Show HN: SleepSignal – App to calm down your nighttime racing thoughts

https://sleepsignal.app/

Simply close your eyes and imagine the scene you hear. Like if you hear "moonlight on a white flower", imagine that scenario until you hear the next one.Session duration is also not too long (7 minutes default, you may change the session duration in settings). You may also use it to easily break nightly doomscrolling habit.Personal experience: I almost always get sleepy eyes after doing it....

Also the volume gradually gets quieter towards the end of session (If you don't turn this option off at settings)

Actually I don't know spanish... (but maybe would try adding it later if userbase grows...)

Does the voice sound too disturbing? Actually another voice was used before, but later read that low-pitch voice is better for sleep related apps.

Try it... I almost always get heavy eyes feeling (kinda soft burning like) on the 10 minutes one. Also would love some feedback!

It's an app to get sleepy without meds. Simply close your eyes and imagine the micro-scenarios you hear. Like if you hear "moonlight on a white flower", imagine that scenario until you hear the next one. Session duration is also not too long (10 minutes default, you may change the session duration too).

It's like a digital melatonin pill - but without chemical side effects. Try it!

https://sleepsignal.app -An app to quickly wind down and get sleepy.

Using it is pretty simple → Simply close your eyes and imagine the micro-scenario until you hear the next one (such as: moonlight on a white flower).

Default session duration is only 7 minutes (try this out tonight!)

Recently worked on https://fastsleep.app - an app for nighttime overthinkers.

Instead of music or long podcasts, you are given something to imagine. Like if you hear "moonlight on a white flower", imagine that scenario until you hear the next one.

In short → Close your eyes, listen & imagine.

If you have sleep issue related to overthinking or racing mind, you may try fastsleep.app

Instead of music, long podcasts you are given something to imagine at a time interval.

Like if you hear "calm river", imagine that. If you hear "heavy rain over a tree", imagine that.

In short → Close your eyes, listen & imagine.

It's a progressive web app (you may install and use it both on android and ios) Simply visit the page and click Install. This may even be used without installation though... Even no sign-up is required to try this.

fastsleep.app does kinda similar thing... but instead of long podcasts, you are given something to imagine at a time interval.

Like if you hear "calm river", imagine that. If you hear "heavy rain over a tree", imagine that.

In short → Close your eyes, listen & imagine.
