When your mind won't switch off, your body has a built-in way to slow down.

The vagus nerve — your body's natural calm switch.
Reachable inside your ear — at the concha, just inside.
Gold-plated contacts — send a faint, silent pulse there.

Then take them off, and let sleep come.

Gentle stimulation, guided breathing, and music.
03
Wear the Ring to read your body.
It reads your heart rate, HRV, and sleeps overnight.

See your trend.
Watch your metrics and patterns change over time.

A Faint Tingle.
A Gentle Warmth.

That’s Your Body, Restoring Its Ability to Rest.

REAL EXPERIENCES

What real users noticed in their own routines.

I felt a whole wave of calm wash over me. Zen — that's the only word for it. I was so wired before I put them on, and then it was like I'd been removed from the room. Just very calm.
Verified User · SLEEP 2026VERIFIED USER
Even in such an overstimulating environment, it let me focus on what was happening right here. After a long shift, this would help me actually get things done.
Verified User · Hospital residentVERIFIED USER
It helped me disconnect from the world outside — you're in your own cocoon, free to focus on yourself. Something completely new.
Verified User · First-time userVERIFIED USER
I have insomnia, so the sleep mode helped me the most. It really does relax you — better than paying for the pills.

What we’ve studied.

DreamPhones has been evaluated in an early exploratory study with 23 participants over 10 workdays, with no control group. That work can guide future research. It does not prove that DreamPhones treats insomnia or improves deep sleep.
