3.

Somnology has developed “Sleep Lab as a Service” (SLaaS®) — a scalable end-to-end technology platform that addresses the four pillars of attaining and maintaining healthy sleep:
1. Sleep assessment, which includes real-time sleep report and telehealth session,
2. Sleep coaching via telehealth,
4. Sleep specialist intervention (by referral) when needed. Somnology supports the full sleep ecosystem. Current sleep companies and professionals address only one, or at most two, pillars of good sleep. For the existing community of sleep specialists and coaches, Somnology’s technology platform and referrals increase efficiency and revenue. Effectively, Somnology’s SLaaS® brings sleep testing and monitoring to you. This replaces the protracted, uneconomical, and pain-staking steps currently needed to characterize your sleep accurately. For existing home monitoring sleep companies, Somnology’s platform provides a complete chronic disease management solution. For companies focused on treatment, Somnology provides medical grade home testing, diagnosis, and monitoring. Testing and monitoring meets medical grade requirements. Somnology’s SomnoRing™ is a highly accurate (FDA cleared) and affordable sleep monitoring device. Unlike other home sleep monitors, the SomnoRing™ can monitor sleep apnea and insomnia. The SomnoRing™ is successor to Somnology’s Plex® Sleep Scanner used in two clinical trials by the National Institute of Health (“NIH”). With foremost consideration of our users’ privacy, Somnology products are highly encrypted and secure.

🚗💤 Drowsy Driving: The Hidden Risk on Holiday Roads

As millions of travelers hit the road this holiday season, one often-overlooked danger deserves attention: driving while sleep-deprived.

After 17 hours awake, your reaction time mirrors someone over the legal alcohol limit — and even brief “microsleeps” can have deadly consequences. Late-night packing, early departures, and long drives only make the risk greater.

Before your next trip, prioritize rest:
Get 7–9 hours of sleep for several nights beforehand.�
Avoid driving overnight or during your post-lunch energy dip.
�Take breaks every few hours — or swap drivers when possible.

Safe driving starts with healthy sleep. Read more in our latest blog, "Drowsy Driving: The Hidden Risk on Holiday Roads":

💤 Sleep & Blood Sugar: The Connection

This World Diabetes Day, we’re highlighting how sleep plays a vital role in blood sugar regulation.
Poor sleep doesn’t just leave you tired — it can make your body more resistant to insulin, increase cravings for high-carb foods, and elevate stress hormones like cortisol, all of which disrupt glucose balance.

Consistent, quality sleep helps support stable energy, better appetite control, and healthier metabolic function.

Small steps matter: keep a regular bedtime, limit late-night eating, and aim for 7–9 hours of rest each night.

The scariest risk this season isn’t supernatural — it’s sleep loss. Fatigue is a silent risk factor, causing minor misjudgments up to multimillion-dollar losses. From tarmacs to trains, it’s a creeping hazard that blurs judgment and slows reaction time across every industry.

�🎃 This Halloween, we spotlight how sleep loss has fueled real-world disasters—and what leaders can do to keep teams safe, alert, and productive. Read our latest blog post – “When Sleep Turns Deadly.”

💤 Sleep and mental health go hand in hand.

Sleep plays a powerful role in emotional balance — helping the brain process stress, regulate mood, and recover from daily challenges. When sleep is cut short, the brain’s emotion centers become overactive, making it harder to manage anxiety, irritability, and focus.

🧠 Simple ways to protect both:
• Keep a consistent bedtime and wake time — even on weekends.
• Limit screens and bright light an hour before bed.
• Take 10 minutes to unwind with breathing, stretching, or journaling.

Good sleep isn’t just rest — it’s an essential part of caring for your mind. This World Mental Health Day, make sure to take care of your sleep.

🛌🍎 Teachers deserve rest too.

On World Teachers’ Day, we celebrate the dedication, patience, and energy that educators bring to their classrooms every day. But behind the lesson plans and long hours, sleep often gets cut short.

A study found that 43% of educators report sleeping less than 6 hours a night (Ball State University) — well below the 7-9 hours recommended for healthy function. Poor sleep impairs focus, memory, emotional regulation, and classroom performance.

Quality rest fuels focus, patience, and emotional resilience — all of which are vital for teaching and learning. Even small improvements in sleep routines can help restore the energy teachers need to thrive, both in and out of the classroom.

Here’s to the educators who give so much — and deserve the time to recharge.

Sleep loss doesn’t just accompany Alzheimer’s — it shapes it. 🧠💤

Up to half of people living with Alzheimer’s experience significant sleep challenges, from insomnia and night wandering to excessive daytime sleepiness. Poor sleep can worsen cognitive symptoms, raise caregiver stress, and even play a role in the disease process itself.

This World Alzheimer’s Day, we’re highlighting the vital connection between sleep and Alzheimer’s — and why supporting sleep is essential for both patients and caregivers.

🛌 The cycle of chronic pain and poor sleep

For many living with chronic pain, restful sleep can feel out of reach. Pain makes it harder to fall asleep or stay asleep — and in turn, poor sleep can heighten pain sensitivity, creating a difficult cycle to break.

Better sleep isn’t just about rest. It can help regulate inflammation, reduce stress, and improve overall pain management.

This Pain Awareness Month, let’s recognize the strong connection between sleep and pain — and the importance of addressing both together.

💤 Recovery is more than rest — it’s healing.

This National Recovery Month, we’re highlighting the role of sleep in physical and emotional recovery. From repairing muscles to regulating hormones, sleep is essential for building resilience and restoring health.

Today is World Physical Therapy Day — a reminder of the powerful connection between movement, recovery, and rest.

Good sleep supports the healing process by allowing muscles and tissues to repair, while physical activity and therapy can improve sleep quality in return. Together, they create a cycle of resilience and recovery.

Here’s to the therapists who help people restore strength — and to the restorative power of sleep itself.

Good sleep is one of your strongest defenses.

When you’re well-rested, your body produces immune cells and proteins that help fight infection and reduce inflammation. But even a few nights of poor sleep can lower immune response, making it harder to recover from illness.

Here’s how sleep supports your immune system:
• Boosts infection-fighting cells – Sleep strengthens the production of T-cells and antibodies.
• Improves recovery – Rest gives your body the resources it needs to heal faster.
• Regulates inflammation – Quality sleep helps prevent the chronic inflammation that can weaken immune defenses.

As cold and flu season approaches, prioritizing consistent, quality rest is one of the simplest and most effective ways to protect your health.

How can we set boundaries before fall? One way is prioritizing our sleep and screen time.

Exposure to blue light from phones, tablets, and TVs in the evening can delay melatonin production and disrupt your natural sleep rhythm. Even 30–60 minutes of screen-free time before bed can help your brain transition into rest mode more smoothly.

As routines shift for fall, now’s the time to reset your screen habits — your sleep (and focus) will thank you. Consider setting tech boundaries such as:

• Using an alarm clock instead of your phone to resist late-night scrolling
• Creating a screen-free routine in the evening
• Encouraging offline activities before bed - reading, meditation, journaling

Protecting your sleep helps support mental health recovery. You will be able to be your best selves at work, at home, and in your communities.

Today marks World Senior Citizen's Day – did you know that sleep patterns change as we age?

Sleep health is critical for older adults due to the natural changes in circadian rhythms, often leading to earlier sleep and wake times. However, poor sleep is not a normal part of aging.

Conditions like insomnia, restless leg syndrome, and sleep apnea are more common in seniors and often go underdiagnosed. Therefore, supporting sleep health can make a difference in improved memory, stronger immunity, sharper mood, and lower risk of chronic complications.

Tips for Senior Citizen Sleep Health:
• Limit screen time before bed.
• Create a relaxing and consistent bedtime routine.
• Ensure a quiet, cool, and dark sleeping environment.
• Seek professional guidance if poor sleep quality persists.

Better sleep helps the brain consolidate memories, clear out toxins, and regulate emotions. Let’s advocate for senior sleep health, and empower recovery!
