Escape To The Beach


What can be better than falling asleep to the sounds of ocean waves while out on the deck overlooking a gorgeous sunset? I can't think of anything that compares. So when I want to recreate this experience (or at least the best part) I turn on my Sound Oasis Sound Conditioner S-550-04 on the ocean surf setting and allow myself to be transported back to the memory of my favorite summer days at the beach.


The Sound Oasis Sound Conditioner S-550-04 has other sounds that I like too such as white noise, rain, wind, stream and summer night. They are all quite soothing and can help block out irritating noises. I like that no matter what sound I choose, it creates a peaceful atmosphere that helps me to fall asleep easier, get higher quality sleep, and feel more alert and comfortable throughout the day!


Since you can't always escape to the beach, the Sound Oasis Sound Conditioner S-550-04 allows the beach to come to you. Sit back, relax and sleep.

Dreaming About A Good Night's Sleep


Do you dream when sleep or toss and turn all night long? Can you remember the last time you slept through the entire night? If you're like many adults, you may not be sleeping well and not getting the right amount of sleep. Today's fast paced society can make sleep seem like a luxury, not a need, but this is simply not true: you need quality sleep for good health. Sleep deprivation affects your entire body and mind.

I used to dream when I slept but then I developed a bad pattern of waking, tossing, turning, worrying and not being able to get back to sleep. I had heard about white noise and sound machines working as a sleep aid to block out unwanted sounds but I wondered if there was a machine on the market to help you get to sleep. I did a lot of research and quickly discovered that natural, outdoor scenic sounds helped many adults in my position get lulled back to sleep.

I bought the Sound-Oasis Sound Therapy System S-650. It has 12 amazingly therapeutic, soothing sounds - 6 authentic nature sounds and 6 therapy sounds. All of the recordings use state-of-the-art digital sound reproduction with extra long tracks. The Sound-Oasis Sound Therapy System S-650 creates a soothing atmosphere so users fall asleep easier, get higher quality sleep, enhance concentration, and feel more alert and comfortable throughout the day!

I now go to sleep each night with my machine turned on to the Ocean Surf or Thunderstorm setting. The sounds are wonderful and soothing. I find that after only a few minutes, I am immediately more relaxed and drowsy. I rarely wake up during the night anymore and if I do, I am able to fall back to sleep quicker. It's nice to be able to dream again!

Help For Family Traveling

The holidays are just around the corner and of course, you will be thinking about all the things you need to take to grandma’s house so the kids will have all their favorite toys and sleep aids along with everything you will need to drift off to sleep in a strange environment. It does not matter if you grew up in the home, your body is no longer use to the sounds around the house, and you will need some help in order to drift off to sleep and enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep.

The number one thing you should remember to bring along on the holidays is the Sound Oasis Travel Sound Conditioner. This innovative device will ensure you sleep quietly while enjoy the sound therapy. The features of the Sound Oasis Travel Sound Conditioner include 17 authentic built in sounds such as Ocean Surf, Thunderstorm, North Woods, Night Train, White Noise, Island Surf, Spring Rain, Songs Birds, Bonfire, Wind, Hidden Cove, Asian Garden, Rain Forest, Summer Night, Bamboo Chimes, Harbor Swell, and Cooling Fan. All will help ease you into slumber.

The Sound-Oasis Travel Sound Conditioner with jet lag reduction, which was developed by Dr. Jeffery Thompson and the Center for Neuroacoustic Research will help your body adjust and receive rest and peace.

If you have children, you know exactly how hard it is to get them down for a nap or to go to sleep at night in a different surrounding. You spend most of your time putting them back to bed instead of visiting with family. The best idea is to bring along items from home that help give them security. Before the holidays purchase the Sound Oasis Bear or the Sleep Sheep, then they will have this delightful sleep companion that they can take with them wherever they go and sleep peacefully.

For the traveling children you can choose from the Sound Oasis Sleep Bear or the Sleep Sheep. The Sound Oasis Bear is a must have while traveling. Your child will cuddle up with the bear and be soothed to sleep in no time even if you are on the road. The features include six clinic and customer tested baby sounds such as White Noise, the Womb, Ocean, Lullaby, heartbeat, and car ride.

The sleep sheep can be placed in the crib or just lying beside baby to help lull baby to sleep while giving them security with sounds like mother’s heartbeat, ocean surf, spring showers, and whale songs.

Either one of these will be great traveling companions for little ones and give parents a time to enjoy a few minutes of peace and quiet, which is always a blessing during the holidays.

Conquering Stress

Stress is one of those things that affect everyone at some point in their lives. It can be short-term stress such as missing the bus, planning your day, or even getting lost while driving. Long-term stress can be anything from a death in the family to divorce. Stress affects our bodies in a number of ways and can really make us sick. The major problems attributed to stress include trouble sleeping, constipation, diarrhea, headaches, irritability, lack of concentration, lack of energy, anger, over eating, under eating, sadness, more asthma attacks, arthritis flare ups, stomach cramping & bloating, tension, depression, anxiety, weight gain, weight loss, skin problems, high blood pressure, heart problems, irritable bowel syndrome, neck pain, back pain, diabetes, and loss of sexual desire.

Every person deals with stress in a different way while stress affects each person just as differently. Any change from moving to just rearranging furniture can cause stress for some individuals. The major events in life that cause stress include divorce, death of a spouse, jail time, death of a family member, personal injury, and illness.

There are ways you can conquer stress in your every day life. Research has proven that individuals that learn to relax, become physically active, communicate with friends and family, eat properly, and receive adequate sleep get over stressful situations faster and easier.

Learning to relax and getting enough sleep may be the hardest of all the remedies you need to conquer stress. On the other hand, with just a few adjustments in your busy life you will be able to relax and sleep better.

The easiest and fastest way to relax is to create a sleep environment in your bedroom or create a quiet and relaxing room for you to chill. When you decide which room would be best for your own special quiet time you will need to work on creating the perfect relaxation environment.

The first step is to take everything out of the room that is a distraction such as television, computers, etc… Now, close the blinds or put up drapes. The room should be dark and quiet. The next step is to purchase tabletop fountains and white noise machines. Tabletop fountains have been proven to aid in the relaxation process while white noise machines will absorb all sounds inside and outside your home so you can relax in peace and quiet.

You can find several cheap tabletop fountains that will be just what you need to relax and conquer stress. Some of the most popular tabletop fountains include the Alpine Calming Bamboo Fountain, Alpine Pouring Serenity Table Top Fountain, Alpine Broken Pot Italy Tabletop Fountain, Stone Water Fountain - Relaxing Tabletop Waterfall, and the Riverbed Fountain - Relaxing Tabletop Waterfall.

Each one of these tabletop fountains have unique features that will help you relax and the stress will float away. Along with the tabletop fountain, you should also find a white noise machine. It will not do you any good to try to relax by the sound of a fountain if you can still hear all the disruptive noises such as traffic, family in the other room, and so on and so forth. White noise machines will also help in relaxing your mind and body along with helping you achieve a restful night’s sleep. The most popular white noise machines include the Marpac Marsona DS-600A, Marpac SleepMate Sound Screen 580, International Marpac Marsona DSI-600A, Obus Forme - Sound Therapy Relaxation System, and the Sound Oasis - Sound Therapy System 650.

Do not let stress control your life, conquer stress with tabletop fountains and white noise machines.
