Humans are intelligent creatures, and we evolved our brains in a way that only a small percentage of us can sleep well. It’s as if we all turn 12. BamEvery day, each of us is destined to never feel rested again, due to inner clutter or external interference, or both. The bags under our eyes droop, caffeine becomes a drug of choice, anxiety mounts, and we can’t stay up late. We feel more and more anxious about staying up late. It’s a painful vicious cycle, and I’m almost certain the only solution is to add three free hours of nap time each day, bringing our total to 27 hours a day.

But unfortunately, that is not possible. And yet, we humans are obsessed with trying to get sleep, just as we are with diet and exercise. The scientific literature is abundant. Health trends like micronaps, melatonin augmentation, and CBD dosing have been tried, but mostly abandoned. So there is a burgeoning gadget market built around the industrial sleep complex. In our experience, some of them are worth trying. Those gadgets are below, but of course, none are guaranteed to work for everyone. As humans we may share insomnia, but the way each of us does it is very idiosyncratic. Try one, or a combination of several, along with calming breathing and warm milk. Whatever works for you.
