The busy and stressful lifestyle we lead can often have some pretty harmful consequences as far as our sleep is concerned. I don't know just how many of you have woken up in the middle of the night thinking of some deadline or simply couldn't go to sleep due to the fact that you were worried about something. However, all of the people who have experienced such a problem can now take advantage of a nifty little gadget meant to help them go to sleep, namely the Little Sleep Machine.

This digital sound player (because that's what the Little Sleep Machine really is) comes preloaded with three hours of soothing music - all embedded with natural delta wave frequencies, which are the frequencies naturally generated by the brain in the deepest stages of sleep. After a few minutes of listening, one's own brainwaves "lock" onto the delta waves and lead the user into a deep, restful sleep.

The device is extremely easy to use, since it's accompanied by its own set of comfortable headphones, meaning that you only have to put them in your ears, start the Little Sleep Machine and “brace yourself” for a good night's sleep. However, if you've got a serious stereo system included in your room (and you also want to share the Sleep Machine), you can also connect it to any digital music player speakers that have a standard mini jack (for headphone-free use).

The device uses a single AAA battery, and will occupy a fairly small amount of space in the user's home, as it measures just around 3.5 x 0.5 x 1.75 inches (8.89 cm x 1.27 cm x 4.45 cm). Indeed, it will be very difficult to spot.

The Little Sleep Machine can be yours for around 35 US dollars, which is a pretty low price to pay for a device that can give you back your precious sleep, something that a lot of people don't properly appreciate these days.
