Shankha Marma
The temple
How to
Place two fingers on each temple, in the soft hollow beside the outer corner of the eye. Press gently and hold, or move in slow, small circles.
Benefits
- A widely used point for headache and eye strain relief
- Calming enough to use before sleep or during a stressful moment
- Combines well with a temple massage using both hands at once
Practice
Press or circle for 30-60 seconds, using gentle pressure only — this area is delicate.
