I could have used this last night. Terrible sleep, probably because of the 6pm coffee.
Super interesting to see you expand to a physical product after running Calm, a website and app, for several years. Are you planning to make other physical products, @tewy?
@rrhoover yes! We love the idea of creating more physical products to compliment the Calm app, and taking the brand offline more generally. It's actually been part of the vision for Calm from day 1. We have some big plans!
@tewy@rrhoover Ryan have you tried Calm's Sleep Stories? You'll be asleep in minutes once you start listening to one of them :) My fav is Trans-Siberian Railroad and there's even one narrated by Stephen Fry! http://calm.com/sleep
@rrhoover@tewy with the upcoming surge in baby boomers getting older and needing at home care and often anxiety relief, exploring ways to make the home (or nursing home, assisted living apartment, etc) more calm will be so impactful and appreciated. Love the app, keep up the awesome work!
We designed Sleep Mist to be the perfect pair to Sleep Stories, our sleep inducing bedtime tales for adults. Think aromatherapy meets audiotherapy. While both are powerful on their own, their combined value is greater than the sum of their parts, especially when looking to improve sleep and overcome insomnia.
Mad props to @tewy and the Calm team for really building for the customer. I thought Sleep Stories was brilliant, but it keeps going. I come back to Calm whenever I have a hard time sleeping.
Tewy!!! This is seriously awesome. Why weren't these at the office opening?! :) In all seriousness though, it's been amazing to see you guys continue to expand. Can't wait to see what's next!
Thanks for the feedback everyone. 60 Million prescriptions are written every year for sleep medication in the US alone so insomnia is a huge issue. We've been experimenting over the last year to find a more natural way to calm racing minds and help people drift off to sleep. The scent and sound combination is very immersive and we love the idea of transporting people to different parts of the world every evening. This is the Sleep Story we created that pairs with the Sleep Mist. Stephen Fry (a national treasure in the UK) narrates a journey through the lavender fields and sleepy villages of Provence. Sweet dreams!

First of all, I love the site. That by itself made me more calm. Good job on that.
Second of all, I'm a huge fan of essential oils. My mom used to bring them home with her after one of her trips to Morocco. What I do is I mix it with water and spray it around the house and over my clothes. For some reason the smell and vibrance of it really soothes me.
For those in doubt, these little gems really work.
Your solution seems more sophisticated tough.I also like your 6 part commitment. It just makes it more authentic and organic. That, together with the app is just great effort on your end. I mean, who doesn't love a good bedtime story. Don't have to be 10 to enjoy them.
Great initiative guys. I should probably buy and test these out asap. Good luck with the launch!
I had been debating whether or not to try hemp oil for the better part of two years, as a way to help combat anxiety, insomnia due to anxiety, and PMS symptoms. I purchased it and after a week of use, my anxiety has decreased, my sleeping habits have improved, and had basically no PMS symptoms this cycle. I also have surprisingly felt more energy and greater mental clarity. I don’t know if that’s necessarily a result of the hemp or just the fact that my anxiety has decreased so I’m not bogged down overthinking everything. I’ve also been utilizing Yooforic oil, nonetheless, i will try this as well.
