Hibermate: See No People, Hear No People
Sleeping eye masks can only do so much. Because while they black out the real world from sight, they don’t block out the sounds that might cause you to toss and turn in bed.
If you really want to drown out the world, then you need to block out the sounds and the sights. Luckily, the Hibermate can help you out with both.
It’s an odd-looking contraption but it’s extremely effective, so much so that you wouldn’t mind looking like some alien because of the peace it brings.
The Hibermate eye mask features removable ear muffs, so you can use it just like any other traditional sleeping mask, if you prefer. The ear muffs in themselves are designed for comfort, as its made from soft, medical-grade silicon and lined with memory foam.
The Hibermate is currently up for funding on Kickstarter, where a minimum pledge of $40(USD) will get you one of your very own.

Foot-Powered Back Massager: Too Complicated for Comfort?
Want a massage? Then give yourself one by getting one of the many available self-massaging devices available on store shelves in most retailers.
Massagers are pretty common gadgets and they’re usually pretty easy to use. Most of them anyway, with the notable exception of the foot-powered back massager with hand tool that you see pictured below.
Even their model looks like she’s having a hard time with the device, but maybe that’s just me imagining what it would be like to try using this thing they call a massager.
It’ll probably be easier to use though, once you get the hang of it. The massager is described as allowing “the user to apply firm pressure for extended periods of time while completey relaxing the target muscles.” It also instructs users to adjust the push-button locking pin for back pain relief. Or you could just go see a good massage therapist.
The foot-powered back massager retails for about $50 (USD) over on Amazon.
