There are people who set their alarms every 15 minutes to make sure that they actually wake up but oftentimes they still hit the snooze button several times. I am one of those people. When I still lived with other people, it became a joke that the whole house wakes up from my alarms except me. And even now, this abrupt disruption to my beauty sleep doesn’t really help me adjust to a morning routine. What if there was a device, aside from a clock and my mobile phone, that can help me wake up better and healthier?
That’s the idea behind the Sunrise 1 device by Dreamegg. Not only does it look so much better than regular alarm clocks, but it is actually a 4-in-1 multifunctional device that serves as your sunrise alarm, sound machine, bedside light, and dimmable clock. The most important feature of this is that it is able to simulate a natural sunrise glow so that your circadian rhythm is not so abruptly interrupted and you wake up naturally and gently. We are not meant to be jarred out of our sleep and so this device is a wonderful option to get a more restful morning routine.
Designer:
The Sunrise 1 is able to simulate the sunrise so you can gradually wake up over 15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes. The light emitted from the device goes from 0% to 100% brightness before your scheduled alarm goes off. And even when you’re supposed to wake up, you can choose other sounds rather than the annoying sounds that break through our slumber. There are 29 soothing sounds to choose from: 8 nature sounds, 5 baby sounds, 2 meditation sounds, 2 brown noise, 2 white noise, 3 pink noise, and 7 fan sounds. You can also choose from 15, 30, 45, or 60 minute timer options. The sounds can also be used to help you sleep at night, to relax in the middle of the day, or to drown out unwanted noise.
The device can also serve as your dimmable night light as you get 9 color options that range from warm amber tones to cooler shades. You can independently control it if you don’t want to use it as a sound machine at the same time. It also serves as an actual clock with an easy-to-read clock face and adjustable brightness as well. Setting it up is pretty easy as you don’t need to connect it to your phone or another gadget. You are also able to customize both your morning wake-up routine and your night sleep routine just the way you want it.
Design-wise, it’s also an aesthetic bedside piece that beats your typical plastic gadgets. It is crafted with cotton-linen fabric which is pretty soft and gentle on the skin, in keeping with its gentle wake-up call. The sleek, rounded design can fit in with the usual bedroom decor. Because it is only 2.87 inches thick and 5.91 inches in diameter, which is around the size of an adult palm, you can actually bring it with you when you travel so you can still wake up and sleep the way you want to even outside of your house.
The way that the Sunrise 1 is designed and the features that come with it will make you feel like you’re on vacation every day and not always in a hurry to start work, school, or your chores. Our usual jarring wake up routines may be a reason why we start off our day grumpy or already tired. Having a device like this may slowly turn you into a morning person if you aren’t already. I mean, sure, you may still wake up reluctantly, but at least not angrily.
