The Problem: Lack of Sleep.

(l)Sleep deprivation reduces attention, alertness, vigilance,and decision-making ability by 50%;
communication skills by 30%;
and memory by 20%.
Sleep deprivation also contributes to depression, irritability,
mood disorders and the ability to reason.
Sleep deprivation costs the United States economy as muchas 100 Billion, yearly, due to lost productivity, medical andlegal costs and damage to property and environment.
l) Ingham Regional Medical Center - Paying the Price for Sleeplessness

Current “Solutions”
Popular pharmaceutical based sleeping aids which comewith risk of addiction and a myriad of other negative
physiological and psychological side effects.
Exterior sound generators which often disturb the patient’s
bed partner or roommate, creating additional stress;
reducing the patient’s use of the device.
Headphones and ear buds become uncomfortable anddisruptive as sleeper changes position throughout the night.
Disruptions easily awaken a sleeper in REM sleep - an active
and critical sleep stage for the brain.

A Better Solution: The Sound Pillow Sleep System
100% Natural sleeping aid includes:
Sound Pillow: Comfortable hypoallergenic pillow with
two stereo speakers buried deep within a plush pillow.
Speakers are hidden and do not disrupt sleeper thus
allowing sleeper to experience all sleep stages.
MP4 Player pre-loaded with binaural-sleep sustaining
music, nature sounds and affirmations.

In-Clinic Test Methodology

Sound Pillow
MP4 Player Pre-Loaded with
14 1/2 hours of Binaural Music, Nature Soundsand Affirmations
Participants slept with the system for 2-Weeks then answeredindividual questionnaires.

Why the Sound Pillow Sleep System Works
The Sound Pillow is comfortable and does not disrupt users’ sleep.
Thus allowing sleeper to experience all sleep cycles.
Sleep system’s music is slow with no loud punctuations ofsound or fast tempos - does not disrupt sleeper.
The binaural music slows cardiovascular and respiratory
systems, as well as brain activity. Allowing for deep relaxation.
Sound Pillow’s sound quality is very good. Thus the nature sounds& music reproduced are natural and pleasing to the sleeper.
Sound Pillow’s stereo speakers are positioned near the sleeper’s
head, allowing only the sleeper to hear and experience thesounds. Does not disrupt bed partner or roommate.

Conclusion
The Sound Pillow Sleep System provides the user with a
comfortable and non-disruptive night’s sleep. Thus
allowing the sleeper to experience all sleep cycles
required for meaningful-rejuvenating sleep. Which inturn showed to enhance test clients’ moods, attitudes
and overall outlook of success.
In virtually all cases, test clients became more pleasant tobe around, having a positive effect on others around them.
