Small Business Holiday Wish List

Sound Oasis Travel Therapy System

At the end of the day, even small business owners need their rest. But that can be hard when you're forced to sleep in noisy hotels or other environments.

Drown out unwanted sounds with a white noise generator like the $90 Sound Oasis Travel Therapy System.

And that's only the beginning. In addition to a full-featured travel alarm clock, the Oasis boasts 18 digitally recorded sound-therapy programs to lull you to sleep. Along with standby soundscapes like waterfalls and crashing surf, there's even a special sound designed to reduce jet lag. A gradual-off volume feature slowly lowers the sound while you drift off to dreamland.

You can also record voice memos, and use one of them, as well as three other alarm sounds, to wake yourself up. The compact Sound Oasis is powered by 4 AA batteries or an included AC adapter.
