The Dodow is, as you already guessed from the title, a device which is designed to help you fall asleep faster and improve the quality of your rest throughout the night. This product has been created and developed specifically to help people who suffer from insomnia and other sleeping disorders, thus it has a very wide range of applicability for anyone interested in having a better sleep cycle.
The research that went into developing the Dodow was based on well studied techniques of meditation, yoga, cognitive therapy and behavioural therapy, and the device has been extensively tested in order to confirm its claims. With a compact size, it is intended to be kept next to your bed, preferably on your bedside table. You can place it there right before you decide to get to bed and let it work. Subtlety is its main selling point, as the Dodow will not disturb the person sitting next to you, it is merely a subtle helper for your personal sleep.
You do not have to suffer from insomnia or other major sleeping disorders in order to enjoy the full benefits of the Dodow. Most people who purchase this product are not insomniacs, but want the piece of mind that if a restless night might come along, they will have something to help them overcome it and achieve a good rest.
As with any meditation or behavioral therapy technique, the Dodow needs some time for getting used to before it can actually offer you its best results. It works by projecting a small, faint light on the ceiling, which slowly grows and shrinks in a pattern and rhythm the human brain finds calming. Using it more and more will lead to better and better results, so we recommend using it at least a full week, nightly, just to get your brain familiar with it.
The Dodow is extremely easy to use. Simply place it on the floor or on your bedside desk, and press the button to turn it on. You can select from different cycles ranging from 8 to 20 minutes, and then just sit back and watch the calming lights generated on your ceiling. The purpose of the lighting pattern is to calm your breathing down to the perfect rhythm needed in order to fall asleep in a calm and peaceful way.
Each order comes with the Dodow device, and some batteries needed for it to run. You also receive a user manual detailing each setting and how the product works. At just 49.99 GBP, this product is a perfect companion for people who have difficulties sleeping. It is small, easy to use, and as many people who purchased it have stated – it actually works.
