Smart Phone Sleep Aid: 2breathe

You can fall asleep in three easy steps, according to the 2breathe website.

Step One: Breathe

Step Two: Follow

Step Three: Fall asleep




The 2breathe sensor is worn over clothes and around the abdomen. Bluetooth technology syncs the sensor to a smart phone app. The app monitors breathing, then uses tones and verbal cues to progressively coach the wearer to breath deeper and more rhythmically. Deep, rhythmic breathing is said to reduce neural sympathetic activity allowing the individual to fall asleep within minutes.

Once the app detects that the person is asleep, it will turn off prompts and log data aimed at helping the person use this method in an increasingly successful way.

The system runs a little less than $200 after shipping. To order or watch a demo visit: http://2breathe.com/
