10 Sleep Products Help you Sleep Better! (In Progress)

In my clinic, my patients with insomnia often ask me to recommend sleep products to them to facilitate the treatment.

I want to emphasize that we don’t want to rely on products to help us sleep better, we need to work on how to sleep with our own bodies and biological drive.

However, sometimes, some sleep products may be helpful to reduce sleep anxiety a little bit.

I list some products and tools on this page because I use them myself, or I have interviewed the founders of them and like what they do for the sleep field. I’ve done the research and trial and error so you don’t have to! That being said, I encourage you to consider only the products that fit your needs based on your own sleep needs.

Circadian Glasses:

Ayo: Glasses provide easy circadian light therapy. Now I am wearing it every morning after I get up, before I head to work. It is very easy to wear when I cook, eat, and do other things in the house. It helps boost energy, sleep better at night, and adjust our circadian rhythm. I haven’t tried it after international trips, but the CEO of Ayo told me this glasses are helpful to cope with jetlag. Here is the purchase link. All my listeners and clients can use this special coupon code to get a 10% off, if you want to give it a try: “deepintosleep“. Or you can find it on Amazon, but my coupon code does not work on Amazon.


Magnetic Conditioner for Deep/Dream Sleep & Stress Relief:

It is a machine you wear for 30-60 minutes each day. I did not try it personally, but I interviewed the founder of this product, Dr. Cohen. He has been behind several great sleep products in the past. His team offered all my listeners a $100 off coupon: YISHANSLEEP, and the purchase link is here.


Sound Machine for Baby’s Sleep

Dr. Yishan interviewed a neuroscientist Dr. Benasich. She and her team invented this sound machine to help improve baby’s sleep quality and brain development. She explains that sleep is not just a period of rest for the body, but a highly active time for brain development, involving the formation and strengthening of various neural networks. Instead of relying solely on white noise, Dr. Benasich suggests using a variety of soundtracks to create an optimal auditory environment for babies. Dr. Benasich explains that providing diverse auditory stimuli can enhance a baby's acoustic processing and facilitate better neural network formation. This variety of sounds helps babies build acoustic maps, which are essential for language development and differentiation of sounds. You can read more of her suggestions to parents in this blog article: How Can White Noise Impact Baby Brain Development?


CPAP machine& masks:

  • ResMed CPAP machine (that is what I have and what I bought for my parents)



Earphones you can wear during sleep:

  • QuietOn sleep earbuds (listen to my interview with their founder)

    • This is a must-have for me when I travel with my family. When a family member snores, I rely on this to help me sleep.

Pillows:

  • Pillow Cube, a pillow designed for side sleepers like myself (listen to my interview with the CEO Jay). I use this pillow everyday now.

Bed Sheets:

  • Cozy Earth

    • I received 2 sets from this company over the past 2 years, and I love them. They feel smooth when touching the skin, and keeps my body cool and dry at night. One of my personal favorites so far.
