Hello friends, Happy Thanksgiving, and welcome (or welcome back) to the blog.

I hope you are doing well, enjoying the holiday, giving yourself some grace, taking care of your mind and body, and getting plenty of rest.

Friends, I’m so excited about this post and to collaborate with Dreamegg to share my review of their Sunrise 1 Sound Machine.

The Sunrise 1 Sound machine stands out from traditional white noise machines by combining gentle ambient lighting with soothing white noise to create a restful bedtime experience. In the morning, it mimics a natural sunrise with warm yellow light and calming music, easing you into the day with reduced anxiety and a refreshed, energized feeling.

It’s no secret (as I’ve shared here many times) that I’ve struggled with my sleep over the last decade (give or take).  I would struggle to fall asleep, stay asleep, and rest in general.  I’ve tried prescriptions, but they gave me nightmares, melatonin, which helped me fall asleep but not stay asleep, and now I’m at the point where I’m getting around 5 to 6 hours, but the wake-up is jarring.

As a diabetic, sleep is number one on my list, and it’s the first thing my doctor always asks.  Lack of sleep affects my A1C, elevating my overall numbers over time. This also affects my productivity, mood, and energy levels. I’m looking for a long-term plan where I can get a solid 7 hours, which is great for my overall health goals.

The Sunrise 1 Sound Machine is right on time because I have difficulty relaxing with the coming holidays, work, and adulting (in general).  Relaxing is the first step in my bedtime routine.  My routine now consists of yoga, journaling, or reading to the point of exhaustion, and even though my body feels tired, I still have the TV on.

However, the commercials are bright and intrusive when my room is dark, and even YouTube screenplays have the occasional commercial.  I didn’t want to have my TV on all night, so when I read all the features of the Sunrise 1 Sound Machine, I was excited.

Some key features are:

🌙 Customizable Sleep Routine: Personalize your morning and night routines with adjustable simulated sunlight and various nature sounds to create a comfortable sleep vibe. 2. Gentle Wake-Up Experience: Replace jarring alarms with a gradual wake-up

🌙 Gentle Wake-Up Experience: Replace jarring alarms with a gradual wake-up process featuring soothing sounds and a sunrise simulation.

🌙 Diverse Soothing Sounds: Access 29 sound options, including nature sounds (bird sound, stream, summer night, thunder, rain.etc.), meditation sounds, and various noise types (white, brown, pink), suitable for all ages.

🌙 Dimmable Night Light: Choose from 9 colors with adjustable brightness for a customizable nightlight experience.

🌙 Phone-Free Setup: It can be easily set up without WiFi or apps, making it convenient for travel and allowing you to unplug and unwind.

After using the Sunrise 1 Sound Machine for a few nights, my favorites (by far) are the “diverse soothing sounds” and the dimmable night light with the colors (you can change the color to change the mood). But the best is not having (yet another) app on my phone.  I can leave my phone across the room and let the Sound Machine do all the work. I’m still getting used to the wake-up, but I’m confident that will change over time.

I also enjoy that the Sunrise 1 Sound Machine is compact so that you can travel with it. It fits right by my bedside, and the only thing I need to adjust (after my trial) is how long the alarm goes off. The first night I used this was excellent, and I fell asleep to the sound of a rain storm (with thunder). The second night, I changed that to the brown noise.

Also…

The sunrise wake-up simulates a gradual sunrise, featuring warm yellow light and soothing music that mimics the tranquility of a natural sunrise. This gentle approach reduces morning anxiety and sets a positive tone for the day.

This sound machine promotes relaxation and better sleep by allowing you to create a sleep environment with soft ambient light and 29 soothing sound options, including nature, meditation, and various noise types.

You can support mental wellness by fostering a calming bedtime and a stress-free wake-up. SUNRISE 1 enhances mental wellness, leaving you focused and ready to tackle the day.

The first morning I used the Sound machine, I saw the light before hearing my wake-up alarm. The alarm wasn’t jarring; it was soothing and would work well using a sleep mask. It’s small enough to fit right by my bedside, and since the sound level is adjustable, it’s a better overall experience. Check out the video below because the sound quality of this machine is excellent.
