UPRIGHT POSTURE TRAINER
This wearable technology helps people improve the way they sit and
stand. Upright is a small device that attaches to the lower back and
employs smart sensors to vibrate when the user slouches. With nearly
nine hours a day spent sitting, 40 percent of Americans experience head,
back, or neck pain—and the leading cause is poor posture. Available for
$129.95 at www.uprightpose.com.

hours. Available with amethyst, aquamarine, bloodstone,
citrine, rose quartz, and tiger eye and presented in a
13-ounce glass tumbler with brushed metal lid. Retails
