Hypnopedia

👋 Hi Product Hunt! I'm Dr. Andrew Sokol, MD, PhD Belarusian State Medical University, Brain geek and CEO of Hypnopedia. The events of recent months have given us little reasons for optimism. Our internality and self-confidence underwent invisible and therefore very dangerous stressful attacks which overwhelmed the nervous system. While there is a lot of talk about the benefits of physical activity, mental health is rarely discussed. However it is no less important and requires regular discipline to maintain it. That is why we have developed a universal algorithm for increasing self-confidence and self-awareness. It plays short inspirational phrases (affirmations) while the user is asleep without waking him. Why was the dream chosen? We spend almost a third of our lives in a dream. This time is considered passive for the brain to rest and to process the experience received on the eve. It is when the brain decides what to put in a long-term memory and what to forget. However, during these eight hours, the brain is able to receive clues through specific short phrases for further memory consolidation. Based on the last 3-5 years of USA ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc... ) and French scientific ( https://www.nature.com/articles/... ) somnology research, we have developed the application for tracking sleep phases and to use this time for repeating simple and motivating affirmations or consolidate other “daytime experience” in the so-called intermediate memory. In this case, the process of memory reactivation occurs and the brain better assimilates familiar information. Hypnopedia syncs with your Apple Watch and works during the beginning, middle, and end of your sleep cycle through 3 features: 1. Sleep Sounds – Gentle ASMR-like sounds to induce sleep --------------------------------- Fall asleep faster listening to relaxing sleep sounds. Listen to trickling water, fire burning, thunder, rain, animal noises & more. Create playlists with your favorite sounds and save them for later. 2. Affirmations – Learn positive messages whilst you sleep --------------------------------- Fill your mind with positive thoughts listening to 15+ pre-recorded affirmations for health, happiness, success, mindfulness, relationships & more. Affirmations play during peak times in your sleep when your brain is most receptive. 3. Smart Alarm – Wake only when your body is ready --------------------------------- The Smart Alarm tracks your sleeping patterns through your Apple Watch and wakes you up at the most convenient time. No more groggy mornings, Hypnopedia ensures you only wake up feeling refreshed every day. HOW IT WORKS: --------------------------------- It is proven that the more often your brain receives positive stimuli, the better the information is preserved. Hypnopedia tracks patterns in your sleep cycle through your Apple Watch and uses this data to read affirmations or trigger an alarm at times when your brain is most receptive. The moment for reading affirmations is chosen by a specially tuned algorithm that identifies the specific phase of sleep when the brain is most susceptible to information received from external sources.

Amazing! Can't wait to try!

Used to be a little skeptical about affirmations but this sounds truly exciting! Can I try it?

Congratulations! Your concept looks very interesting. Do you plan to make the app accessible for android devices (incl. watch)?

The idea is really interesting. Is it acceptable for people who sleep sensitively? The app will not awake them?

Soooo weird :)

Congratulations @dr_andrew_sokol and the team on the launch. I have been using the app for a few weeks and I can see some positive results already. Initially, I was using it without the Apple Watch and it felt something is missing in the described experience. After switching the use with Apple Watch, the results were seen. Interesting concept and highly recommended for feeling positive and motivated throughout the day.
