- WHAT IS LOÓNA? loóna is the first app that lets you quickly disconnect from a long stressful day and get in the right mood for sleep. - SO, IT'S ANOTHER SLEEP APP, RIGHT? Not exactly. loóna isn’t a list of direct go-to-sleep techniques, but rather a mood-altering app that helps you to stay calm during the day and prepares you emotionally for going to sleep in the evening. - WHY IS BEDTIME MOOD IMPORTANT? Negative emotions we accumulate during the day are processed and consolidated by our brain during sleep making them more difficult to disassociate from when faced again in the future. Moreover, feeling angry, anxious, down, or, the opposite, excited, and elated, is likely to affect latencies to sleep onset and REM-sleep. People mistake it for the symptoms of a sleep disorder, but in reality, they just may be in the wrong mood for sleep. - HOW DOES LOÓNA WORK? From the wake up and during the busy day Loóna will support your emotional states with playlists and immersive stories. Each night you’ll have a recommended escape. An escape is a guided session that combines activity-based relaxation, storytelling, and sounds in a unique way. Complete it to shut the frantic world out, reset your mind, and create the perfect mood for sleep. Loóna saves your escape sessions to your Apple Health app. The upgrade to loóna PLUS provides access to the entire collection of escapes.
