Sleep Pod

Have you ever seen a sleep pod? I'd call it your own personal cocoon. It's like a recliner only it's more comfortable and wider holding comfortable coverings. Ear phones are included to hear mellow music as well as a timer which is set at 30 minute intervals constituting what is known as a "nap". Experts say 30 minutes is sufficient time to revitalize. After settling down and being fully relaxed, the Pod dims and darkens and a hood is then placed over your head to shut out any outside noise or light.

Large corporations are using these Pods because the executives believe it makes for happier and relaxed employees. Most people don't get a full 8 hours of sleep at night and aren't as productive as they could be. Those employers who have Sleep Pods available for their employees to use during lunch, find producion way up and accidents way down.

Not for the claustrophobic, however. Cross country or cross ocean airliner sure should consider turning regular seats into them, though.
