law
Hi Nick, One of the most noticeable things about it is that I have felt the coolness of it in my mind and thoughts but most importantly I feel it is imparting colors to me in an even and smooth way. I feel color balanced and also it is doing some sort of a clearing process on me. I feel as if things are being addressed that have been left in a dark corner and ignored forever. And I have gotten another gift as well and that is of patience. I have patience to work through everything. I have become organized and most wonderful of all I have a lot more energy. So for all the money I have spent on healings and vitamins and supplements and diets etc. This is the most power packed healing vitamin supplement in the world. It’s worth every penny and more in the work it does to shift you into a happier healthier and wiser human being. The other thing it did for me was give a very cool and crisp mental clarity about my state of affairs and self sabotage. I have not taken it off for more than 20 minutes on any given day. So for the big realization...I realized that this might be a wonderful gift for someone who might be grieving for a loved one or suffering from a broken heart. It is a soother and healer. It brings happiness. Love and regards, Archna Mehta, Temecula, California
NOTE FROM NICK: The above testimonial from Archana came on the same day that I got an email from a client who said they felt nothing from the meditation bangle and wanted to return it. I would like to add that even though many people report some quite amazing results and experiences wearing the bangle, about 25% report that they don't feel a big difference from it. This is a big reason why I offer the money back guarantee: a full 31 day trial period from date of the bangle's delivery, for a full refund (less insured shipping) if the client is not fully satisfied. The meditation bangle is beautiful and wears well. I thought it would not based on the large size, but it does. However, I did not feel anything when I wore it. Unlike my Navaratna. I felt a strong tingling in my stomach and chest with sharper focus wearing the Navaratna. I intentionally paid attention while wearing the meditation bangle to ensure I was not expecting the same response as my Navaratna so I would not overlook what I felt. I wore it for about 5 days and did not feel anything. I started to keep it anyway with the thought that just because I could not feel anything did not mean it was not working. But since I have a Navaratna I decided to just continue to wear my Navaratna.
Testimonial on Overcoming Depression Over the years I've struggled on and off with depression. My mental energy seemed to be difficult to manage at times, never knowing when out of the blue i would feel depressed, the ongoing inconsistancy of it all was a real challenge in my life. I had the opportunity to try out one of Nicks meditation bangels and was completely shocked by the outcome. Within a half hour my energy level was very consistent without the sense of darkness hanging over my mind. I felt extremely stabilized and back to my normal postitive upbeat self. I was only supposed to try it out for a week. However I have to admit I was very reluctant to the thought of giving it up. Name withheld by request
When I first put on the meditation bangle I immediately noticed a strong sense of energy. It took a while to adjust to it, actually. But now I enjoy it and feel that it offers protection and better focus. M.R., San Marcos
From "That's over-the-top" to "You Can't have it back!" My friend Nick who has been in the ayurvedic gem business for over 25 years has created what is called a Power or Meditation Bangle, and although I had heard many accounts of profound responses several people had had, I was not interested because to me they 'looked' over the top garish(vanity over results!). I politely nodded when I heard of others experiences but had no desire to own one myself. When recently staying with Karen and Nick, Karen insisted I wear one for a while and see for myself. I agreed as she is a dear friend and her kindness, knowledge in the wellness world and generosity has been so appreciated. NOTHING except a tingle here or there, but definitely not enough to want to purchase something I didn't really like. But she is my friend so I kept it on even though each day she asked if I was feeling its effects and I had to say, 'No, not really.' Sunday I was having breakfast with my daughters and some friends, and they were having a good laugh at my very large bangle. "Yes," I said, "reminds me of our lives in the Temple of Isis". I shared some of the stories and even confessed my need to overcome my misconceptions about this type of crystal, but revealed that I didn't feel much and perhaps that was because I had been wearing a Navaratna or Vedic Astrological Bangle for a couple years which I had purchased from Nick as he was the only gem dealer I knew I could trust, and that I had integrated and aligned some much of my energy already. I told Alisha to try it on, as she was the one that was having the biggest laugh. Immediately her arm reacted as did my daughter Kristine's. Alisha,http://tranquilityretreats.com/ asked if she could borrow it for a while. I was glad to grant her this request as twice I tried to give it back to Karen but failed. Perfect excuse! NOPE. Karen quickly whipped out another bangle and slipped it on my arm. "You can't be without one." Busted. I was leaving in a few days and I knew at that time I needed to give it back or pay for it, which I would just honestly be able to say, "I didn't really feel much so I think I will pass." And it would be done. NOPE! That night for some strange reason I couldn't wait to go to meditate. I had recently realized, that I had been once again meditating daily-- morning and evening and even going to the Meditation Gardens overlooking the ocean at SRF Encinitas--and, really looking forward to each opportunity. I did not contribute this to the meditation bangle, I just figured that since my home was sold and things had settled it was easy to do--I had given no credit to the bangle whatsoever. I relaxed, closing my eyes and crossing my legs ready for meditation--with one deep breath I seemed to be immediately transported to the most over-the-top blissful, energetic yet peaceful place I have ever gone to--especially that quickly! I wanted to rejoice, yell out to share the experience of such divine feelings of connectedness--but could not--transfixed and this blissful state for well over 2 hours. The next morning I looked at Karen and said, "You CAN'T have it back!" I have since deepened my meditations daily and meditation has become my 'coffee fix', "I have to have it--it has become a top priority to my daily life and because of it I am feeling so much more connected to the moment and the requests of each second of my life. http://meditationbangles.com/ and tell Nick, "The skeptic sent you!".

I have been wearing astrological bangles of various sorts for about 30 years. I started out with a metal bangle made out of 1 ounce each of gold, copper and silver. The benefits of wearing this metal bangle were subtle - it seemed to help me physically and emotionally but the effects were not very dramatic. A number of years later I began wearing a traditional navaratna, a nine gem bangle. As soon as I put the navaratna on, it was like I had stuck my finger in a light socket. There was an immediate noticeable increase in my mental clarity and acuity. Over time I became accustomed to this enhanced mental ability and only noticed the effect of the bangle as a result of my decreased mental acuity on the rare occasions that I took the bangle off for an extended period of time.
