Bellabeat’s Leaf Wellness Pendant – Chic, Fun and Functional

Fitness trackers have been all the rage for years now, ever since Fitbit launched in 2007.  In fact you probably can’t believe they’ve been around that long.

But the way fitness trackers have evolved has opened up a whole new category that is better described as wellness trackers.   For those who are more concerned about using a wearable to better understand and connect to themselves, Smart Jewelry has arrived on the scene.

Unlike traditional fitness monitors that are really just designed to collect data on your movement and report it back to you in a sleek app so you know you “hit your steps” and “earned your badge”, wellness trackers like Leaf by Bellabeat aim for something deeper, more connected.

The first thing you’ll notice about Leaf is that it looks nothing like a fitness tracker.  It’s a chic, ethereal fob that can be worn as a pendant, on a wristband or clipped like jewelry to your clothing all the while quietly monitoring your state of being.  It’s contemporary looks will make you want to wear it regardless of it’s true purpose.

The second thing you’ll notice about Leaf is that is has an intended customer: women like you who are interested not just in fitness, but also in connected wellness as well.  Once you begin to explore what Leaf does, you’ll have a greater appreciation for why it may fit your lifestyle better than a fitness band.

In addition to monitoring the fitness tracker “usual suspects” of steps, physical activity and sleep quality the Leaf blends in a handful of features that are best described as assisting the wearer on their wellness journey.  Working wirelessly with the Bellabeat app on your smartphone, you’ll learn how to tame stress, track your menstrual cycle and monitor fertility and experience mindfulness as Leaf teaches you how to train your mind with guided meditation exercises.

Ultra Low Maintenance

Leaf is one of the new favorites on staff because its so low maintenance.  The internal battery lasts about 6 months and its super easy to replace when it wears out.  The internal memory stores your data for about 14 days, so if you don’t like being forced to sync or tether your device daily, then it’s perfect for you.

And while not waterproof, Leaf is water resistant so it is sweat and rain proof and can withstand “short immersion in water.”

On the style front, Bellabeat keeps coming out with more accessories to make it even more enjoyable to incorporate into your wardrobe.

But don’t take our word for it, just check the reports on Amazon. Leaf has only been around since the summer and already the rave reviews from actual customers have been piling up.  With an average rating of 4.3 out of 5 stars on Amazon, 88% of users rate it 4 stars or better.

To see if Leaf is a good choice for you most definitely lies in the reviews.  Users have been writing volumes about the Leaf, sharing pros and cons (trust me, mostly pros) and they will definitely help you decide if Leaf is a good fit.
