1. KASHWÉRE SLIPPERS

Having toasty toes is just one reason to wear slippers—protecting your feet is another. Chenilla Classic Slippers are cozy, lightweight, and unisex and have supportive soles that help prevent stubbing and preserve the fat pads on feet that can thin with age, leading to discomfort. ($98, kashwere.com)

2. GATO DATES

Naturally sweet Medjool dates combined with creamy nut butter and enrobed in 70% dark chocolate are a decadent treat. I love their bonbon-like texture and that they deliver helpful fiber and have no added sugar. The Gato Goodies Pro bundle includes all three flavors. ($75, gatodates.com)

3. PURA VIDA FIDGET RINGS

If you've ever found comfort in twirling your hair or tapping your foot when you're stressed or anxious, that shows the power of fidgeting, which studies indicate can help ease those feelings and boost focus. Fidget jewelry is a fashionable way to redirect restless energy, and Pura Vida has cute styles with builtin design details to play with—balls to toggle, rings to spin. I like that people don't know I'm self-soothing when I wear these. (From $6, puravidabracelets.com)

4. BOSE QUIETCOMFORT ULTRA HEADPHONES
