As neuroscience continues to reveal how closely the body and brain are connected, one thing is clear: there is a indisputable pathway between the brain and the skin. What our mind experiences often manifests in the body, and the signals we send through our skin, our body, our senses, and our daily rituals have a profound impact on how we seek pleasure, feel, function, and rest.

This Works products are designed to hack this body-mind pathway, using aroma, touch, and sensorial pleasure to send positive, calming signals back to the brain. When the body experiences comfort, safety, and ease, the nervous system responds, slowing down, softening, and creating the right conditions for calm, deep rest, and restorative sleep.

"Body positivity and body neutrality are on a scale – we might move between both, or we might land more naturally on one, than the other – and this is okay, really it’s about what works best for you.

Body positivity is acceptance of all body types, embracing and loving our body, rejecting diet culture, and having a positive body image no matter whether we fit society's ideals.

Body neutrality is moving away from a belief system that our body equals our worth and instead being more accepting of it. When we are more accepting of our body, and don’t place so much pressure on ourselves for how it looks and meeting ourselves with compassion, we can access improved results in things like body image.

When we’re not caught up in how our body looks and seeing our body as an improvement project, we can connect to what’s important to us and enjoy our bodies for their function. For example, we find movement as a way of connecting with the joy of dance and movement, rather than trying to change our body.
