It started as a folder of notes: what helped, what did not, and what the research actually says when you read past the headlines. Over time the folder became this site.
There are no sponsored posts here and no affiliate links. If a book or a device is mentioned, it is because it seemed worth mentioning, not because someone paid for it.
What this is not
Nothing on this site is medical advice. If insomnia lasts for weeks, affects your work or mood, or comes with loud snoring, gasping or heavy daytime sleepiness, talk to a doctor. A good sleep clinic is worth more than any gadget reviewed on the internet.
Editorial rules
- Prefer boring, well-replicated advice to exciting, fragile advice.
- Say when the evidence is thin, including when it is thin for something we like.
- No before-and-after photos, no urgency, no countdown timers.
- If a page needs a correction, correct it and note the change.
