When you're navigating a new place on your own, feeling secure helps you relax and actually enjoy the experience, which is why safety is a nonnegotiable part of my travel essentials.

Petal is a bra insert that uses bio-impedance sensors and electrical measurements to monitor blood flow near the heart. Because wearers position the insert right next to the heart, the device can capture more accurate readings than your typical smartwatch, Petal says. The device comes in one size and fits snug against each breast. It's made with biocompatible materials, including a soft European fabric and a polyurethane-coated interior.
