Our Mission
Helping people get to the point of relaxation doesn’t feel like work when you’re doing it for the right reasons.
We use business as a force for good, and since 2014 we’ve shone a light on India, the ancient home of the bed of nails.
Whether that’s for the people who rely on Shakti tools, or the people who make them by hand in India, our mission is simple - Ignite the Good.

Our Values
Stay Sharp
Staying sharp is about personal growth. Aiming high, learning, and staying disciplined in the pursuit of hard things is the tried and tested path to personal betterment.
It's intentional action, usually uncomfortable, through which we learn & grow.
Care for the Collective
We grow so that we can ignite our capacity to do good for others - to care for the collective. In this way goodness is a ripple effect that ignites like a fire.
A group that looks to maximise the amount of good it can produce.
Enjoy the Ride
We’re here to enjoy the ride, no matter how spikey it gets. Goodness isn’t just about impact and outcomes – it’s about how we approach our life and work.
Playfulness, authenticity, and weirdness ignite good in ourselves, and in others.
