To keep healthy, we all need a good night’s sleep. Sleep actually happens in cycles of REM and NREM, the order normally being N1 → N2 → N3 → N2 → REM. There is a greater amount of deep sleep (stage N3) early in the night, while the proportion of REM sleep increases later in the night and just before natural awakening. Ideally, if we don’t have to get up at a certain time in the morning, we should wake up at the ideal time based on our sleep patterns. Now there is a watch that will monitor your sleep patterns and actually wake you up at the ideal time. Read more

“Since using the ShouldersBack Posture Support, I have noticed that not only has my posture improved, but people say that I seem to look like I walk with more confidence.”
| For as long as I can remember, everyone in my life has said that I slouch. I slouch while I sit, I slouch while I stand, and the question I always hear is, “Why do you stand like that?”.
