Sound+Sleep: Sleep Therapy System

Falling asleep and staying asleep is one of my hardest things to do. When I was younger I had no problems falling asleep and staying asleep, but now that I have little kids, I just always have a hard time sleeping!

Sure I am super tired at the end of the day (heck, even at the beginning, sigh!), but falling asleep is hard for me. I tend to take OTC sleeping pills some nights, just to get ahead and actually be able to fall asleep. Sleep medications can treat the symptoms of insomnia, but don’t cure the underlying cause and can often make the problem worse, so I really wanted to try something else. And then, I STILL wake up with any sound I hear and have a hard time staying asleep, UGH.

I have a fan in my room that I use, but, it makes me COLD and it is cold outside, I want to be WARM. So, I was happy to find out about Sound+Sleep, the sleep therapy system. I thought, this could really help me! No fan blowing in my hair at night making me cold. I had to try this out!

I received the Sound+Sleep therapy system to try out. This system has a lot going on! First off, I loved that it had so many settings for sounds. The sounds include:

Waterfall

Fireplace

Ocean

Meadow

Train

City

Rainfall

Brook

Meditation

White Noise

Ya, I told ya it had a lot of stuff going on!! Good stuff! My favorite “noise” is the Fireplace with a close call to the Rainfall! All of them are very nice and soothing, not loud or obnoxious at all.

Now what I thought was so neat about these “Soundstories” was that they are recorded as they happen. Meaning, that the sound engineering and design teams climb trees, sit up all night waiting for frogs to croak, and stand outside in thunder storms with high-quality sound equipment to capture the best quality sounds – the authentic sounds of nature! How neat is that?? So, all of their SoundStories employ recorded natural sounds except for the Meditation and White Noise themes.

The very first night I used this, it was sooo nice. I had it playing on the fireplace soundstory and immediately felt more relaxed. I could turn up or down the volume to my needs and then I just went into my bed and closed my eyes. Something about the crackling fireplace sounds just made me so sleepy. I had my kids laying next to me, and they loved the sounds too. I really feel more relaxed and at ease when I hear sometimes steady and nice sounding.

I have also found me reaching less for the sleeping aids and more for the knob of this wonderful sound machine. I feel more rested in the morning and don’t wake up as much as I use to, with just the fan. So, I do feel that this Sound+Sleep machine is definitely doing well for me.

This machine is NOT like the cheap wave or sound machines, this one really has quality “real” sounds for you to listen to and relax to. It is top notch and certainly makes me feel more relaxed in bed. And, if you push the “adaptive” button before you get into bed, the sleep system will listen to your environment and automatically adjust to the sound levels!! Love that!

You can also set the timer for 30, 60,90 or 120 minutes of sleep sound play. After that, it shuts off! All these features are just so important to have on a sleep sound machine.

    I love that this system “listens” to your environment and adjusts the sound accordingly…very cool. 🙂 Thank you.

  21. Barbara Evans says

    I would like the soothing sounds. Maybe I would listen to those instead of replaying the day in my head.

  23. Aisling says

    My favorite feature is the Easy Nighttime Operation that includes the ability to turn Adaptive Mode OFF and ON; four sleep timers with automatic, gradual off; and the ability to turn display lights off further make SOUND+SLEEP ideal for nighttime use.

  26. kimbuckjr says

    I really like the ‘adaptive’ feature. My hubby likes to watch TV while I’m trying to sleep, so with the background noise…it’s very hard for me to fall asleep. With the ‘adaptive’ feature it will be nice to adjust the volume without having to reach out of my warm blankets and adjust the volume knob. NICE!

    I like the Adaptive Sound Technology. It would be helpful when outdoor noises increase and intrude on sleep.

    I like the Rainfall SoundStory that is augmented by various thunderclaps, wind sounds and more.

    The ONLY sleep therapy system that “listens” to your environment and automatically adjusts sound levels.

  56. Steph B says

    I love the way it adapts the sound output to your surroundings, I live with roommates, and they alternate between very loud, and a dull roar, and I’m sure that this would be incredibly useful!

    Both parents and baby using SOUND+SLEEP machines can often break the circular sleep deprivation loop

    We have a very sleepy family – a 3 year old, 5 month old, and mommy/daddy are really needing some help!!

  74. Callie M. says

    I like that it automatically adjusts sound levels! With all the construction going on in my neighborhood this would be perfect!

  76. Jody Sisson says

    I Like and I quote Designed with help from customers, beta testers, and sleep and sleep disorder consultants, SOUND+SLEEP was masterfully engineered with unique features to help you relax and sleep more quickly.

    I like Sound+Sleep’s Adaptive Sound™ technology that automatically adapts audio playback based on the ambient and acoustical characteristics of the room.

  94. Kim says

    I like the Adaptive Mode that adds sounds and automatically adjusts volume to mask/neutralize sound – need that in my house! 🙂 Thanks for the chance!

  99. Heather C says

    I like that the sounds are slightly rzndomized. The issue I have with most white noise machines is that they have a recognizable pattern that is distracting.

  103. Deb Anderson says

    I like that it is customizable. You can add more variety sounds to a basic background sound.

  105. Kathy Boccard says

    I love that it has rain sounds and the adaptive feature! I could sleep forever listening to the rain!
