Getting dressed should feel like the start of your day, not the first obstacle. The VITILITY Dressing Stick with Foam Grip & Shoehorn is designed for people who want an easier, more independent routine with less bending, reaching, and awkward twisting. Whether you’re dealing with stiffness in the morning, temporary mobility changes, or simply prefer tools that make daily tasks smoother, this dressing stick helps you stay in control of the little moments that set the tone for everything else. At its core, this is a simple, reliable dressing aid: a long-handled dressing stick with a versatile hook on one end and a smooth, integrated shoehorn on the other. What makes it feel especially user-friendly is the thick, cushioned foam grip. It sits softly in your hand and gives you a steadier, more comfortable hold—particularly helpful if your hands tire easily, if you have a weaker grip, or if you just want more confidence when guiding clothing into place. Instead of pinching fabric with your fingers and straining your shoulders, you can use calm, controlled movements while staying in a more relaxed posture. The hook end is made for everyday clothing tasks that often require extra flexibility. Think of guiding a jacket or cardigan up and over your shoulders without reaching behind your back. Or pulling a shirt hem down smoothly without bending forward. Or catching a waistband or pant loop to help bring trousers up your legs. Many people also use a dressing stick to manage socks: hooking the edge to help slide them off with less effort, especially when bending down is uncomfortable. The goal isn’t to “do anything for you” in a complicated way—it’s to extend your reach so you can dress and undress at your own pace, with fewer uncomfortable angles. Then there’s the shoehorn end, which turns this into an even more practical daily tool. If you’ve ever tried to step into shoes while balancing, struggling with a tight heel, or worrying about crushing the back of the shoe, a shoehorn can make the process feel smoother and more predictable. With the VITILITY dressing stick, you don’t need to switch tools or hunt for a separate shoehorn. It’s right there on the opposite end, ready when you are. This can be especially helpful during morning routines when you’re trying to keep your momentum going—get dressed, get your shoes on, and move on with your day. Because the VITILITY Dressing Stick with Foam Grip & Shoehorn is intended for real homes and real schedules, it’s made to be intuitive. There’s no assembly and no complicated parts to manage. You simply pick it up, choose the end you need, and use small, steady motions. Many people find it easiest to start while seated—on the bed, a sturdy chair, or a bench—so they can stay balanced and take their time. Over a few uses, you’ll naturally develop your own techniques, like which angle works best to guide a sleeve, or how to catch fabric without tugging too hard. A common question buyers have is whether a dressing stick is only for putting clothes on. This one is meant for both dressing and undressing. The hook can help pull clothing into place, but it can also help you remove items with more control. For example, you can catch the edge of a sock to ease it off, or hook a garment gently to slide it down your arm without overreaching. It’s also useful for managing layers—like repositioning a robe, pulling a sweater down evenly, or helping a jacket sit comfortably on your shoulders. Another question is who this tool is “for.” The honest answer: anyone who wants less strain and more independence. Some people choose a dressing stick because they’re recovering and want to follow movement guidelines that limit bending or twisting. Others keep it around because they live with ongoing mobility challenges or reduced flexibility. And some people simply like having smart self-care tools that make daily life easier. This is not a clinical-feeling gadget; it’s a practical lifestyle aid that supports privacy, comfort, and dignity in day-to-day routines. The foam handle plays a bigger role than you might expect. When your grip feels secure and comfortable, you tend to move more steadily and with less frustration. That can make the whole process calmer—especially during mornings when you’re trying to get ready and you don’t want to start the day already fatigued. The thickened foam grip also helps the dressing stick feel more natural in your hand, which is important for tasks like guiding a sleeve or positioning a shoehorn where control matters. Using the shoehorn side effectively is also simpler than many people think. Place your shoe on a stable surface, position the shoehorn at the heel opening to create a smooth “ramp,” and slide your foot in with gentle pressure. If the shoe tends to move, steady it against the floor with your other foot, or keep it braced in place before you step down. Small, controlled motions usually work better than rushing. Over time, it becomes a quick, dependable step—especially helpful if you regularly wear shoes that fit snugly or have stiffer heel counters. Maintenance is minimal, which matters for something you’ll likely use every day. If it picks up lint or fibers from clothing, a quick wipe is usually enough. For general cleaning, use a soft damp cloth with mild soap if needed, then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking, since you want to keep the foam grip feeling comfortable and the tool ready for regular use. Many users like to store it somewhere it’s always within easy reach: by the bed, near the closet, in the bathroom, or next to a favorite chair. If you’re wondering whether you need special instructions before using it, the best approach is to start simple. Try it first with loose-fitting clothing so you can learn the feel of the hook and how much pressure you need. Focus on steady movements and a comfortable posture. The dressing stick is designed to work with your routine, not force you into a new one. Quick FAQ-style answers: Yes, you can use the VITILITY dressing stick for both putting on and taking off clothes. Yes, it can be helpful for limited flexibility or temporary mobility changes because it reduces the need to bend and overreach. And no, you don’t need to assemble it—just pick it up and use it. With its foam grip for comfort and its integrated shoehorn for convenience, the VITILITY Dressing Stick with Foam Grip & Shoehorn is a small daily upgrade that can make a noticeable difference in how smooth, calm, and independent getting dressed feels.

interesting analysis of what 'being creative' really means
This easy-to-read absorbing book is based on lengthy interviews with 91 creative individuals ranging from Nobel prize winners to artists to CEOs. Csikszentmihalyi starts by debunking the myth of 'the lone genius having a brilliant idea as if by magic' and defines three necessary ingredients for creativity ('with a capital "C"') - domain, field, and individual. Creativity must take place within a recognised domain (such as physics, painting and so forth); be recognised by experts in that domain (the field, although this may not happen in the individual's lifetime, eg, Van Gogh); and of course come from an individual, although he also adds the painstaking work that precedes and insight, the reality that all creativity builds on what has gone before, and the social elements of the creative process. The book also offers supporting evidence from the lives of the 91 interviewed, which also provides interesting insights into their lives. In many ways, this book is a biography of the creative individual. Also contains a chapter with quite practical guidance on how to live more creatively. Prescient advice for a book published in 1996 given the increasing profile creativity is getting in business and public life. HIghly recommended, one of the most interesting learning experiences i have had in a long while!

Very enlightening for those who truly appreciate creativity more than cleverness!
Format: Paperback
I love how the author almost redefines creativity .and sheds new light (for me, at least!)on what what real-for-true creativity is and how it benefits individuals and society. It's far more than simply brightening up a room with new wallpaper and curtains -- it describes how genuine creativity requires a thorough working knowledge of the fundamentals of any given field before one can truly create something new or better, and it reveals how those of us who aren't capable of creating something ourselves can yet be part of the process by demonstrating appreciation and support for those who create, whether as sponsors, patrons, or even just ardent fans!

instructive but limited
The testimonies of creative people that give this book its flesh and blood provide fascinating examples of creative people at work. That said, if a journalist had written the book, it would be more readable, and I don't think any less of an intellectual contribution. Moreover, the definition of creativity is elitist and stunts the topic (as observed by other reviewers): "Creativity is any act, idea, or product that changes an existing domain, or that transforms an existing domain into a new one. And the definition of a creative person is: someone whose thoughts or actions change a domain, or establish a new domain. It is important to remember, however, that a domain cannot be changed without the explicit or implicit consent of a field responsible for it." Given the people interviewed, much more needs to be said about the function of social institutions in promoting creativity. Many of the accomplishments lauded in this book would never have happened without grant-making agencies (e.g., NSF, NIH, HHMI) or non-profit employers like research universities and hospitals. To offer just one obvious example of the difference made by one's institutional context, the author had advanced students to help him do his research for this book. The elitism of the definition is even clearer in the role that marketplace plays as a judge of creativity. None of us buys books from amazon.com because some official group validated amazon.com as a good idea. We didn't wait for computer programers to affirm and certify it. Amazon.com is not deemed successful because it impressed its peers. It is successful because millions of us purchase goods through it. Similarly, auto-executives did not make the minivan a successful idea, millions of shoppers did. (Obviously I don't think the marketplace fits into the author's definition of creativity. If 300 million American consumers comprise a domain with 300 million judges, then the word no longer has any useful meaning.) The definition also precludes that countless ephemeral acts of creativity that take place daily. I think instantly of two women I have worked with who were great at holidays. Their clever costumes or decorations brightened my day, adding a little element of surprise and delight. Their acts of creativity don't meet the definitions of this book. The way that creativity is defined in this book is simply a filtering mechanism by which the author selected the people he would interview. It is not a definition of creativity. It is only a description of a subsection of creativity, the kind where institutions provide paychecks to highly practiced individuals to work hard at what they love. I also found little new to take away and apply to my own social existence inside the organization where I work. Perhaps I can summarize my dissatisfaction by observing that the subtitle sets out an agenda for the psychology of creativity, but the definitional filter is intrinsically social. This disconnection sets the book up to fail. So, count this as a negative review, yes, but I did enjoy reading the testimonies of the people interviewed, and the author adds some value in the generalizations he draws. Still, much, much more could have been said.

Wise and Complete
Format: Paperback
I've read a lot of books, too many, on creativity, and this is by far the best, the most complete, the most interesting. The idea that creativity comes out of immersion in a domain or field seems absolutely right and the idea missed by so many other writers. I'm a writer and a painter and I've learned that I'm not going to be any better than the work I've come to know and love, that I have to live in that work. If you want to be a better string player, play with a better ensemble. In many ways a creative person is someone who is in a conversation with what has come before, with work that excites her, teaches her, challenges her. This book makes that plain. But he has other insights as well, especially about the creative personality, the interesting dichotomies. Just read the book.

Creativity which has the power to change the world
A few caveats to those who are generally interested in creativity studies: Csikszentmihalyi's analysis and discussion of creativity does not directly relate to those who are personally creative. People who enjoy engaging in creative activities are not demoted, in his terms, but are simply not a part of the study. It is unfortunate that his language makes it seem this way; he distinguishes between the two by saying that Creativity has the power to shape a domain or the world, while creativity applies to those who enjoy coming up with new recipes, who are engaged in research that may not change a domain, but may "tweak" it, etc. What he is trying to discover are the underlying principles and traits of creativity in those whose work has made a significant change. Think Albert Einstein, Eleanor Roosevelt, Mark Strand: people who are either widely known for their influence, or who have been influential within their area or domain. This book provides an interesting view into the minds and work habits of Creative individuals, and concludes by offering general advice to those who wish to make their own lives and work more creative. It is a useful book, but one which requires a great deal of supplemental reading, in order to truly engage in creativity studies.
