Rethinking Aging Club Podcast

Author: Linda Sherman and Debbie Howard

We support the creation of products, education, advocacy and services that better the lives of people aged 50 plus, including older adults and their caregivers. We feature a different theme and live panel each week with founders and leaders of global AgeTech products and services. Topics include Smart Home, Marketing, Fitness, Caregiver Support, Robotics, Social Isolation and Ending Well. Our lively discussions, including comments and questions from our audience, are always full of valuable content. We are publishing our Rethinking Aging Club archives back to Nov 2021 by category until we catch up; with CES Highlights first, then Caregiver Friendly Products and Fitness and Wellness. It will take us about six months to get all of the approximately 100 remaining shows published by category in our podcast. However, you can listen to all of them on the Clubhouse replays. Our sister podcast is News for the Ages by Rethinking Aging Club

Longevity with Sensate and Elemind
Episode 6
Saturday, 21 March, 2026

We featured two founder CEO’s with outstanding, affordable longevity products. Both of these brilliant women and their teams provided ten minute lie-down experiences for attendees in the AgeTech Collaborative from AARP pavilion at CES 2026.Anna Gudmundson explained how Sensate uses low-frequency sound vibrations to tune the vagus nerve. She noted the results of a study conducted in Lisbon which demonstrated significant reductions in heart rate and stress-related brainwaves after using Sensate. Users easily carry their Sensate’s around, enjoying meditation and calming where they wish to have it. Reviews show that Sensate has been effective for panic attack sufferers and fosters long term stress management and resilience. Meredith Perry introduced the Elemind wearable headband that uses sound pulses to help users fall asleep faster and improve deep sleep. The product, which has a median sleep onset time of 10 minutes, was tested at CES 2026, where it successfully put people to sleep amidst the show's noise. Meredith has also been seen in noisy spots from a ferry to outside a Giants football game tailgate with Elemind’s “Sleep with Our CEO” campaign. Debbie Howard commented how light and comfortable Elemind is.Sleep Awareness Week 2026 was March 8-14.Recorded on March 12, 2026, this episode is part of our Longevity and CES Highlights Series.
