Insomnia keeping you up? The Reverie Sleep Coach may help

Reverie - "Opposites Attract" - 30 Seconds

Living better starts with sleeping better, and no one understands that better than Reverie, a company looking to modernize the age-old practice of sleeping. The company has been making zero-gravity adjustable bases for quite some time (as well as bases that actually provide you with a massage), and also offers a slew of customizable mattresses and cooling pillows. But the latest innovation may just be the most exciting yet. It’s called the Reverie Sleep Coach, and it’s touted by its creators as a “personalized sleep consultation platform.”

While other sleep coaches attempt to utilize a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to guiding folks to sleep, Reverie instead offers one-on-one guidance, which is apparently an industry first. So how does it work? First off, you’ll have to take a Sleep Quiz, otherwise known as a “proprietary questionnaire” that allows Reverie’s coaches to evaluate your current sleep quality and immediately address any outstanding issues you may have.

Then, the coaches will share the results of this survey via email, alongside tips and tricks that ought to help you up your game (when it comes to sleeping). As you continue to snooze on your Reverie mattress, your personal sleep coach will continue delivering tips to your email inbox on a weekly basis, and you’ll be given access to a downloadable tool that lets you track your sleep stats.

If you really need some help, you can upgrade the service to include consults and one-on-one conversations with a dedicated coach who will actually develop a personalized training plan for your benefit. And rest assured, all coaches must undergo a purported “rigorous training program” developed alongside Reverie’s national sleep advisory board council of doctors, scientists, and psychologists. All coaches promise to identify your individual habits and problems — whether it’s snoring issues, stress, or just your partner’s annoying sleeping ticks — in order to help you get a better night’s sleep.

“So many people aren’t getting the sleep they want or need. At the same time, there is a significant amount of new research being done on sleep—all pointing to its importance to our health and well-being,” says Martin Rawls-Meehan, CEO and co-founder of Reverie.

“Science shows that focusing on sleep will lead to significant health gains — often more beneficial than those of good nutrition and consistent exercise. With Reverie Sleep Coach, our objective is to bring the practice of healthy sleep habits to the forefront of the wellness conversation, making practical, science-backed sleep advice accessible to everyone.”

Reverie Sleep Coach Basic is $49 and provides 90 days of individualized tips delivered via email. The personalized package starts at $129 for two sessions and $299 for five sessions. Both packages include a customized sleep plan.

Google’s latest Pixel software update can help you get a good night’s sleep

One of the major advantages of Google making phones like the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL is that it can deliver new features to those phones. The company has proven that by releasing a slew of those features to Pixel devices, most of which are now available to owners of any Pixel 2 or later.

First, Google is improving the Adaptive Battery feature on the Pixel 2 and later. Adaptive Battery already learns the user's favorite apps, and can prioritize how much battery it gives certain apps depending on that information. Now, however, Google is able to better predict how long a battery will last depending on that information -- and as a result, can reduce the power to certain apps for longer.

This bed for astronauts helps you sleep more deeply through the science of sound
intellibed sleep genius smart base plays sound improve bed lifestyle

Sleep is one of the most essential parts of your health. In fact, a lack of sleep is similar to severe intoxication in its effects on your motor and cognitive abilities. Intellibed recently introduced the Sleep Genius Smart Base, designed with research used by NASA to help astronauts fall asleep in space. As it turns out, the brain can be quite active even during the depths of sleep, and the most active system is the part of the brain responsible for sound and hearing.

The Sleep Genius Smart Base is intended to complete the Intellibed sleep environment in conjunction with the Gel Matrix mattress. While the Gel Matrix mattress is designed to work with the Sleep Genius Smart Base, other mattresses can be used. The Smart Base uses a system Intellibed calls “Treat versus track.” In other words, rather than tracking sleep quality, the bed is designed to treat them instead.

Bisu Body Coach can tell if you’re at risk of a gout attack by analyzing urine
bisu body coach analyzes your urine better health

Smart health technology has come a long way from its conception, and at CES 2020, we saw the introduction of smart devices that monitored everything from the way you walk to your blood pressure. One of the most interesting devices debuted was the Bisu Body Coach, a device that can tell you everything from your nutrition levels to whether you’re about to suffer an attack of gout. And it does all of this with a simple urine test.

The Bisu contains a urine sampling stick inside an elongated, rectangular housing. All you have to do is pop the end and extend the stick. A few drops of urine are all the Bisu needs to analyze your current health. Once you have provided Bisu a sample, the device can give personalized diet advice. It tracks electrolytes, hydration, ketones, pH, and uric acid levels. From these levels, the Bisu can make recommendations on foods you should add to your diet to compensate for nutritional deficiencies. The companion app lets you access this information at any time and provides explanations behind its reasoning.
