INSOMNIA AND SLEEP DISORDERS
Do you have trouble getting a good night’s sleep ?
- Insomnia
- Waking up during the night
- Physical pain
- Lack of concentration
- …
These days, lack of sleep is extremely common – for instance, recent research shows that in France around 35% of people have some kind of problem around sleep.
Sleep is crucial for our health and for good physical and mental recovery. And yet we often forget to give sleep the attention and care it deserves – we insist on looking at our screens right up until bedtime, we don’t go to bed at regular hours, we drink sugary drinks at dinner …
As a result, the sleep we get doesn’t restore us as it should and this can be dangerous in the long run. It may lead to problems like daytime, lethargy, being overweight, diabetes, depression, learning difficulties, poor concentration, and heart disease, among other things.
That’s why it’s so important to make sure we sleep well. If you don’t want to take pills, there are also alternative medicines that can help.

The first signs of sleep disorders can appear very early in babies, with nightmares, night terrors or other disturbances. Sleep can also be a problem during the teenage years. In 2018, 88% of French teens and young adults admitted they don’t get much sleep.
How does it work ?
Serotonin, a neurotransmitter in our central nervous system, plays an important part in this dysfunction. Serotonin affects the regulation of our circadian cycle and has a rold in some psychiatric disorders such as stress, anxiety, phobia and depression.
Sometimes it’s physical …
If you have trouble sleeping, there might also be an underlying medical cause. For instance physical issues like sleep apnea, snoring, restless leg syndrome or periodic limb movement disorder might explain your sleep disturbance.

The Hypnos mask helps you sleep better through its guided breathing exercises (cardiac coherence) and self-hypnosis programs.
Our guided breathing exercises are designed for you to achieve cardiac coherence, which is a tried and tested way to attain a peaceful and relaxed state. This rhythmic breathing helps regulate your heartbeat and calm your thoughts, putting you in the right frame of mind to fall asleep.
We have also created self-hypnosis programs specifically as an aid to sleep, because a 2014 study demonstrated how hypnosis improves sleep quality and increases the duration of the deep sleep phase by around 80%. Your Hypnos mask enables you to reorder your sleep patterns using hypnosis. Each session is devised and narrated by a hypnotherapist.
All your senses are gently engaged by the Hypnos mask, which surrounds you in three-dimensional sound with synchronized vibrations and multicoloured lights. Light plays a very important role in sleep. In 2002, scientists discovered how it affects our biological rhythms and by working with light (phototherapy), you can achieve a state where it’s easier to fall asleep.
Hypnos is an ideal aid to rediscovering your natural ability to relax and fall asleep easily.
STRESS & ANXIETY
Do you suffer from feelings of anxiety ?
- Fear of public speaking
- High blood pressure
- Poor memory
- Headaches
- …
Stress starts out as a physiological reaction in the face of an unpredictable situation, such as an exam or public presentation.
We often think of stress as something negative but we shouldn’t forget it can also stimulate us to move forward. Stress can be beneficial or harmful, it depends on how you can handle it.
Obviously stress is harming us if we develop skin disorders like psoriasis or eczema, cardiovascular disease (high blood pressure), cognitive disorders (poor memory), respiratory problems like asthma, neurological complaints (headache), or gastrointestinal ailments such as an ulcer. Anxiety can lead to panic attacks, social anxiety, phobias (claustrophobia, agoraphobia, arachnophobia), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and depression.
But you can learn how to handle stress and anxiety in order to harness its beneficial aspects.

- France ranks third in the world for work-related depression among its workforce.
- Stress levels have increased by almost 50% in the past 30 years, and stress counts as one of the most serious problems of our times.
- Over 30, 000 French workers suffered a burn-out between 2007 and 2012.

A thriving child !
Know a child who’s struggling with difficult issues ?
- Hyperactivity
- Fear of the dark
- Attention disorder
- Lack of confidence
- Anger, fear or anxiety
A child is an adult in the making, so it’s very important to build solid psychological foundations during childhood. We know that most adults who need help (and sometimes therapy) for issues like sleep disorders, lack of confidence, stress or chonic anxiety, didn’t have the chance to build those solid foundations. Clearly children need the best support we can give them to grow into thriving adults.
Why it matters :
- Children who have difficulty falling asleep at night – or who don’t get enough sleep – can suffer from lack of concentration at school, be lethargic, and show an attention deficit.
- Children who feel stressed or overwhelmed in their daily lives can suffer from low self-confidence and anxiety, or have anger issues.

Almost 30% of children today suffer from sleep disorders. This is problematic because studies show lack of sleep suppresses the growth hormone, which is normally released while they’re sleeping. Sleep deficit hampers the child’s development and also inhibits the production of other hormones like insulin and the “hunger hormone” ghrelin.
How much sleep do children need ?
The amount of sleep needed varies from child to child but on average :
- Newborns need around 16 hours of sleep
- 3 year-olds need 12 hours
- 6 year-olds need 10 hours
- 12 year-olds need 9 hours
Researchers at University College London (UCL) have highlighted how, besides these minimum amounts of sleep required for a child’s healthy development, it’s very important the establish a regular bedtime !

Sports & Performance
Do you struggle to stay on top of your game ?
- Lack of motivation
- Poor concentration
- Lack of self-confidence
- Below-par performance
Sport has many virtues beyond its physical benefits. When your body’s active it releases dopamine and endorphin hormones which stimulate feelings of pleasure while also eliminating stress and calming anxiety. Sport gives you a psychological boost that helps you face up to everyday hiccups and enables you to achieve your personal and professional goals.
