185 - Why We Need To Disconnect For Better Sleep With Matt Hassett(Loftie)
A few years back, CEO & Founder of Loftie Matt Hassett decided he wanted to try creating healthier routines in his everyday life. The answer? Better sleep. And what was getting in the way? His smartphone, which was really hard to put down. He noticed that most people struggled with phone addiction at bedtime and in the early morning. His “Aha” moment was simple, remove the temptation by designing an alarm clock that was smart enough to not allow you to scroll all night. Firmly grounded in research, Loftie has taken a revolutionary approach to not only their Loftie Alarm Clock, but their new Loftie Lamp that doubles as a sunrise alarm, pairing perfectly with their clock.
How can neglecting sleep play a big role in poor health? How can we disconnect from unnecessary tech? What is the Loftie device to help your sleep? For more on Matt Hassett, you can follow him:
