The optimal sleep kit includes a pair of our popular blue light blocking glasses that will help you fall asleep faster and wake up refreshed so you can maintain a state of optimal wellness and peak human performance everyday.
So what effects our sleep? Light, hormones and neurotransmitters. This kit addresses each of these synergistically.
How would it feel if you could naturally tap into your Zen whenever you needed it most?
Made with just the right blend of Eastern herbal tradition and modern research, the ingredients in Zen Mode provide a gentle mood boost with nutrients and herbs that support your natural stress-fighting system and help maintain balance between your mind and body. The result is a natural feeling of Zen.
Blue wavelengths of light trick your body in thinking it is still day time and so it works to keep you awake. When the sun goes down, we tend to keep being exposed to the blue spectrum because of all the artificial lightning.
Use: Wear from sunset until you in bed ready to sleep. We're not going to hide the fact that these look super dorky - but they're for indoor use only and will help you sleep better. Wear them while watching tv, using your laptop, ipad or iphone and you can save yourself an hour of trying to fall asleep. Read more extensive coverage of the effect of artificial light on sleep.
F.lux is a free app for your pc or mac that adjusts your display at night time so the colours are warmer. Usually your computer screen is very bright - but you probably shouldn't be exposed to that much light at night time. When the sun sets, Flux automatically transitions your screen to a softer light setting. Research has demonstrated that exposure to excessive light at night, including extensive use of laptops, smartphones and tablet, can extend the time needed to fall asleep by 1 hour. Also, there is a negative effect on the quality of your sleep, so you won't feel as rested in the morning.

The hormones cortisol and melatonin interact in a diurnal cycle with cortisol levels being highest in the morning/day and melatonin being highest in the evening/night. Cortisol gets you out of bed in the morning and melatonin tucks you into bed in the night. Leaving aside the entrained circadian rhythm, light is the primary signal your body responds to throughout this cycle. Blue light suppresses melatonin to keep you awake during the day.
