I've been a Pzizz user for probably at least a decade — when I first discovered it when I was running Citizen Space (one of the original coworking spaces in San Francisco). The new management saved this app from obsolescence and delivered a streamlined, beautiful interface — that is only bested by the quality of the binaural soundtrack that accompanies it. I swear by Pzizz to fall asleep almost everyday, and use it religiously when I take long plane flights. Do yourself a favor a try this out — and introduce it to your family and friends over the holidays! 🦃 Highly recommended.

Alternative tagline: "Chloroform as a service" ...I'm sorry. I'll see myself out.

@rrhoover When we told The Queen what we do she asked, "Yes, but, does it wake people up?!"

Thanks @chrismessina! Hey everybody! We're on a mission to bring great sleep to the world. Poor sleep has been declared a public health epidemic by the CDC. Over 70MM people in the US (and 2 billion people globally) suffer from insomnia. The vast majority of cases of people suffering from poor sleep are caused by a disease called, “too much thinking;” people lie awake at night unable to shut off their brains. So the key is if you can calm the mind, you can induce sleep. That’s what Pzizz does. Our patented system intelligently combines music, voiceover, and sound effects that are optimized for each part of your sleep cycle, to quickly quiet your mind, put you to sleep, keep you asleep, and wake you up feeling refreshed. All you have to do is listen to Pzizz. We have sleep researchers that work closely with our audio engineers to create beautiful dreamscapes that are backed by academic psycho-acoustics, and we pair these musical dreamscapes with voice scripts based on clinical sleep hypnosis, and then infuse them with personalization driven through our learning algorithms so you have a different audio sequence each night (which is important to keep Pzizz effective over time). It’s wild, and incredibly effective. Recently we launched big new updates to our iOS and Android apps which include our "Focus Module," music specially designed to help you get in the zone and get work done. I'll be here all day to answer questions, so fire away!

Pzizz is a fantastic app! I’m quite sure that there’s magic behind it :)

@vkedyk That reminds me of one of my favorite quotes, "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

I genuine-read this as Pizza. 👀

@arunsathiya Mistakes happen.

@arunsathiya I mean, pizza's also pretty good at putting me to sleep ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@arunsathiya Auto-correct is our #1 enemy at Pzizz :P

Breathing works for me. Breathe in through your nose for 6 seconds, and hold for 2 seconds. Breathe out for 6 seconds, hold for 2 seconds. Repeat for 5 minutes or so. It relaxes the body massively and helps me to switch off and fall asleep.
Rockwell Shah
@theashtube That can definitely be effective. There's a few variations on it as well. The most common I've found is 4-7-8 (breath in for four, hold for 7, breath out for 8).
Product Pearson
@rockwellshah Thanks, I'll try that. Holding my breath for 7 seconds though?! #ChallengeAccepted

@theashtube Wait till you try the Wim Hoff method... ;)
