It's pricey ($140), but looks like a quality piece to put on a work desk. The slate is straight-up classy. Just give the pendulum a gentle nudge, and it will begin to make designs in the sand.
Large Slate Sand Pendulum
Magnetic goop changes shape as you place a magnet near the container. It's pretty freakin' cool. I could see younger kids liking this as well as adults.

Apothecary
A soothing tincture made with meyer lemon flower essence, water and alcohol. Instills a feeling of calm. It's an energy medicine, so it won't really interact with physical medications (but obviously use your own best judgement and talk to your doctor or whatever first)
