Rudraksha and Stress Control:
The Rudraksha beads are known to reduce stress levels by emitting positive vibrations that flush out all the negative energy in the wearer. Indian yogis of yore had tremendous control over their mind and body. Perhaps part of this achievement could be attributed to the Rudraksha malas that they wore.
Research has proved that the Rudraksha beads have certain amazing electromagnetic and accupressural properties. They control blood pressure, which in turn controls the heartbeat. Blood circulation is an indication of the physical and mental well being of a person. A normal blood circulation would thereby mean good physical and mental health. The Rudraksha has the power to make us feel light and tranquil, enhancing our sense of well being and our efficiency. They are known to be therapeutic in cases of depression, hypertension, insomnia and other neurotic illnesses. They help cure respiratory problems and joint pains. It is little wonder then that these marvellous beads were worshipped as God sent.

The Power of the Rudraksha:
Rudraksha beads are of 14 different types, differentiated by the number of faces. The Ek Mukhi bead is the most powerful and the rarest of all beads. The ek mukhi beads are known to boost the confidence and focus of the wearer and usher in material and financial betterment. Each of the other beads has a different function and is worn by the wearer for that particular power.
The Gourishankar Rudraksha is supposed to be in the form of the image of Lord Shiva and goddess Parvati. It is usually preserved in cupboards or kept in the place of worship.
