Millions of people suffer from chronic tiredness and other health problems caused by insomnia and other sleep disorders. Those of us who struggle with such conditions simply cannot enjoy the quality of life that many others take for granted.
People simply don't perform at their best when they're short on sleep and our always-on culture doesn't do us any favours, sometimes leaving us, well ..short changed. It's time we questioned the myth that sleeping less and "doing more" is likely to make you more successful in life because when you look at the hard facts, the reality is very different for most people. The truth is that good sleep (and switching off in general) are not only vitally important, but make you far more productive than any amount of coffee ever could!
According to published medical research in this field, people who suffer from chronic lack of sleep are much more likely to suffer from depression, anxiety and other types of mental disorders. Some researchers have also linked chronic lack of sleep to other serious and in some cases physically debilitating illnesses. The negative and corrosive longer-term impacts of such conditions on health and wellbeing in the wider population may not always be widely reported, but they should not be underestimated.
More generally, lack of sleep also has a significant and detrimental impact on people's cognitive abilities, making it more difficult for us to concentrate, exercise good judgment and perform normally routine tasks, which in turn can lead to poor performance, accidents and other issues.
Even for those of us who rarely suffer from periods of insomnia or disturbed sleep, feeling "tired and emotional" or just plain "tired-out" after a bad nights sleep is an unwelcome (and often counter-productive) start to the day.
Einstein once said that the definition of insanity is to do the same things over and over and expect a different result..
Many of us seek temporary or longer term relief from prescribed medicines or "alternative medications". These can leave you feeling even more tired when you wake up and sometimes cause other unpleasant side-effects. Some are also highly addictive and can potentially have a damaging impact on longer term health. Not the healthiest of bedtime routines perhaps.
Whilst some people with serious sleep problems may well benefit from using such remedies given the appropriate medical guidance, we don't think this this is a sustainable, long-term solution for many people. Future advances in medicine might one day safely deliver widespread, long-lasting and effective relief from sleepless nights and chronic tiredness, without any negatives. Until then, we believe there's a smarter way..
Let's break out of this cycle and do something different.
We're developing innovative, technology based solutions that will help people to safely and naturally relax so that they can improve their sleep/life balance.
We've spent the last two years developing our first product based on established scientific research into some of the physical sensations and stimuli that enable people to naturally reach and maintain a state of deep relaxation. We're fascinated by how technology can be adapted to provide innovative solutions that deliver such potentially life changing benefits for everyday use in a normal home environment.
Using a combination of technical know-how and engineering skills, we're combining advanced software technologies, electronics and electro-mechanical devices into a brand new category of smart consumer wellness appliances.
Our aim? Helping people to relax and sleep better so they can ultimately feel and perform at their best!
We're very passionate about the potential of what we're working on and we can't wait to share the news with people as we further develop and test our new products. If you're curious to find out more about as our story unfolds, we want you to be the first to know!
