“As someone with severe sleep apnea, I’ve tried everything… so when I say this RENPHO x Headspace Eye Massager works wonders when I'm counting sheep, you should take my word for it. … this massager’s built-in speakers and light-blocking capabilities truly keep me in the moment and off my devices… and, combined with one of my favorite face masks, is the perfect way to settle my mind and body.”— Daniel Toy, Copy Chief, CNN Underscored
Shaping the Future of Lifestyle Tech
CNN Underscored’s editor-favorite lists celebrate a curated mix of products from leading brands across lifestyle, tech, personal care, and wellness—each recognized for distinct quality, innovation, and real-life impact.
This inclusion places RENPHO at the forefront of trusted, editor-approved brands. It signals a definitive industry shift toward lifestyle technology, where wellness is no longer reactive, but proactive, preventive, and tailored to individual lifestyles.
A World Without Rest
The feature comes at a critical time. About one-third of people have trouble either falling (34%) or staying (29%) asleep three or more times a week, and over 30 million Americans live with sleep apnea. In a fast-paced world, sleep is often one of the first things to be traded off. When juggling work, home life, and social expectations—while still carving out time for self-care—it can feel like an impossible balancing act.
The same study points to stress, anxiety, and mental health as leading contributors to poor sleep, which is why routines that help both the body and the mind unwind are becoming more relevant than ever.
