The Sleep Shepherd Blue is a complete sleep enhancing
system that uses scientifically proven technology to
actively improve your sleep quality. The Sleep Shepherd
Blue is unique in that it works with your brain’s natural
structure to slow your brainwaves down and guide you to
better sleep without altering brain chemistry in any way.
This technology incorporates a biofeedback system that
utilizes specialized tones to help entrain your brainwaves
to a slower frequency in preparation for sleep. While
wearing the Sleep Shepherd Blue, you will begin to
perceive a rhythmic pulse over a constant carrier tone.
This phenomenon is created by your brain deciphering
the difference in frequency between the two tones that are
played into either ear.

The specialized tones automatically shut off when your
brain has reached a sleeping state. However, the unit
continues to passively monitor your brainwaves and
movement throughout the night and is ready to come
back on whenever needed.
Brainwaves slow as
they entrain to the
Sleep Shepherd’s
output tones
Tones automatically
adjust based on
data obtained from
sensors in real time
The forehead and ear sensors contained within the Sleep
Shepherd Blue closely monitor your brainwaves. The data
is used in real time to adjust the tones delivered to each
ear such that the resultant frequency of the tones is always
slightly slower than your current brainwave frequency.
