When sleep won't come.
Getting to sleep, staying asleep, or getting back to sleep at 3 a.m. Sleep aids sedate the body. Dr. Spiegel guides the mind into the state where sleep comes on its own.
90% felt more rested after one session. No drugs, no side effects.
When poor sleep becomes a way of life.
The harder you try to sleep, the less it comes. Hypnosis is the opposite of trying: the body is allowed to do what it already knows how to do.
Three problems, three approaches.
He finds out how you respond
A short test. It tells him how your mind takes suggestion, and how to work with you.
He meets the night you're having
Getting ready for sleep, falling asleep, getting back to sleep. You tell him which one it is tonight. If stress or pain is keeping you up, he works on that.
He checks in the morning
A short check-in tells you what changed, and what he wants to try next. The practice builds night by night.
Not a pill. Not meditation. Not an hour a week.
Medication
Works while you take it; side effects and dependence are the trade-off. Reveri has neither, and nothing in it asks you to change what your doctor prescribes.
Meditation
Trains you to observe what's there. Hypnosis is focused attention used to change how you relate to it. Many members do both.
Therapy
An hour a week, when you can get one. This is Dr. Spiegel's method in ten minutes, whenever the moment comes, including 3 a.m.

Straight answers about hypnosis and sleep.
Can I hypnotize myself to sleep?
That is essentially what a sleep session is: a guided way into the state your body needs to let sleep happen. Dr. Spiegel's AI does the guiding; you do the drifting.
Does it help with insomnia?
Hypnosis has improved sleep outcomes in the majority of studies that measured it, and it addresses the anxiety-about-sleep that makes insomnia stick. It is not a treatment for a medical sleep disorder; talk to your doctor about those.
What if I wake up at 3 a.m.?
There is a session for exactly that: getting back to sleep. Most members who use it fall back asleep within minutes.
Is it safe to use every night?
Yes. There is nothing to build a tolerance to and no side effects. Many members use it nightly.
