New year’s resolutions may vary. Some may want to workout more or eat less. Some may want to develop a new hobby or try a new sport. But I’m guessing that nearly all of us could agree on one resolution we’d love to achieve: more and better SLEEP.
Whether you are a new parent longing for more zzzz’s, a working mom spending long hours balancing all of life’s to-dos, or hanging on for dear life on the wild ride of perimenopause, sleep is often something that suffers. According to the National Institute of Health, an estimated 50-70 million Americans suffer from regular sleep disruptions!
And the real kicker is that not getting enough quality sleep can derail all of our other best efforts to eat well, lose weight, reduce stress and generally handle all that life throws at us.
It’s not just adults either. I’ve seen my own kids struggle to get enough quality sleep too and know the impact it has on their health, mood and performance.
So this last year, I’ve found myself working to prioritize quality sleep for my family, and in the process I’ve found a few sleep aids that may just help you or someone you love get the shut eye we all need.
Today, I want to tell you about Ozlo Sleepbuds.
Designed by former Bose sound engineers, these in-ear sleep earbuds are a small, comfortable, versatile way to block out sleep-preventing noises and help you nod off to la-la land a little bit easier.
Whether you have a snoring partner or a restless pet in your bed, a noisy nextdoor neighbor or have to sleep nontraditional hours, the Ozlo Sleepbuds are the perfect solutions to help you remove distractions and calm your mind so you can sleep.
The real test of the Ozlo Sleepbuds’ effectiveness was when I sent them to my college-aged son to try in his ever-noisy freshman dorm. After trying three other brands of sleep earbuds, Ozlo Sleepbuds were the only ones that were truly comfortable to sleep in, actually blocked out the 2AM hallway partiers and had a built-in alarm so he wouldn’t ever miss a morning class.
5 Reasons to Love Ozlo Sleepbuds
Comfortable to sleep in (really!)
Traditional earbuds hang out of the ear and get knocked out with tossing and turning. Overear headphones are bulky and prevent you from sleeping on your side. Ozlo Sleepbuds are small and squishable allowing them to fit perfectly and comfortably in your ear – and stay there! – whether you are a side, back or stomach sleeper. While other sleepbuds often ended up falling out sometime during the night, Ozlo’s stayed in every time.
Perfect for nighttime audiobook-lovers
If you prefer to listen to music, podcasts or audiobooks as part of your bedtime ritual, you’ll love that Ozlo Sleepbuds let you stream your favorite pre-bed stories but also employs biometric sensors to detect when you’ve fallen asleep, pause your audio and start your selected noise-masking option so you’ll never lose your place in the plot.
Effectively blocks sleep-disrupting noises
Whether it’s a barking dog, snoring partner, late night sirens or early morning leaf blowers, Ozlo’s Sleep Technology offers 10 different researched-backed, noise-blocking options to counter what is keeping you awake. Whether you like nature sounds, white noise options or ethereal tones, you’re likely to find an option that helps you fall – and stay – asleep.
Nightly sleep metrics
In addition to the biometric sensors on the Sleepbuds, an upgrade in the coming months will allow the case itself to monitor the temperature, light and noise levels in the room, creating a personalized sleep report that you can view on the Ozlo Sleep app.
Built-in alarm to never miss a meeting
One of the other amazing features of the Ozlo Sleepbuds is the built-in alarm system. This ensures that even if you are trying to block out other noises, you won’t miss your alarm to get to class or a meeting. Plus, if you’re sleeping with others in the bed or just in the room, since the alarm is only in your ears, it prevents others from getting woken up just because you need to. #goodsleepforall
Whether you’re trying to move more, eat better, stress less or heck, just make it through a Thursday, consider how much easier all those would be if you had a good night’s sleep. Ozlo Sleepbuds may be able to help.
