These four newly launched ventures are sure to become staples of the Bay Area.
REBOOT
A company providing one of the most innovative and streamlined exercise experiences in the industry, FORME Life, is opening new showrooms in Santa Clara, San Francisco and San Diego, redefining what it means to train at home. When switched on, the device’s 43-inch screen perfectly reflects your form beside your virtual trainer with a lifelike quality only 4K can convey, and when turned off, the screen functions seamlessly as a mirror. With features including voice-controlled commands, progress tracking and the ability to communicate with a digital trainer, this product is truly revolutionizing the personal training landscape. 865 Market St., San Francisco, formelife.com

With various room, suite and villa options from which to choose, there’s an accommodation to fit the needs of any visitor, and with private retreats and a vineyard on-site, this is an opportunity that cannot be passed up. 400 Silverado Trail, Calistoga, fourseasons.com

REMEDY
In late 2020, the Santa Clara County Behavioral Health Services Department launched Virtual You: Navigating Wellness Online, an online program that offers mental health services and support to young people by increasing awareness, engaging with youth and increasing skills. The program is “a place where you can escape the pressures of the real world, relax, have fun and just be you.” Virtual You provides free programming for 12- to 25-year-olds: workshops on topics like coping with anxiety and stress; learning mindfulness; art classes; employment and education resources; and much more. sccgov.org
