"I just wanted to say thank you for your awesome products. You have made them something amazing for kids and adults. My daughter is sooo in love with her new weighted blanket and cushion! They have given her a beautiful sense of calm when it's needed.
Thank you so much for making amazing stuff. I will be back to get a new one for my son really soon. Your work is amazing and I'm so grateful for people like you that make our world so much brighter."

Dear Bliss,
I must say that I'm delighted by the works of your creativity, and at the same time I'm deeply moved.
I've purchased Furry Delights, weighted blankets and cushions, and I must say that I'm more than satisfied. Not only is your work beautiful, but it also turns that beauty into kindness towards others, by creating alternatives for those like me, with autism, and many others who struggle with disabilities, to show that helping is a magnificent and noble way to make the world colourful and worthy of living in.
Thank you for your beautiful and colourful work.

I absolutely love my Happy Senses weighted cushion! It's a really simple and effective calming tool that helps me feel in control of my stress levels. Lying down with it on my chest for five or ten minutes a day really helps me feel calm and centred, and I use it when I'm feeling stressed out as well as just whenever I want to relax and take a break.
​
I've showed so many of my friends who were all amazed at how relaxing it is to lie with the cushion on their chest. The soothing weight is perfect for helping me calm down and refocus after a long or stressful day, and it's also very comforting to sit with it on my lap if I'm ready or watching TV.

My Happy Senses weighted cushions and weighted blanket are among my absolute favourite sources of comfort and relief. The weighted blanket gives me warmth and a sense of safety when I'm feeling anxious or down, and the fur texture is distracting in the best possible sense! It evokes a meditative experience that soothes and quietens my mind and relaxes my body.
The cushions provide comfort in a similar way. When I'm restless, I will often put the cushion under my feet whilst sitting down, and press my toes into it to get energy out of my legs. But when I'm agitated, I will sit with the cushion on my lap and punch into it or squeeze it tightly against my chest. The release of restless energy hugely relieves stress and helps restore calm.
I absolutely love both my cushions and my blanket; they play a huge part in my mental health treatment, and enjoyment of life.

My goodness! I ordered a couple of little things to see how my mum (who has Lowy Body Dementia and Parkinson's) would react to them. I was blown away! She loved the fidget toys and focused on it for over an hour, the nurses at the facility were impressed. One of the residents who is quite able, just loved them as well... thank you Bliss!

Dear Bliss,
I just wanted to let you know that the weighted cushion that I purchased from you for my daughter has been a great success. Katelyn was immediately attracted to it as the cushion was in her favourite colours.
​
We explained to her that if she becomes angry or upset she can either cuddle the cushion or put it on her lap, so now when she gets angry she goes straight for the cushion and puts it on her lap.
We have noticed since she began using the cushion she has learned to settle herself down very quickly after a meltdown.
Thanks for helping our daughter and us!
