DODOW
Sleeping problems can have serious effects on your health and productivity, but many people are wary of relying on medication. Dodow uses lights and a metronome to get you to sleep without chemicals. Simply breathe along with the blue light as it fades in and out, making use of breathing techniques to help you get some rest. Since the Dodow is about the same size as a drink coaster, you can easily take it with you on your next trip. No more lying awake watching the clock tick ever closer to your morning meeting. $59.

Expect to get around 4.5 hours of playback per charge, with the battery topped up each time you pop them back in the wireless charging case. Sound quality is much improved, and the lightweight design means you can wear them all day without discomfort. $249.
