![]() ![]() I never realized how toxic and negative it was to wake up to a jolting alarm clock. Using a product like this has helped me wake up on the right side of the bed every morning. Waking up doesn’t have to be as hard as we make it. This has made a significant difference in my morning moods. Instead of waking up to the blaring iPhone alarm sound, I wake up from this gradual "sunrise" light brightening up my room and the peaceful sound of waves/birds chirping/etc. If I wake up unexpectedly in the middle of the night, this light is especially helpful in letting me know if it's almost time to wake up (or if there's no light, that it's the middle of the night and okay to go back to sleep). Every morning, the light on the Restore syncs with the sunrise and gradually brightens, which is especially great since I like to sleep with blackout curtains. I’ve never used (and didn't know) what a "sunrise alarm clock" was prior to purchasing this product. ![]() Of all features, the one that has pleasantly surprised me most is the sunrise alarm feature. The variety of white noises (and other sounds) this device has is extremely helpful in this regard. I’ve used white noise machines/apps before but they would either shut off in the middle of the night or the sound would loop and actually keep me awake. The white noise content has been really helpful in reducing external noise and keeping me asleep. Restore has enabled me to establish a consistent nightly routine, made better by the inclusive content library that I can control from my phone.Īdditionally, I'm a very light sleeper which means that external noises from my apartment complex regularly wake me up and disturb my sleep cycle. What stands out to me most about this product is the expansive content library - guided meditations, white/relaxing noises, bedtime stories, etc - making it much more than an alarm clock. My research led me to Hatch, through which I discovered their newest product offering geared towards adults - Restore. I've tried various meditation and sleep apps but none have had a lasting effect on my ability to fall and stay asleep. This problem has compounded over the years. My inability to get a good night's rest began in college with the all-night study sessions, social events, and general stress of being a student. I am an active male in my mid 20s and I’ve struggled with sleep for a few years primarily due to work stress. ![]()
