3:07 am

You slept through it at midnight. At 3am the same noise wakes you.

Sleep gets lighter as the night goes on. By three, a snore, a scooter or a door is enough. These take the edge off the room, so you stay asleep through the light hours. They do the same for an exam week or ten quiet minutes.

The story

Her night, and then her day.

  1. 11:30 pm

    You fall asleep fine. He is already snoring. You barely notice.

  2. 3:07 am

    The deep sleep is spent. Now every snore lands. An ambulance. The neighbour's dog. You are awake, already writing today's list in your head.

  3. 7:00 am

    The alarm. You feel like you slept four hours, because you did.

  4. 2:30 pm

    You need a nap, but the day is full. By now the whole day is bent out of shape.

  5. Tonight

    Soft silicone, 24 decibels quieter. The snore becomes a murmur. Three o'clock passes and you never meet it.

The science, plainly

Why this works, and who says so.

2nd halfof the night is lighter

Deep sleep is packed into the first hours. Later cycles are lighter and hold more dreaming sleep, so a sound you slept through at midnight can wake you at three.

6.5 millionEuropeans

suffer chronic high sleep disturbance from environmental noise. The body reacts to sound during sleep even when you never wake enough to remember it.

1.4xwomen compared with men

Women are about 40 percent more likely than men to have insomnia. The same noisy bedroom costs her more than it costs him.

Questions

Will I still hear my alarm?

Yes. 24 dB takes the edge off the room. It does not seal you in silence, and a phone alarm on the bedside table comes through.

How do I find my size?

Start with S or M. If you feel pressure, go down. If the sound does not drop, go up. The guide in the box takes two minutes.

Can I use them at work?

For an open office or a library, yes. They are made for sleep, study and quiet moments. They are not hearing protection for building sites or machinery.

How long do they last?

Wash with warm water and mild soap. Replace the tips when they lose their spring, usually after a few months of nightly use.

Tonight will be as loud as last night. You do not have to hear it.

Still deciding? Ask Clara, bottom right, any time of night.
