Yes these are the spine fixers from Shark Tank, and yes they actually work. I like to wear the back brace while binge-painting and use the circle rollers every couple of hours to stretch out and get rid of back knots.
Chirp™ - Simple & Effective Back Pain Relief
This helps A LOT with just stretching back out and getting your spine aligned after sitting for a long time. Also good for training your body to know the posture you're supposed to have if it's not used to it.
Posture Corrector/Back Straightener
I'm super lazy when it comes to stretching, espcially my legs, but this band makes it so easy! You literally just put it on your legs and around your back and can just sit there watching a show or something
Stretch Band for Lazy Stretchers
So I've tried basically ever posture corrector scrappy thing there is, and this is the one that's helped me the most. The straps aren't stretchy, so it makes it extra hard to slouch (my shoulders are stubborn lol) aaaaand it's adjustable, which is a ...

Bounce and squish 10/10
Purple Hybrid Premier 4 Mattress
The most comfortable "chair" I've ever owned. Literally I've been dragging it around with me through multiple relocations and it's worth every bead of sweat! Feels like being hugged by a cloud ☁️
Giant Bean Bag (Multiple Sizes)
Game changer for anyone who has trouble with tossing/turning and falling asleep. Make sure to get a duvet (also on this list) because the blanket is really hard to wash since it's weighted.
Weighted Blanket for Adults (20 lbs, 60” x 80”)
The easiest way to keep your weighted blanket clean is to keep it in a washable duvet. I like this one because it's breathable and the fabric is more natural than a lot of the other plastic-based fabrics on the market.
60 x 80 inch Natural Bamboo Cooling Duvet
Beauty
Best tool for full body exfoliation I've ever had, and it's super easy to use. Kinda gross but walking around covered in dead skin cells is grosser.
Deep Exfoliating Mitt
Amazing tool for massaging and releasing tension in the face and neck. Feels great and snatches the jaw!
Stone Gua Sha Facial Tool
More stone facial massage tools! Cool to the touch and very relaxing!
Jade Roller and Gua Sha Set
If you're an extra hard brusher like me, these toothbrushes will SAVE your gums. They're so soft that you can brush basically as hard as you want, and the bristles are so fine that they get every part of your tooth. Hands down, best toothbrushes ever...
Nano Toothbrush
I've tried so many kinds of acrylic nails and these are the best out there. Not only are they super cute, they are also incredibly strong, have the best glue compound, and don't harm your nail beds. Oh and their cruelty free and vegan. 100/10
