SPEAKERS

Kulap Vilaysack, SuChin Pak

SuChin Pak  00:11

Hey everyone, welcome back to another edition of ADD TO CART. A show about the things we buy and buy into and what it says about who we are. I am SuChin Pak.

Kulap Vilaysack

and I’m Kulap Vilaysack. Good adding that little bit I forgot about that little tag, SuChin. I mean, I do that every week.

SuChin Pak 

Just in case. It’s a good reminder. I know we’re good 6 plus months in.

Kulap Vilaysack 

That’s a key. That is a key I forgot. How are you doing this week? Oh, did I say that I’m Kulap Vilaysack?

SuChin Pak 

I would know because I can’t remember things anymore. I got my second shot two days ago. And about two hours after that shot. Somebody went around town and just turned off the lights one by one. And said, they just went around my house. They said this light and this light. And it was that way. It was just a slow fade into oblivion. 24 hours plus, I’m just getting out of it. I’m still fever sweating. Do you know that like, that fever sweat.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Well, I know that you’re not exaggerating, because we did not text, we had a full-on conversation on the phone. And that you thought it was digital. Does really speak to something.

SuChin Pak

I mean, listen, this is another level of fogginess. and you know, just not feeling well in general. And which got me to thinking as I was having a severe flu like symptoms, by the way, guys, if you’re considering not getting your shot because of this story, don’t be stupid, okay? I mean, 24 hours later, I am up and running at 80% I would say and doing very well. Thank you very much.

Kulap Vilaysack  02:02

That’s a good thing to know.

SuChin Pak 

Yes, during the last 24 hours let me paint a picture. In my bed moaning, like that, like a goat being led astray. And just laying in my own pile of drool, sweat, urine. Did I put a pad on? I was so tired and weak. I had to poise it up. I didn’t just freefall into the mattress.

Kulap Vilaysack 

No, you put a poise pad like a poised woman would.

SuChin Pak 

Did I consider at one point taking off the poise pad and flinging it across the room?

Kulap Vilaysack 

Too much effort. Did you think ahead of time and had an extra poise pad nestled beside your pillow to replace?

SuChin Pak 

I went to the bathroom. The first shivering. Do you know when it’s like you’re in a fever? You can’t. It’s not possible to be this cold. Like bone marrow quivering in its chamber. I don’t know if bone marrow is in a chamber. Chamber quivering. Like teeth chattering. I went to the bathroom. I said this chant happen again. When I went to the bathroom, I said, get you a stack of poise pads. I put one on, I took a stack to my room. I left stacks along the way. In case I somehow drag myself out of my bed. Like a gingerbread crumb of poise pads in case. But as I’m laying there, just profoundly soiled..

Kulap Vilaysack 

[laughs] I’m sorry, that escaped, go on.

SuChin Pak  04:03

Profoundly soiled, upset, n so much pain. I was thinking, dear Kulap, what kind of sick person are you? I am the type of sick person where I start drawing up my will. I have a set of vintage gold rings I want my daughter to have. And the infrared sauna shall go to my friend Annie. You know what I mean? Like I get sooo. Well, she  sat in my infrared sauna and said, wow, I want one of these. And so I thought in my delirium, I will give that, I will leave that for her upon my deathbed. I’m so dramatic. I’m so over the top.

Kulap Vilaysack 

You know, I do hope though that you have done some after death planning for your family though. It’s really important. You know, maybe I’ll just remind you later that this is something that you and Mike should get into.

SuChin Pak 

Have you met Mike? I mean, we did this before. Before we even had a future. He just wanted to lay it out on the line of what it would take for me to enter this marriage legally and I said, where do I sign?

Kulap Vilaysack 

No, I have not met Mike, but I look forward to hopefully.

SuChin Pak 

But I’d like to itemize my will, you know, that’s just like a hey, here’s a general pod it goes to the kids but when I’m sick, I like to go through each and every one of my belongings. I’d assign them to the people I love because I’m a dramatic sick person. So, Kulap, what about you?

Kulap Vilaysack 

I wouldn’t say that I’m dramatic. And I also I rarely get sick. I don’t mean to brag. It’s just these dams facts. Dams are facts.

SuChin Pak 

So you’re one of those just quiet, cheery, sick people?

Kulap Vilaysack 

No, I wouldn’t say that. I’m cheery. I’m definitely like a bit of a loaf. I get ready to be at the TV. Scott needs to look in on me once in a while. But I’m fine. You know, my body needs to recharge. We need to go to one. But, you know, unless I’m in like pain, like post IVF you know, egg retrieval. And even then I’m all right. I’m okay.

SuChin Pak  06:28

So you’ve never asked your partner to change their flight. Because you couldn’t possibly be left alone in your flu like symptoms. That’s never happened? Because that’s happened to me quite a bit. When Mike and I used to date we lived in LA and I lived in New York and I remember one time I got the flu in New York and he came to visit and I was doing what I do that and the will and the crying and the weepy. And he had a flight to catch and I begged him to change the flight. And he did and that’s why we’re married.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Wow. I mean, that’s lovely. I would say that. You’re a big baby. You get sick like I would say a man get sick, like a big big baby.

SuChin Pak 

Oh my god, you’re totally right.

Kulap Vilaysack 

And a big big baby who needs to wear a diaper.

SuChin Pak 

It’s so on point for me though, cuz I’m a man baby just in life. And here I am a man baby sick. Oh my God, Kulap. You’re totally right. I’m such a man, baby. I think about my dad. It reminds me speaking of sick man babies. It’s like every time my dad gets sick. It’s so irritating to me. Because he gives up on life. I’m like, dad, you have to live. Okay, you know, it’s, uh, you have a sinus infection. Like, stop. I mean, he just all the will in his body, his limbs. You know what I mean? A Kimbo drain out. He gives up on life day one. And it’s just so annoying to watch. You’re like just a spray some nose spray like he does not.

Kulap Vilaysack  08:09

I hear the sound of Mike Bender’s head shaking, nodding so aggressively.

SuChin Pak 

Oh, he knows. He knows. I have to find. I mean, I won’t share it with the public. But maybe I’ll share it with you. Yeah, of course I’ll share with you. I remember one time he recorded me when I was sick. And we were visiting his parents. And it was like some sort of must have been some like Thanksgiving or some holiday weekend. We were at his parents’ house. And I have a recording of me in a delirium telling him about all the things and who they should go to and him just laughing.

SuChin Pak 

It was the weekend as he likes to call it where the lady in white because I was wearing a white robe everywhere and just dragging myself around trying to find anyone who would listen to my wailing.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Like a Korean ghost.

SuChin Pak 

Yeah, anyway, that’s been my 48 hours, but I’m coming out of it. bigger, better and more man baby than you can ever imagine.

Kulap Vilaysack 

We do we want to come out of that, SuChin. We don’t want to expand that.

SuChin Pak 

Oh, really? Oh, well, that’s just me. That’s a chicken again.

Kulap Vilaysack

I would like to start off with Olivia Rodriguez debut breakout and break up album Sour. Now, SuChin we talked about driver’s license before, do you remember that?

SuChin Pak 

You have talked about it. You have raved about it. You have loved it from the very beginning, by the way.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Wait, that was only four months ago. So this album is so good. So I said it was breakup album and it’s said to be about Joshua Bassett. And that’s Rodrigo’s Disney plus show High School Musical: The Musical, the series co-star who is now linked to another Disney star. So SuChin, just what I picture in my mind is he breaks up with her.

SuChin Pak  10:16

Wait, I’m Google imaging right now.

Kulap Vilaysack

I want to know what it looks like too, please.

SuChin Pak 

I mean, I don’t know Josh. But Joshua, this is the best thing that’s ever happened to you. I mean, no shade to Josh.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Well, definitely the best thing that the breakup is the best thing that happened to Olivia because they’re still shooting the show. I think they’re in Season 2. Can you imagine showing up on set?

SuChin Pak 

Are you kidding me? By the way, Joshua Bassett, you can thank her with a dozen roses every single day of your life for making him so relevant.

Kulap Vilaysack 

But people aren’t going to look at him nicely.

SuChin Pak 

Again, they’re looking, aren’t they?

Kulap Vilaysack 

Yeah. I mean, at the end of the day, I think his story will that that’s the best part of it. It’s like what did you, what do you up to, what’s been going on with you? I wrote a hit single that blew up into a full album. And everybody on set from you know, top of the line number one in the call sheet to the PA knows it’s about you, Joshua. How’s it going with the new girlfriend? It’s amazing. So the album is filled up with like, breakup bangers wrecked relationship ruminations. They’re all titled in all lowercase, brutal, traitor, one step forward, three steps back enough for you.

SuChin Pak 

This is how you deal with a breakup. Do you feel like she this almost feels like and that’s why it’s so authentic in so many ways. And I’m only saying this as I’m hearing the news from you, because I did not know that even this album was out. But when you say that it almost feels like she just wrote what she wanted to write in her feelings. Not really planning this like huge album. This is like, this is exactly what you would do with a teen if you decided to record some songs about a guy who broke your heart in your bedroom.

Kulap Vilaysack  12:30

I mean, look, when I was 18, and stuff like that happened to me, I didn’t have that ability. I didn’t have the words brutal, traitor, I didn’t have the emotional intelligence to kind of like trying to figure that stuff out. Like, I do respect the alchemy of it all. I’m going to take my garbage, I’m going to spin it into some sort of gold, right? And I’m going to get my digs in and I’m going to own things and I’m not you know, I mean, it’s not just like it’s a complete like, you ought to know Alanis Morissette, which I still love.

Kulap Vilaysack

There’s moments of like contemplation and self-reflection as well. While getting her you know, knives out. Yeah, that’s right. So I wanted to play one of the songs, which is it’s an outlier. It’s the end track and it hit me different this morning. It’s different than the other songs. It’s not about the breakup. And it got me and I read a review that was like this track. I think it’s probably most people, their least favorite, I would guess. And it’s maybe more close to her Disney roots. But I responded to it. And so I’m gonna play a little bit right now. Okay, okay, this song is Hope You’re Okay.

SuChin Pak 

Is that a sincere Hope You’re okay?

Kulap Vilaysack 

It is.

Kulap Vilaysack  14:45

I’m crying. Oh wow.

SuChin Pak 

She’s so young. But it’s like she’s able to articulate, right? A lifetime of emotions because cuz, man, you and I are in our 40s. And we relate to that in a way that she probably does relate to as well, you know what I mean? I’m not even gonna put a pastor to be like, you don’t even know what this means. I think she does know what it means. That’s why I think she’s a star, you know?

Kulap Vilaysack 

SuChin truly, like, I heard the song and I was like, Oh, my God. And then she’s like, I hope you’re okay. And I’m like, I am Olivia. Thank you for asking.

SuChin Pak 

I’m not […] a comeback. It’s still a very creepy in here. I can’t wait to devour this album in my bed and all my bodily fluids. It’s gonna be so good. This is what I’m doing with the rest of my afternoon. Because after I record, I’m crawling into bed. And I’m going to listen to this album,

Kulap Vilaysack 

What I don’t look back, and I’m glad I don’t feel any more are these like emotional swings. Like, I’m so glad that I have moved past that, you know, pass those in a way. And in the sense of that I’m able to kind of have a little perspective like, I don’t like dwell so much in those feelings. But there is something about tapping into that time, tapping into when Scott dumped me when I was 21 and tore my heart asunder.

SuChin Pak  16:30

Please tell me that was the last time he did that.

Kulap Vilaysack 

It’s true. It’s true. It was the last, and I made sure that.. Let’s take a quick break. And then you will tell me what you’ve been adding to cart.

Kulap Vilaysack

We are back, SuChin. What did you add?

SuChin Pak 

Well, I haven’t been adding very much as you know, I have been in a delirium of a dramatic state. So all of the things I’ve brought to cart have actually been things that other guests, or, you know, people on our Instagram feeds have recommended to us. And when Laura is was here last, she recommended this thing, the TOMORION2 Evimierok. And she has raved about this thing. So I got my hands on one. And what it essentially is, is a quote unquote, natural heating pad, you heat it up for just six minutes, and then you bring it into bed with you and the thing stays warm all night long, it gets burning hot, and then it slowly kind of cools off. But the whole point of it is that it has a different kind of heat than an electric heating pad. And this is an infrared heat. So it has all of these kinds of healing properties and things that have to do with negative ions. And, you know, there’s no EMF and it’s supposed to help relieve pain and stress and flexibility.

Kulap Vilaysack  18:20

It’s not just infrared heat, it’s far infrared heat.

SuChin Pak

Yes. Well, that’s what they promise and I can just tell you what my experience of this is. So I busted this out. When I was going through my fever, my fever cycle of chills and sweats and chills and sweats. When nothing was warming me up, two pairs of socks on two sweatshirts, you know the whole thing that you do when you’re so cold. And so I heated this up and I brought it into my bed. And I cannot tell you the amount of heat that comes out of this tiny little stone and you put it anywhere in the bed. It doesn’t matter. It’s too hot to even at first been on your body. It was the only thing that could get my body warm enough to then regulate itself and then the fever would break and then I would regulate and fever would break. And I’m hooked. It’s a very specific product. Because this is a lifestyle, it’s a commitment. And I have wedded myself to my Evimierok. So we are now together.

SuChin Pak 

Did you say wedded or wetted? As in? I’ve wetted myself on my point poise pad?

SuChin Pak 

Well, they’re one in the same. You know when I commit to you. I commit to your body mind, soul, spirit and fluid. Wishes, say congratulate us, me and my Evimierok. We did the thing where this past weekend and now we’re together for life. What did you add?

Kulap Vilaysack  20:09

Oh, SuChin you’ve been waiting for this with bated breath. You’ve been dying to talk to me about Dane products. Oh, week, every week. When are we going to talk about Dame? When are we going to talk about the arousal serum? Come on. Let’s talk about the pillow for sex. You won’t shut up about it. You’re constantly like, let me hear it.

SuChin Pak

I did ask once very weakly, and with zero enthusiasm. I said, how’s your day going? And you promise all right, let’s hear it. I’m big girl. I got my I got my heat rock.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Yeah, heat rock. Okay, so Dame is has been one of our sponsors. They’re an amazing company. The designs great guys.

SuChin Pak 

And what a name, Dame, such a cute name, but go on. What do they do?

Kulap Vilaysack 

Great design, vibe, it’s got that millennial vibe. SuChin I am officially known as a geriatric millennial. And I’m like, why do you have to do that? Why do you have to call me that? That’s like, not cool. Any who, it’s a design that my fellow millennials would love. Right? And so the people at Dame are so kind to let you and I pick some items, they give us a spending limit. They give us a bit of a budget.

SuChin Pak 

I have to be honest; I had a lot of trouble spending that money there. But I did.

Kulap Vilaysack 

I don’t think anyone is surprised by that. Or I’ll speak for myself. I want to first talk about the arousal serum, SuChin.

SuChin Pak  22:10

Now while I’m only at half capacity. So I can’t fight back. You don’t even have to hold me down. You can just spray this all over me. What is it?

Kulap Vilaysack 

SuChin, it’s a one-ounce bottle. It’s 30 bucks. It is a pH balance formula. Natural ingredients. You love natural ingredients. And it awakens your clitoris.

SuChin Pak 

Oh right. That’s enough.

Kulap Vilaysack 

A warm tingle.

SuChin Pak

Stop.

Kulap Vilaysack

A warm tingle and I can attest it is a warm tingle, SuChin.

SuChin Pak 

By the way, Georgia, Molly, which one of your babies is either a testing or protesting I’m not sure.

Kulap Vilaysack 

SuChin, One pump heightens awareness. It stirs the nerve endings. To what end, SuChin. And why? To increase pleasure.

SuChin Pak 

I think it’s plezier.

Kulap Vilaysack 

SuChin, we gotta be serious big girl pants now. It’s good. It works. It feels nice. It feels really nice. It feels nice for just you if it’s just you and your Evimierok.

SuChin Pak 

Okay, I don’t want to know which one felt good for you.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Both, I’m trying to say both. Both felt good.

SuChin Pak 

Oh, great. I’m so happy for you.

Kulap Vilaysack

It was a warm, tingly.

SuChin Pak 

Oh, got that. Did you massage it directly on?

Kulap Vilaysack  24:04

Yeah, I’m not gonna put on my tongue, SuChin.

SuChin Pak 

Well, I was just gonna say, I mean, it’s a serum. You could put it on your face. I don’t know. I mean, so natural.

Kulap Vilaysack 

SuChin, there are serums from all different parts of bodies.

SuChin Pak 

Okay, so you did this and you did it with your partner. And it was better than you should?

Kulap Vilaysack

I’ve done it without my partner. I’ve done it with my partner and guys. I give it all my fingers. SuChin? Come back.

SuChin Pak 

You guys stop. Okay. Okay, all right. I got my big girl pads on. All right. Cool. I’m happy for you Kulap.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Well. Another item that I’ve added to cart is the pillo…

SuChin Pak 

I have that, I have that too.

Kulap Vilaysack 

The pillow and the sub title is pillow for sex. It’s a soft, yet firm pillow for sex that supports you at every angle. And so it can elevate your favorite positions. And it seamlessly blends into your bedroom at nap time. And the best part of it SuChin right, you recall in the box, it has drawings of like different sex positions. And there’s, you know, from the back from the side, you know, we’re will barrel plow, and then there’s one where it’s a girl with her computer on it.

SuChin Pak 

It’s the perfect angle as a laptop pillow. It has a nice firm density to it. It sits just right. The liner is water resistant.

Kulap Vilaysack  26:09

Yeah, you can wash it, too.

SuChin Pak 

It’s got grabbable handles.

Kulap Vilaysack 

I used it. As you did, I had a heavy, hard covered comic book. It’s a big, big one a big trade that I read off it, but also I used it during sex. And SuChin, it has spiced up my love life.

Kulap Vilaysack 

He doesn’t know if I’m talking about him. I’m not saying names. He that shall not be named.

SuChin Pak 

Really gave it to me on that pillow. Ku, no, you’re not allowed. You can’t. Are you walking around? Are you walking around swinging your arms holding this thing around the house just as like a visual reminder. Pillow time. See like, oh yeah, it’s pillow time. Wow.

Kulap Vilaysack 

It really has spiced up. We are getting in angles. We are grabbing the sides. You brought up that handholds. I highly recommend it is what I’m trying to say.

SuChin Pak 

That sounds fun. I tried you screwed it up. I said, I’ve tried to, see, you making me seem like I can’t be serious about stuff like that.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Well, SuChin. I want you to I think what I just witnessed was Claire, our producer highlighting those two items. And then I think she’s saving them so that she can purchase. I think that’s what I just witnessed. Claire.

Kulap Vilaysack  28:19

There’s one item I haven’t fully tried yet. It’s the EVA 2 Hands-Free Vibrator and now SuChin. I would like you to hit that link and describe the demo animation for me please. What’s happening? Tell me what’s happening.

SuChin Pak 

Well, it looks like a turkey.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Okay, I hadn’t thought about that. Until I saw it. I got the one that’s a nice. The color is fur as in like for evergreen. You’re talking about quartz. But now. It does look like a turkey. Okay, so let’s so you scroll down. And then you see sort of like the animation of how to put it on, what’s happening, SuChin.

SuChin Pak 

Then there’s the turkey. The Turkey is go, What the f being? What, what? Wait, what? Wait, can I go back on that? And can you pause? No, you can’t possibly know how this works. There’s you can’t you cannot. There’s the vulva, right? And then it goes in between and then it flexes its arm and vibrates.

Kulap Vilaysack 

So the great thing about this SuChin, is if it just solo played solo play, but you can still have intercourse. Don’t look away SuChin, you got to stay present.

SuChin Pak 

I don’t I’m just trying to figure out where the arms are going on this thing.

Kulap Vilaysack 

It’s grabbing under the folds and it’s holding within the fold You’re nestled in; you turn it on there and for some reason it makes your pubes fall of.

SuChin Pak  30:10

Okay, great. So that’s coming.

Kulap Vilaysack 

So it’s here. I need to charge it. I keep forgetting about it.

SuChin Pak 

How big is it?

Kulap Vilaysack

It’s not that big. It’s got to nestle under your labia. So like when you’re in adventurous position SuChin you only need the help of like a single finger to stay secure, you know, I’m saying. So it’s like you can use it on your own. Anytime you might want your hands to be free. You’re multitasking. Maybe you’re responding to some emails or a text from your friends, SuChin?

SuChin Pak 

Can you get me out of this screen, please? This is on the loop. I can’t even concentrate on what you’re saying. Oh, well. All right.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Do you have anything to add? Or to? Any thoughts that you wanted? Anything that wasn’t brought up? Or just reminded you of something in your life?

SuChin Pak 

When I tell you, it is ringing no bells. Not one. Not one memory. Not one relatable cell. It’s a complete silence. I have nothing. I’m so sorry. I want to help you. That sounds like..

Kulap Vilaysack 

You already said that. Say something different. You say something different before we go into break.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Sounds good.

Kulap Vilaysack

We’ll be right back on Add To Cart in just a few. Welcome back to Add to Cart. SuChin, finish us off. Didn’t we lose everyone? I lost my you, I lost our entire audience. Oh, no. I think that’s entirely possible.

SuChin Pak  32:19

No, just the segment that’s like me just dried up in and just, you know, barely clocking in here. All right. If you’re tuning in just to the third segment, I need for you to rewind and catch the second before because none of this will make sense. Okay, so I do have one more Add To Cart. I do think it’s interesting that when you and I get together to do this show, neither one of us knows what scoring will bring into the cart. And yet time and time again. Things somehow fall into similar themes. Like do you notice that we would let’s like we’re on the same wavelength. So while you were doing those things in bed, and by those things I need for you to rewind to this last segment.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Do you need me to say them again?

SuChin Pak

Nobody does. So while you were doing that, and I’m in my bed and other bodily fluids. So both of us just in our beds doing various things.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Both very sweaty.

SuChin Pak 

Both very sweaty with that. I have also added and I said this earlier? My carts today. I have I’ve been influenced if you will, you know they have been things that other guests have recommended and I’ve been trying. And So Lauren Lapkus came on. And she came on with a whole bunch of things, but I was very intrigued and most excited about this Sleep Crown Pillow. Okay, so let me tell you guys what it is. For those of you who missed that episode. Oh God, how do you describe this thing, Kulap. It is made out of clouds. It’s made out of clouds.

SuChin Pak  34:31

It’s both heavy and light. I don’t know what it is. It’s something in there. It’s a kind of weight that is so hard to describe because it’s not heavy, but there’s a weight to it. You guys. It’s confusing on purpose because you’re not supposed to know and it’s shaped like okay, so imagine a rectangle regular pillow shape, but with a semi-circle round notch. Cut out of it so that you can put it on your face and cover your eyes. But your nose and your mouth are outside of the pillow.

Kulap Vilaysack 

Yes, so it’s an over the head pillow.

SuChin Pak 

Yes, it’s an over the head pillow. Now, up until this point, I had never even thought that there was such a product for over the head pillow people like me. Nor did I think that they were enough people out there who liked an over the head pillow. I’ve always been a sleeper like a burrower. You know, like a little mole rat, I like to keep I like to put as much weight on top of me as possible head to toe. My daughter is the same exact way. And this is revolutionary for people like me, because you always have to like, somehow make a little breathing hole in your pillow burrow. But this already does it and then it has a kind of weight that doesn’t slip off of you.

SuChin Pak 

So I use it for my meditation practice. It’s great, because it leaves me right into naptime. So we go from meditation straight into a great nap. And then also at night, it has been a source of contention between my daughter and I, since the pandemic we are in a rental, which is two bedrooms. So Mike takes Kai, I take Zoe and I’ve been sharing my bed with my daughter, who loves this pillow, she has named it heaven.

Kulap Vilaysack  36:30

That’s so nice.

SuChin Pak

Where is Heaven? Can I have heaven tonight. So we have to make trades. And usually she starts off with heaven. And then I have to steal it, I have to whip it out of her grip in the middle of the night so that I can have heaven and sleep. And so I would also say, for anyone who has a kid who kind of has trouble settling down, she’s a great sleeper when she does, but she kind of gets, she gets anxious. I have noticed with Heaven, that when she gets to sort of snuggle with it, she’s out like a light.

Kulap Vilaysack

She’s snuggling it, she’s not putting it over her face.

She’s not putting it over her face. But that’s the thing. It’s made out of this material that’s almost like a stuffed animal. But it’s not even as dense as that. And so that’s a side sort of benefit from this thing. And I have waited to talk about this because it’s a genuine love fest over this sleep crown pillow between my kids and myself. But I have to tell you that I’ve tried sleep masks, and I have all of them. I have the adjustable ones, I have the silk ones, I have the ones that look like a bra, you know. And it’s something about the weight of this, that kind of puts you in a state. It’s something about pressing on that that kind of calms the sort of, you know, rambling thoughts that you can often get when you’re meditating.

And I find that if you put something a little bit of a weight on your forehead, for me, at least, I can get into a meditation much easier. But anyway, that’s Lauren, put us on to this. It’s such an unusual product. Yeah, I don’t even know if other places do this type of thing. But it’s kind of fantastic. If you’re one of those people that likes to sleep with pillows all around your head. And I guess there are more people like that. I always thought that I was unusual.

I mean, it says that it blocks natural and artificial light and muffles ambient sound and it gives gentle pressure over the head and it’s very relaxing to the body. I wasn’t something like that. I use it like you do sometimes, but I also do use it like Zoey as well. And just like hold it like, hold it like a little bear. And my dogs love it too. Everybody loves it.

SuChin Pak 

Yeah, it’s a very soothing weight and texture and tactile feeling to it. That’s very hard to describe but it is very soothing. I don’t know how these people came up with it, but it’s pretty genius.
