It may not look like much, but the Nightwave Sleep Assistant promises to relieve your insomnia in a rather clever way. Instead of mentally counting woolly animals over a fence, you synchronise your breathing with the rhythmic blue light projected from the small box. Soon, you find yourself sliding off into noddy-land, full of fluffy clouds and no trace of naughty Mr Nasty anywhere. Or something like that. $69.95.
This remarkable product guides you in a special pre-sleep relaxation session in the privacy of your own bedroom. NightWave projects a soft blue light into your darkened bedroom. The “luminance” of the light slowly rises and falls. All you have to do is lay still with your eyes open and synchronize your breathing with the blue light, as it’s movement becomes slower and slower. Within minutes, your body and mind become ready to drift into a restful sleep. After a short time, NightWave™ shuts off. It’s that simple. There’s no chemicals, no noise, and it won’t disturb others in the room.
As an insomniac, I’m very skeptical about this device… For one, it requires you to keep your eyes open… but maybe it’s one of those reverse-psychology things.
Wow, $70 for a glowing blue LED! What a bargain…
Alternative methods may be to put your computer into sleep mode and synchronise with it’s glowing light. Sure it’ll cost you a little more than this, but at least you can check your e-mails with it when you wake up.

My mother-in-law saw this product in a magazine and thought about me – thank goodness! My father-in-law also struggled with finding sleep due to some medical issues he had been experiencing. So, my mother-in-law purchased one for me and one for my father-in-law. For both of us, within a week of consistently using the product, we were at last able to fall asleep quickly.
The NightWave is easy to use. In fact, my daughter, age 5 at the time, had a very difficult time falling asleep as well. She slept in my room at the time I received the NightWave and after explaining how to follow the blue light with her breathing, I found her falling asleep much faster. It had such an impact that my mother-in-law purchased a NightWave for her as well.
While I can't say I'm completely off of all sleep medications, I can say that the NightWave has allowed me to drastically cut back. It has been an "amazing product" for me and my family! Thank you, NightWave!
