NightWave Sleep Assistant | ||||
| ||||
| The NightWave Sleep Assistant silently guides you in a special pre-sleep relaxation session in the privacy of your own bedroom. It's like having your own personal sleep coach. NightWave projects a soft blue light into your darkened bedroom. The "luminance" of the light slowly rises and falls. Lie with eyes open and synchronize your breathing with the blue wave as its movement becomes slower and slower. After a short time, NightWave shuts off and you roll over and fall asleep. And unlike sound machines, the soft light does not disturb others. How NightWave Works NightWave calms the body and mind by activating the relaxation (parasympathetic) branch of the nervous system. It does this using the only non-drug method known, deep breathing. When you use this ancient relaxation technique, busy thoughts fade away. Your eye lids grow heavy and you fall asleep. Many people breathe in a shallow and ineffective way using their upper chest, upper rib cage, and shoulders. This causes low-level oxygen starvation and increased stress on the whole system. Proper breathing uses the diaphragm and abdomen to draw air into the lower parts of the lungs where the air capacity and blood supply are greatest. NightWave assists people to fall asleep AND cultivate proper breathing. Deep breathing reduces the levels of the stress hormone cortisol in the blood which makes way for the secretion of melatonin. Clinical research shows that melatonin and cortisol process an inverse relationship to one another. Dr. Andrew Weil MD says that proper breathing is the master key to vibrant health. Operates in 5 different modes Measures 2 1/2" x 3" x 1" Includes instruction manual and 9v battery. Battery tends to last about 600-650 sessions. "I don't know of any other product on the market that does this. NightWave is a welcome addition to our set of professional tools for helping people with their sleep. I recommend it." — Sherry Duwe, RN, MA Clinic Director, Psychotherapist Sleep and Mood Clinic Portland, Oregon | ||||
