Elvie Trainer

It's challenging to exercise a muscle you can't see.
You don't know if you're doing the exercise correctly or if your efforts are making a difference. The Elvie Trainer is a Kegel device that uses an app, so you can track your progress. The app provides real-time feedback for tracking, so you can perfect your technique; when the pelvic muscles are contracting, a "gem" inside the device lifts, helping you visualize what you're doing via the app.
The small, pebble-shaped pod is placed in the vagina, like a tampon. It's comfortable to use and is programmed with fun five-minute workouts designed to tone the muscles of the pelvic floor. There are four levels of exercise, with six exercises tailored for each level. With use, the Elvie reduces leaks, increases blood flow to boost arousal, and strengthens orgasms.
The Elvie Trainer and app are compatible with iPhones 4S and newer and Android phones or tablets 4.3 and newer, which support Bluetooth Low Energy. You can also use the Elvie Trainer with iPad 3 and newer, including iPad Air and Mini.

Empty Nest Kit
$ 29.99
Remember what it was like before kids?
Many of us are navigating an empty nest, because our youngest child has just gone off to college or grad school--or just moved out again after landing that first job. There are lots of circumstances that can lead you to this now-unfamiliar spot: It’s just you and your partner.
We’ve put together this kit to give you a boost in rediscovering that partnership. A dozen Romantic Vows for Affectionate Lovers can open the door to playfulness and reconnection. They work like “love coupons,” and you can decide how to use them with your partner to surprise each other. A Jolie vibrator is among our most discreet, while still delivering the stimulation midlife women can need. At less than four inches long and an inch in diameter, the Jolie can be tucked into a pocket, a bag, or a convenient drawer. And Pink Silicone lubricant is among our most popular; it’s medical-grade and moisturizing, as well as being long-lasting. We include a 2.8-oz. bottle.
