Fidget Magnets for Stress Relief
The terms “stress relief” and “rattlesnake eggs” seem like they should never be included in the same sentence. However, there is a way to marry the two in a somewhat unexpected way: through magnets (surprise!). Read on to learn how you can use these rattlesnake eggs as fidget magnets.
Between jobs, family, friends, and money, we all deal with stress from time to time. Managing stress is an extremely complex part of adult life and this emotion often presents itself physically. One of these is fidgeting. However, as we’ve seen with objects like fidget spinners, there are non-destructive ways to curb your body’s nerves.
Fidgeting Habits & You
Depending on who you speak to, fidgeting can be a subconscious movement to keep you focused on a current task. Others argue fidgeting represents a wandering mind. No matter the reason for why you fidget, it can make you feel more alert and often relieves stress.
A few manifestations of fidgeting include tapping a pencil, tapping your foot, excessively blinking your eyes, folding and unfolding your arms, or shifting weight from one side to the other. Fidgeting is a common symptom of many mental and behavioral disorders and may be more easily observed in people with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and other anxiety disorders.
There are many tools and gadgets available to help combat fidgeting for those that need to decrease symptoms. Fidget spinners are extremely popular with teenagers because they helps reduce stress and increase focus. Fidgeting has also been found to have a direct correlation to retention in a classroom setting. Magnetic rattlesnake eggs are another option that have been known to alleviate fidgeting and reduce stress.
Rattlesnake Egg Fidget Magnets to the Rescue
Rattlesnake eggs are a great fidget product. They are made out of hematite which makes the two magnets extremely attracted to each other. These magnets are great to roll around in your palms to satisfy fidgety habits, as well as improve concentration. Named after the rattling sound they make, these magnets are perfect to carry around on a daily basis for moments when you’re particularly stressed or need something to do with your hands for extra focus.
Please Note: Magnets, including rattlesnake eggs and other buzzing hematite, are not toys. Always use magnets responsibly and with adult supervision when necessary. Read the rest of our magnet safety tips for further guidance, or contact us with any questions or concerns.
