Wohlig einschlafen

Important: Do not, under any circumstances, listen to this app when driving or operating machinery or doing other things that require a certain level of concentration. This app can make you fall asleep even in such situations due to the special music and lyrics!

80 percent of all employees in Germany have problems falling asleep and staying asleep.

Most people resort to sleeping pills in the short or long term. The problem is that long-term use of sleeping pills can impair health or even increase the risk of death. According to various studies, long-term use does not even seem to bring a significant advantage. This is where our app can help - especially since it is also much cheaper than sleeping pills.

Commands and pressure are useless

It would be desirable if one could simply command the body to go to sleep. Unfortunately that doesn't work. Because a command or a strong desire contradicts the most important prerequisites for sleep: relax and let go. If your problems falling asleep are stressing you out or you are under pressure to fall asleep or are very worried about not falling asleep, you are unfortunately anything but relaxed and it is difficult to let go. This creates a self-sustaining cycle that is often difficult to break on your own.

Encourage relaxation and letting go

This is exactly where the "Sleep Well" app helps by changing your focus. Additionally, the background music is designed to trigger the brain to develop a strong need for relaxation and letting go. You can test this: If you are in a comfortable sitting or lying position with your eyes open and get involved with the music, you will notice how the desire to close your eyes and let yourself go gets bigger and bigger.

Switch off circling thoughts

Circular thoughts and other factors can also disrupt sleep. Commanding yourself to stop the thought carousel doesn't help here either. The emotional part of the brain doesn't respond to words, it responds to images. Therefore, we have selected various images and metaphors that can help you improve sleep problems.

You don't have to do anything but use the app

It is not important to pay close attention to the text or even every word of this imagination. Because that would contradict relaxation. All you have to do is try to listen and you can let your thoughts flow or not, pay attention to the music or the lyrics or just daydream. Everything is OK. There is nothing for you to do. Just travel through the images with your voice or not. The only thing to do is to listen to this imagination every night while falling asleep. It can sometimes take a few days to get used to falling asleep to music and speech at first. Don't expect too much the first time - the app will help you especially if you use it regularly.

In-ear sleep headphones improve functionality

The best way to hear them is with special in-ear sleep headphones, which are so small that they don't bother you when you lie on your side. You can find these under the search terms “sleeping headphones in ear” (from 9 euros) in the well-known stores. If your cell phone does not have a jack plug for headphones, you may need an adapter from "USB C" to "3.5 jack".

Important information on health and psyche

If serious problems falling asleep/staying asleep last longer and massively impair your quality of life, please speak to your doctor or a therapist before using the app, as organic or psychological problems must be ruled out.

If you suffer from psychological problems, you should also ask your psychologist beforehand whether there is anything against using such apps.
