The tools that help me sleep

01

WHOOP

For the data loveraffiliate link

The wearable that showed me the truth about my sleep. I've worn it every night since January 2023: over 1,350 nights, and I'm in the top 4% of WHOOP members for sleep and the top 3% for recovery.

It runs on a membership, so check the plans on WHOOP's site.

02

Brick

For the late-night scrolleraffiliate link

A little device that locks the apps on my phone. I bricked my phone every night from 11pm to 8am, and it helped my anxiety more than anything else I tried.

03

Truvaga

For the traveleraffiliate link

My doctor suggested Truvaga after I had a brain map done. It helps me with my anxiety, especially when I'm traveling.

Questions people ask

What do you get someone who is always tired?

Something that helps them build a better bedtime: a sleep tracker like WHOOP so they can see their nights, a Brick so the late-night scroll stops, or a sleep mask or white noise machine.

Is WHOOP a good gift?

If they like numbers, yes! I've worn mine every night since January 2023. It runs on a membership, so check the plans on WHOOP's site before you buy.

Do you earn from these links?

Yes. These are my affiliate links (ShopMy, WHOOP, Brick, Truvaga), and as an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. It never costs you extra.
