Sensate
What's to love: A small device that may help relieve stress from planning for home repairs, the forthcoming holidays or just day to day life.
What does it do: According to the company, Sensate creates infrasonic sound waves to send resonant frequencies through the body. When placed on the chest it targets the nervous system, especially the vagus nerve, to aid in relaxation and improve resilience to stress. The device is used with the free Sensate app on a smartphone. The user can select a variety of timed sessions that coordinate relaxing music with the vibrations. Sensate sells for $249.
