If sleep isn’t as simple as just shutting your eyes, biohacking technology can help
Biofeedback, a process that involves conscious awareness and control of the body, lays the groundwork for biohacking your sleep. Integrate powerful practices and new technology to gather data, track your habits, and improve sleep quality.
Biofeedback is used to increase awareness and control of the body to improve mental and physical health — both of which are important for quality sleep.1 This biohacking practice involves consciously controlling automatic bodily functions to improve health.2 Learning to control bodily functions can help enhance sleep duration and quality.3
The first step in using biofeedback to improve sleep to gather information, which you can do with the latest wearable devices available on the market today. Headsets, patches, wrist-based fitness trackers, and rings measure and record your heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, and breathing patterns.4 Muscle tension, skin conductance, and brain waves can also be measured as a part of biofeedback therapy; however, testing for these is much more complicated and may require going into a professional lab.
Utilizing data is a crucial part of biohacking — after all, data is at the heart of science! If you’re looking to improve your sleep, bedside technology can help you by collecting data on bodily functions that may be negatively impacting your sleep quality.5 Sleep trackers often analyze heart rate, blood oxygen levels, and sleep stages to help optimize sleep using real-time data. Some bedside tech and even mattresses provide data and analyze it for you.
Once the data is gathered, it is time to take action. The data will bring to your attention things that may be preventing you from getting quality sleep. For example, an irregular heart rate may be a sign of stress, which has negative effects on sleep. Several tools can be used to correct this, but action needs to be taken.6 In this particular case, meditation and breathing exercises could be used to align the nervous system and improve sleep.7
There are also amazing new technologies on the market designed to help correct automatic bodily functions that aren’t working optimally. Advanced technologies can improve sleep by using vibrations, pressure point stimulation, and breathing regulation. Earbuds and headbands designed for sleep have a comfortable fit and offer relief from noise pollution, which is known to have negative effects on sleep.8
Some sleep trackers also work as alarm clocks and vibrate during the lightest part of the sleep cycle. Waking during this period will make it easier for you to get out of bed and start your day with energy.9
Using biofeedback tools can help improve sleep, mental health,10 cognitive functions, physical performance,11 and more. It does so by increasing awareness of the body’s biological functions, which is a core pillar of successful biohacking for improved sleep quality and overall health. That said, when dealing with a serious illness, biohacking is not meant to replace medical treatment. Always consult a doctor when dealing with a medical condition.

This golden age of technology offers tons of advanced tools to help improve sleep. Ironically, technology can help combat unnatural environmental factors that cause sleep issues. Modern society causes poor sleep through artificial light,1 environmental noise,2 and stressors.3 Biohacking technology can help counteract this.
As discussed above, advanced alarm clocks are a great biohacking tool. Technology has come a long way in the last ten years, now offering alarm clocks that utilize light and advanced sound tools to help wake the body naturally. Everybody knows high-pitched sounds can be jarring in the morning. Advanced alarm clocks offer a solution, using artificial light to mimic the sun and wake the body naturally.4 They also use subtle sounds and vibrations, making your early morning experience pleasant and calm.
Other bedside technology tools include sound machines,5 meditation players,6 and sleep trackers. Sound machines are a great option for people who like to listen to music or color noise while falling asleep, but don’t want to have a cell phone on the nightstand because of the artificial light and sounds which can make it harder to sleep.7 Some bedside tech also act as a reading light– giving off a warm ambiance and making it easier to fall asleep.
Bedside technology products often combine multiple functions into one easy-to-use machine. Many companies offer sound machines, meditation guides, sleep trackers, and alarm clocks all rolled into one bedside companion, making it easy to start using multiple biohacking techniques to improve your sleep naturally!

Virtual reality (VR) is cutting-edge technology designed to biohack your evening routine to allow your mind to attain the state of relaxation needed for rest. VR programs just may be the sleeping solution you’ve been looking for!
Virtual reality (VR) is becoming increasingly popular, and it’s not just for video games. Companies are now designing VR software for relaxation and sleep. Though the technology is new, initial study results on its benefits have been very positive. Immersing completely in a calming environment through virtual reality may actually help improve sleep.1
Using virtual reality programs to relax may decrease the time it takes to fall asleep and increase sleep efficiency.2 Several programs offer immersive experiences, meditations, and breathwork exercises through virtual reality. These programs are designed to help decrease stress, increase mental health, and improve sleep using various tools.
Visualization is a popular method of meditation to help improve sleep, and virtual reality is taking it to the next level. VR programs offer immersive experiences with awe-inspiring3 visuals to help the mind relax and doze off into a deep state of rest. These programs also provide assistance with mindfulness meditation4 and breathing techniques– both of which can help improve sleep.5
Virtual Reality Programs such as Tripp or Starflight can be used right before bed or during the day to help improve sleep and mental well-being.6 Some people prefer to avoid using VR during the hours before they sleep because of the blue-light exposure. The good news is, it can help improve your sleep even if you only use it during the day.
Virtual reality can help improve relaxation, sleep, and mental well-being through new and exciting immersive experiences.7 Many people have found incredible value in this VR for improving mental health and sleep.

Whether you’re waking yourself up at night — or you’re waking up your bedmate — snoring is one of the most common causes of a poor night’s sleep. While advanced tech tools may be able to help, mouth-taping is the optimal solution for a snoring-free night.
Snoring can be a huge sleep issue, not just for the person who does it, but for partners, family, or roommates who are ultimately subjected to loud, jarring sounds at night.1 Fortunately, there are several advanced biohacking technologies that can effectively reduce snoring, helping everyone in the household get better sleep. These technologies include chin straps, mouth guards, pillows, and even wearable technology.
Most anti-snoring devices work according to the same core principle: forced nose breathing. Mouth breathing, especially at night, can be detrimental to health2 and worsen symptoms of snoring and sleep apnea.3
The simplest tool to address this issue is mouth taping, which we spoke more about in the Breathwork sections.4 However, if mouth taping proves to be uncomfortable, specially designed mouthpieces and pillows can correct breathing and reduce snoring.6
Customized tools are often the most effective since everyone’s bodies and alignment habits are different. Wearable and bedside snoring technology use biofeedback technology to detect snoring. They then use vibrations or pillow inflation devices to adjust position during sleep, opening the airways and preventing snoring. Remarkably, these technologies often accomplish this without waking you up! They are generally comfortable and easy to use.
Unfortunately, there is little scientific evidence on the effectiveness of these devices. However, they are designed based on our understanding of snoring and what causes it. Many products have received very positive customer reviews.
Snoring can be very disruptive for everyone in the home, particularly for partners. The good news is that it doesn’t have to be an issue anymore. Thanks to technological advancements, it is now possible for everyone to enjoy a restful night’s sleep.
