Forest Block

A tactile reminder that calm isn’t a luxury, it’s a performance tool. Carved with the Japanese hiragana やすらぎにねざす (yasuragi ni nezasu), which means “rooted in calm,” this block keeps your reminder front and center. Touch its smooth surface and add up to 3 drops of hinoki to the top. As the oil dries, lift it to your nose, breathe deeply and reset to calm. 

Hinoki oil sold separately. 

6.5W X 7.5T X 2.25W (dimensions in mm)

1. Keep this piece on your desk, nightstand, or anywhere you need a visual reminder that calm is intentional.

2. Run your fingers over the smooth wood and feel the subtle engraving of the word “calm,” the hiragana やすらぎにねざす, and our logo.

3. Set it down and add 1-3 drops of hinoki essential oil to the top surface.

4. Pick it back up and bring it close to your nose.

5. While you inhale, practice the 4-4-4-4 breathing method: Inhale for 4 seconds, Hold for 4 seconds, Exhale for 4 seconds, Hold for 4 seconds.

6. Repeat whenever you need another moment of calm.

HOW WE MAKE FOREST BLOCK

Every block is made during a quiet moment in our workshop, where woodworking itself becomes a calming ritual. We begin by laser cutting each shape from locally sourced wood (hinoki coming soon). Next, we engrave the word “calm,” the hiragana やすらぎにねざす and our logo. Then we sand every surface until it’s smooth and carve a shallow well on top for your hinoki oil.
