This Wearable Disk Is Here To Save Your Posture
Stop slouching, stand tall and develop some better habits along the way.
We all pretty much know the basics of good posture, but maintaining it is one of those things that's easier said than done. Proper posture doesn't just make us look better, either — according to Harvard Medical School's HEALTHbeat newsletter, it's also beneficial for your health.
Did you sit up a little taller after reading that? Good work. Now, can you keep your posture in check for the rest of the day? Unless you have your mom or a yoga instructor in tow, the answer is probably no. We, too, used to quickly revert to our slouchy, less-than-ideal posture when we weren't focusing on it, but then we discovered this genius gadget that reminds you to properly align yourself throughout the day. Ladies and gentlemen, meet Lumo Lift, the first wearable posture coach that vibrates when you slouch.
The Lumo Lift is a small, lightweight device that you wear just below your collarbone. It works with the Lumo Lift app on your smartphone to track your posture and activity levels. During the quick and easy setup, you assume your ideal posture and tap once so Lumo Lift can remember that setting. When the angle of your body deviates too far from what you calibrated to be your standard for good posture, the device will gently notify you so you can realign your body closer its ideal position.
