Top 10 Gift Ideas for 2005

Every year ideas for gifts have us scratching our heads, especially for those who suffer from sleep disorders or other chronic illnesses. Here are a few suggestion I hope you'll find useful.

1. Bath and Body Products

Get ideas and compare prices on dozens of gift baskets of bath products. What could be nicer than a bubble bath in water scented with a sweet oil, or a soothing lotion to rub on the skin?

2. Pyjamas and Robes

For some of the men on your list, how about a pair of pyjamas or a soft robe?

3. Nightwear

Ladies, too, will appreciate nightgowns, pyjamas and robes.

4. Quilts

While we're thinking about nightwear, a warm, cuddly quilt would make a great gift.

5. Movies

Since the advent of DVD players, movies have become a popular gift. Check out these ideas.

6. Slippers - Ladies

If you're like me, if your feet are warm, your much more comfortable. I always ask for a pair of slippers when gift time rolls around.

7. Slippers - Men

Men appreciate warm, soft slippers as well.

8. Herbal Teas

Many herbal teas are soothing and relaxing. They make excellent gifts.

9. Magazines

The gift thbat keeps on giving for a year - or even more. There's a magazine for every taste.

10. Nature Music

Instrumental music played against a background of nature sounds - gently falling rain, the singing of birds, waves lapping the shore. Peaceful and relazing.
