A Sadhu board is a time-tested tool for working with the body and inner energy, as well as a modern trend for thrill-seekers. It is also known as the "fire board".
The practice of standing or lying on nails dates back to ancient times when yogis and Taoist monks used the Sadhu board for meditation to resolve deep karmic issues.
In esotericism, it is believed that during the practice on the nail board, the awakening of fiery energy occurs, moving upward from the feet to the crown, removing blocks and pinches. So, who would benefit from the nail board?
Who will benefit from the Sadhu board?
For those who work a lot: The Sadhu board can be beneficial for those who often experience fatigue, concentration problems, or memory decline. It helps improve blood circulation, stimulate lymph flow, increase performance and endurance, allowing you to work more effectively and recover energy after a busy day.
For those searching for themselves: For people seeking self-awareness and harmony, the Sadhu board can be a valuable tool. It helps overcome challenging emotional states, manage stress, and adapt to it, releasing the body from physical and mental constraints by achieving complete relaxation after intense tension.
For athletes: For those leading an active lifestyle or engaging in sports, the Sadhu board can be beneficial for recovery after physical exertion. It improves circulation, relieves muscle tension, and aids in quick energy recovery.
For active and creative individuals: The Sadhu board is also suitable for those who care about their personal development. This practice helps develop willpower, the ability to control the mind and emotions, and fosters deep self-awareness and harmony. Standing on nails and going through the emotional stages of accepting the inevitable (denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance) helps learn how to work with emotions and obstacles. This approach promotes personal growth, inner resilience, and balance.
Thus, the Sadhu board is an important tool for those who strive to improve the quality of their lives through the development of the body, mind, and spirit. It not only enhances physical health but also balances emotional states and strengthens inner fortitude.
Which Sadhu board to choose?
One of the key aspects of choosing is the distance between the nails, known as the nail step.
For pain-sensitive beginner women who are afraid to stand on nails, we recommend choosing a board with a nail step of 8 mm for a slightly gentler contact with the nails. At the same time, a 10 mm step is suitable for most beginners, which will also ensure a comfortable entry into the practice of standing on nails.
If you already have experience standing on nails, the standard distance between the nails — 12 mm — will suit you. Practicing on the standard board will help strengthen your physical and psychological health, as well as enter a state of complete immersion "here and now".
For those seeking new emotions and sensations for their body, wanting to reboot their nervous system, or aiming to reach a new level in their practice, we offer boards for pros with a nail step of 15 mm. These boards are intended for those who can stand on nails for over 15 minutes at a time and are seeking much deeper immersion into the practice.
For professionals, "hard variants" with a nail step of 20 and 25 mm are also available, which represent the maximum challenge both physically and emotionally. These boards are intended for those who seek maximum immersion and deepening into the practice.
Choose a Sadhu board and open new horizons in your practice and life!
