Promising review: "I love this because it's satisfying to check things off a list and to be able to see what you've done. I also love that when I'm finished with one day, I can scan and quickly see if I can get ahead somewhere else, including in the 'next week' square. It doesn't take up a ton of room on my desk like a desk calendar would, and it's not bulky like a lot of planners." —sassette00

Tryeh is a small business creating unique mugs, glasses, tumblers, and teapots!
Promising review: "I've been looking for the perfect infuser system for my morning tea, and this is pretty perfect. The tumbler is well insulated so it never gets too hot to handle. The infuser cup attaches to the lid and comes right off. The only down side is that the lid is not water tight, so make sure to have a long tea stirrer handy instead of shaking it to mix in other ingredients." —Bridget Fahey

Promising review: "This is a great and inexpensive ring light that allows you to attach your cell phone. Great for video calls, selfies, and doing your makeup. In this day of Zoom calls, it's nice to see what you will look like and be able to control it! It was extremely easy to set up right out of the box. It can be set up vertically or horizontally, and the tripod can be angled and rotated. There is also a remote that immediately paired up with my iPhone's Bluetooth for taking photos with my phone. All in all, I can tell that I will use this more than I thought I would!" —cindypoole

Promising review: "I’ve never been a 'morning person' and alarm clocks have historically been loud and obnoxious options to waking up, so I decided to try this. Now, it hasn’t made me suddenly cheerful in the morning, but it’s definitely a more calming alternative.
Other than the obvious reasons for trying this kind of clock, this particular one has many awesome settings! It has multiple levels of brightness and different colors. It can also double as a sound machine that can play soothing sounds at night. When using the alarm function, the sunrise comes on 10 minutes before the alarm goes off. You can also plug your phone into it for charging. I love the versatility of this alarm clock. You should get it." —JRRInBoston

Promising review: "We purchased these to help with meal prep ahead of time so that we can make a weeks worth of meals one day and portion them out over the week. These fit that need to a T. They help keep portion sizes under control because I can really eat if left to my vices. They reheat well and freeze well too." —Gene Rogers

So, I've tried three flavors (blackberry chai, peach ginger, and pomegranate hibiscus), and I can honestly say that Recess' special blend heightened my ability to focus and gave me a full-body sense of calm and relaxation. Plus, they're super delicious and made with organic ingredients. Win-win-win.

Promising review: "I’ve been experimenting with these for the last month and a half, and I am addicted. They are really thin and blend into my highly freckled face incredibly well...I have gone out in public twice with them on, because when I did my last second mirror check before I got out of the car, I didn’t notice I had them on! While they absolutely help clean out the skin underneath, the biggest thing it does for me is stops me from touching my face. When I'm stressed out, I will absentmindedly touch/run my hands along my face and jaw constantly. Now, when I notice I’m doing that, I run into the bathroom and put these on any spots I have. Since they are thin and stick really well, I am able to leave them alone and stop touching my face." —MelsBells

All you need now are a few drops of essential oil!
Promising review: "I've been looking for a diffuser that actually works and have to say that I couldn't be happier with this aroma diffuser. With the time settings, I'm never worried about it running too long and the lights are a great bonus! It works like a charm and fills my living room with scents from my therapeutic essential oils. I get compliments every time I have guests." —Daryl O.

Promising review: "We have been using this board monthly for about three years. I use a variety of color markers, and all of it comes off at the end of the month with a little bit of windex or rubbing alcohol. Each day is big enough for four lines of small text, and the side of the board is perfect for reminders and shopping lists." —Liz

Promising review: "This blanket got me through the Houston ice storm when power was out for three days and temperatures were as low as 10 degrees. It's also comfortable when it’s 70 degrees outside! It's so versatile. I also love that it's oversized. This is the first blanket that’s ever fit right on my king size bed." —Elizabeth S

Promising review: "I purchased this upon my wife's urging as we both have some tight and sore spots which need a little attention. And since getting a massage is not possible these days, this massager has been perfect!
It comes in a nice case which holds everything neatly: massager, six massaging heads, and charger. There's a small pamphlet included which gives you an idea of which heads are best for which body parts, but I'd say do a little experimentation. This thing really does the job and my neck feels better than it has in months! Its battery life is exceptional and charging is actually pretty fast. If you're looking for a hand-held massager at a pretty good price, you can't go wrong with this one!" —Marc L Tavasci

The smell really does make me feel calm and relaxed, and the texture is not your usual sticky slime; it is very calming. I will definitely be back to purchase more in the future." —Yliannette Ortiz

Amazon reviewers noted that this little buddy worked for their various hair types.
Promising review: "This is a great little tool. My daughter and I both have VERY thick hair. Mine is especially difficult because it's curly. I have a combination of type 3A and 3B curly hair. My daughter always had a hard time getting to her scalp with shampoo and conditioner which caused some flaking and dandruff. Since she's been using this, that has stopped. It's made it much easier for both of us to get down to the root shaft. For people saying 'just use your fingernails,' this works better. I've had long and short nails and this still works better. It's easy to grip and clean. No complaints here." —J. Love

Promising review: "I was in the habit of rolling a cold can of soda on my forehead to help with tension headaches and sinus pain, but that was cumbersome and not always cold enough. This ice roller works so well to ease pain from sinuses and tension. It froze very quickly and I felt instant relief. The rolling motion even cleared my sinuses, and I could breathe better right away. I love this. Would highly recommend." —DT

Promising review: "I’ve tried other bath bombs in the past, but none of them put on a show quite like these from Lagunamoon! These fizzed and spun just like the bath bombs I’d watched on YouTube. Each bomb comes individually wrapped within the package, and they all managed to keep their own individual scents which impressed me. My skin was left feeling silky and smooth. This is definitely going to become one of my new ways to pamper myself." —Ann Von MorningStar

Promising review: "I have purchased at least six different teas from Harney and Sons, and I love them. I love the sachets, and the tea is beyond fresh and accompanied by lovely scents. The chamomile is delightful and fragrant. I've been drinking different brands of chamomile for years, and this is by far my favorite. Delicate and flowery. Very soothing and calming. It's delicious" —Nancy

I live next to a busy highway, and as soon as I put these up, it sounded like the highway was far in the distance. I track my sleep every night, and since I've had these curtains I've gone from a 60%-70% quality of sleep to 90%+ every single night. Highly recommend!" —Nichole

Promising review: "I absolutely hate how old bathrooms always have bathtubs right up against the walls without much of a ledge, per se. The scrunching of my neck when I’m laying in the bathtub ruins my attempt at relaxation. But, this bath pillow is amazing! My neck and head no longer hurt while I’m soaking, and my mid to upper back has good support, which helps prevent sliding in the tub. This has revolutionized my bath time! Highly recommend." —Amazon Customer

I'm at a point where I'm thinking about oat milk vanilla lattes when I'm going to bed. Really. I'm excited to wake up because it means I get my morning dose of this delicious dairy-free cold brew. And because each can is infused with nitrogen, every time you open a can, you get a fun little burst of cold smoke. It goes down smooth and keeps me amped long enough to finish each work day. Plus, it's organic and plant-based. Feel better about the coffee you're drinking. Because, if you're anything like me, there's a lot of it in your life.

This ~balanced~ kit comes with a yoga mat, a yoga block, a yoga strap, and a beginner's DVD.
Promising review: "I am not very limber and I have chronic spine issues, so having a block and strap was essential for me to do yoga. Before using this, I always ended up hurting myself or feeling bad about myself because I couldn't complete the stretches and would just give up. This kit made everything go so smoothly; I can adjust the block or the strap to help me stretch without hurting myself (or falling over). And I highly recommend the sitting techniques in the DVD as well as the meditation." —blightheavy
