My brother suffers from anxiety attacks/bipolar. I sent him a Tivoli Model One radio, and he loves it and has mellowed him out he says. He had to leave all his vintage hi-fi equipment/turntables with his ex-wife and has missed it. The soothing woodgrain of the radio and the soothing music (he plugs his smart phone into it) helps him a lot. It's based on the older Kloss branded one.
Now I need to buy me another one.

Something I have found helps a lot are those "adult colouring books". No - not those kind! The ones with very detailed mandalas and such. I got a large set of coloured pencils, they stay sharp. Takes a lot of focus to stay in the lines and come up with nice patterns. See if they help. Something like this - https://www.amazon.com/Adult-Coloring-Book-Relieving-Mandalas/dp/1979601739

I got mine (the one I sent to my brother) at a yard sale for $50 new in package. Seller said lots of people were trying to get it for like $5. He had wanted $75 for it, as he knows they are $180 new. I offered $50 and he accepted. This was the pre-BT model, but I don't like Bluetooth much anyway. I just run an audio cable to it. Looking on ebay, it looks like lots of people must be upgrading to the BT one, as the older ones are going for $40-$50 used.
