It doesn't take much to make your home workstation a little more body friendly. So before you head back to school this Fall, add a few ergonomic touches to your home office. I have professed my love for the Ikea Dave Laptop stand many times before, so if you must work in front of the tube (like yours truly), put it on a stand and not on your lap!

I must be still dreaming about "chestnuts roasting on an open fire" because when I saw this Piedmont iChair on Unplggd, I immediately pictured myself getting cozy in it, reading a good book and sipping on some hot cocoa. Little did I know that this luxurious leather armchair includes a surround system for your iPod. With stereo speakers built into the wings, forget your paperback—curl up with an audio book instead!

While I have chosen to decorate my house with more of an understated and modern theme I have a bizarre fascination with intricate furniture with a touch of geek.
While only a concept, this chair made from hundreds of blank cds designed by Belen Hermosa offers inspiration for those of us that have gigantic used CD collections lying around. I can't imagine it's especially comfortable, but it does have a special geek chic flare, right?

I adore reading about luxury gadgets I would never purchase - from $20,000 gold and diamond encrusted iPod shuffles to $800 Titanium iPod Nano Cases. What I don't understand are semi-luxury items (as in items you don't really need, but might want) that aren't even all that luxurious.
The Relaxation Sound Chair from Brookstone aims to be one of those highly-coveted gamer and music enthusiast items, yet its function is lacking.

We've seen our fair share of techie chairs - from the iMedia chair, which looks like something that belongs in a hospital building, to the Souchpod chair, which is a fancy beanbag chair with digital control panels for mp3 players, games consoles, your TV or DVD, a computer or stereo. What we haven't seen is a chair that can take you on a magical, spirit lifting trip at the sound of your voice. The Inada Robo Chair Massage Recliner with Voice-activated System may do just that.

Starting around 2 pm today I'll be sitting on my couch with a glass of wine (hey, it's Sunday!) watching the Oscars pre-show and checking out Pop and Fab's live Oscars coverage. While I wouldn't change my flat screen or couch for anything, I am geeking out over this new iMedia chair. It may look like something you'd see in a hospital bedroom, but boy do its features pack a punch.

The makers of the SlouchPod claim that this interactive chair represents the next generation in Beanbags. I was never a huge fan of beanbag chairs, but this one may be an exception as it is completely wired for gaming and entertainment purposes. The SlouchPod features a digital control panel for mp3 players, games consoles, your TV or DVD, a computer or stereo.

When furniture designer Herman Miller sent me one of their latest and greatest creations, the Embody Chair — which is both body and blogging friendly — I couldn't wait to see if it felt as good as it looked.
With the help of physicians and professionals in such fields like biomechanics, vision, physical therapy, and ergonomics, designers Jeff Weber and Bill Stumpf created the Embody Chair with the office worker in mind, therefore making sure it was jam-packed full of health-positive benefits.
What instantly struck me about this chair was the fact that its entire backing looks like a real spine, with vertebrates and all.

A new kind of spa, which offers a sleep therapy system of 20 to 40 minutes is targeting those of us that are easily tired by the "pressures of modern life." That phrase usually points to the internet-addicted, sit-at-your-desk- all-day masses, so I can only assume they want us to join them in their new concept in wellness.
Yelo is an upscale New York spa that offers body treatments designed to heal and alleviate specific conditions or ailments so that you can emerge balanced and energized.
