As a wellness enthusiast, I know these kinds of gadgets can be expensive. And since it's the first day of Amazon's Prime Day sales event that lasts all week, I've found a few lingering deals on some of the best wellness tech that will help you find inner peace.

The best wellness gadgets on sale for Prime Day

Getting a good night's sleep is essential to overall wellness, and your sleep environment plays a big role. These Soundcore by Anker sleep earbuds have features like noise cancellation, ambient soundscapes, automatic sleep monitoring, and more for a better night's sleep.

Review: I tested Soundcore's new sleep headphones. Here's who should buy them

ZDNET editor Nina Raemont said these earbuds exceeded her expectations, especially with their battery life. "The earbuds managed to last four nights (and one afternoon nap) on one charge" she wrote in her review.

Doomscrolling and social media have taken over many of our lives. If you're like me and use your phone a little too much, the Brick helps you disconnect and lower your screen time so you can replace your scrolling with more beneficial activities like reading, walking, journal, partaking in a hobby, etc.

Also: I bricked my iPhone to prevent doomscrolling - and accidentally fixed my life

The Brick uses NFC technology (also found in contactless payments) to enable or disable app use. Tapping the brick, or "bricking," blocks the use of the apps of your choosing until the phone is tapped once again and "unbricked." By creating this physical separation and requiring a rescan to use your phone, you are less likely to pick up your phone when you're bored and fall into a one-hour scrolling session.

The Renpho Eye Massager is a must-have in my wellness toolbox: it uses compression, heat, and vibration to massage your eyes and temples, effectively giving your head and eyes a break. Especially if you're like me and stare at a screen all day, using this eye massager at the end of a workday is a game-changer.

Also: This eye massager doubles as my meditation tool

It also has soothing, relaxing music while massaging and heating your eyes (so soothing, I've fallen asleep while wearing it more than a few times). However, you can connect the mask via Bluetooth to play your own music or sounds (such as white noise, which can actually help relieve migraine symptoms).

For those looking to make meditating easier, the Sensate Relaxation Device is an excellent resource for beginners. Place it on your chest right near the vagus nerve, and it sends gentle, soothing vibrations through your sternum to help your body shift into relaxation mode.

There is an accompanying app that has soundscapes that are precisely synchronized with the device's vibrations, and you can track your sessions there as well.

While there is some overhype about red light therapy in the wellness world — claiming it is a cure-all for skin care and recovery — some studies do suggest positive improvements in acne, cognitive function, and chronic pain after a red light session.

This one from LifePro has 90 LEDS that combine 660nm red and 850nm near-infrared light therapy with three different light modes. The longest session you can do is up to 30 minutes, and there's a built-in timer for customized sessions as well.

I personally stare at screens all day — from my laptop to my phone to the TV — so even just getting light from a different spectrum other than blue is enough to convince me to try out this panel.

Part of your overall wellness is knowing your health, and this smart scale can give insights into crucial health metrics like metabolic age, bone mass, muscle mass, body water percentage, and more to give you a better idea of your health and how to improve it.

The scale pairs with an app where you can see all these metrics, and you can even connect and sync your data with popular fitness apps like Apple Health and Fitbit to track your progress even easier.

When is Amazon Prime Day?

This year, Amazon set its annual Prime Day event a little earlier, bumping it up into June instead of its usual July slot. The Prime Day sales event is officially from June 23-26, but you can expect sales prior to and even after the event.
