The Science
Why a ZenYogan Bracelet Can Be More Than a Bracelet
Your Bracelet is a mind–body support tool designed to help you reduce anxiety, ground yourself, and hold onto hope—based on real science and the timeless power of symbolism.
“Studies show short rituals lower anxiety and help people perform under pressure—even in lab tests that measure physiology.” - Harvard University & PubMed
The Bracelet That Anchors Courage
Symbolic Strength + Proven Science to Steady the Mind During Life’s Greatest Battles
  • Anchoring Rituals Reduce Anxiety
    Research shows that small, intentional rituals lower anxiety and help people perform under stress—whether it’s an athlete serving for match point or a patient walking into chemotherapy.
  • Meaningful Objects Boost Confidence
    Studies on “lucky charms” reveal that carrying a symbolic item increases self-belief and persistence—critical for maintaining hope through long treatments.
  • The Bracelet as a “Safety Signal”
    When paired with calming breath or affirmations, your bracelet becomes a learned cue for safety—helping your nervous system downshift from fear to calm.
  • 777 - Breath at 7 per Minute = Nervous System Reset
    Touching your bracelet while breathing slowly (in for 7 seconds, out for 7 × 7 times) activates the parasympathetic nervous system, improving heart-rate variability and reducing anxiety in as little as one minute.
  • Self-Affirmation Lowers Stress Hormones
    Pairing your bracelet ritual with a short affirmation (“I am loved. I am not alone. I can do hard things.”) can lower cortisol, helping your body cope with stress more effectively.
How to Use Your ZenYogan Bracelet for Calm
Your 2 Minute Anchor Ritual:
  1. Touch and firmly pinch the center lava bead with your thumb and index finger. Roll the bead slightly to feel how solid it is and discern between its bumps and texture.
  1. 777 -Breathe in for 7 seconds, out for 7 seconds × 7 breaths.
  1. Affirm: I am loved. I am not alone. I can do hard things.
  1. Visualize lava cooling into stone: “I am passing through the fire. I am becoming stronger.”
Repeat anytime anxiety or fear rises—before appointments, treatments, scans, or difficult conversations.
When you’re facing cancer or any medical challenge, anxiety and fear can arrive without warning. The ZenYogan Lava Bracelet is more than a piece of jewelry—it’s a scientifically grounded ritual tool that helps you calm your body, steady your mind, and remember:
"You will pass through the fire and emerge stronger—
just like the lava that became solid as stone."
