With lavender flowers and essential oil, it’s the perfect way to calm your mind, body, and soul for a night of restful sleep.

Pair the diffuser with this starter kit of relaxing essential oils, and once you incorporate it in your routine, we’re confident it’s a practice you’ll keep.

Therapedic TruCool Memory Foam Pillow
Sleep on the wrong pillow and you’re pretty much guaranteed to toss and turn all night long.

A memory foam will give you the comfort you need during the night, and this TruCool pillow is also designed to allow air to flow through the pillow, keeping your head cool throughout the night so you never have to toss and turn to get comfortable. Back and stomach sleepers can try this version.

They are designed to wick sweat away from your body during the night, keeping you dry and cool while you sleep. The lightweight, breathable fabric will feel great against your skin, too, keeping you cozy and comfortable all night long.
