SoulStones: Because Life is Stressful

RYE, N.Y. - Dec. 8, 2015 - PRLog -- Rye, New York (WEB) December 8^th, 2015 – On the heels of a successful Kickstarter crowd-funding campaign that hit over 150% of it’s funding goal, SoulStones.com has officially launched. SoulStones are hand-crafted worry stones that can help to reduce stress and anxiety. Each SoulStone is a piece of porcelain covered in a layer of glass. They’re beautiful to look at and feel awesome in the hand. And because SoulStones are handmade, each one is unique and has its own personal character. We think of them as small works of art.

SoulStones are glazed in one of seven colors, each of which is linked to a specific emotion based on the Psychology of Color. Orange represents confidence, red promotes energy, blue triggers serenity….and so on. While rubbing a SoulStone, people are encouraged to reflect on its associated value. It takes ten individual steps to create a SoulStone, from the initial molding to the final sanding. This process can take up to 14 days.

SoulStones was founded by Conner Sexton, a 17-year-old high school student from Rye, NY. Conner conceived of SoulStones when he was given a worry stone at a restaurant. At the time, he didn't even know what a worry stone was, but what he did know was that rubbing that stone helped him to relieve anxiety. It occurred to Conner that if that stone could help him, it could probably help a lot of other people as well. He’d always been interested in entrepreneurship and thought it would be a great experience to learn how to build a business from the ground up that produced a product that did good. So that’s what he did.

Worry stones date back to the Ancient Greeks and have been used in many cultures around the world including Native American and Ottoman. Conner believes that worry stones have been around for so long because they work. They’re an all-natural way to combat stress and anxiety. Anxiety is a widespread problem in the U.S. with more than 40 million people suffering from anxiety disorders according to the Anxiety Disorders Association of America. “I’ve heard from people as far away as New Zealand that tell me about how anxiety is a real problem in their lives and how SoulStones are helping them to cope,“ says SoulStones founder Conner Sexton.

SoulStones can be purchased at www.SoulStones.com. Conner looks forward to building his business while helping people at the same time.
