BedTyme - The insomnia app

My insomnia journey started out of nowhere last year and after resorting to pills, sleep clinics, doctors, specialists and more, Daniel and his team were the actual cure. Understanding fear and sleep anxiety was the cause of my insomnia was eye opening and a different approach compared to what anyone had presented to me during my battle. This app and coach Veronika helped me daily as I battled insomnia and here I am today, sleeping sound each night and if I don’t sleep properly one night, I understand that it’s a speed bump and it’s a natural thing. My perspective has shifted and I’m forever grateful/thankful for discovering the Sleep Coach School. To Veronika, Daniel and the team, keep doing your thing, you’re helping thousands of people out there. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me. Btw the price can be steep but if you’re in dire need for a sleep solution, it’s worth the price tag.

This can’t possibly be right…no one would charge 329.99/month…right?! I took a screenshot in disbelief. Even if this is an error, 33/month is a lot to ask for any app.

I love this app! I started using this app on November 2021 after a sudden insomnia onset on October 2021. It has helped me so much to understand what was happening to me, stop the mystery around it and truly see what was happening and how to take myself out of the insomnia cycle. Insomnia can be terrifying when you first encounter it and you can stay in that misunderstanding for a long time. If you find yourself in that cycle please download this app!!! My coach was Ali and she was amazing at explaining what was happening and how to get away from the vicious cycle. She always takes the time to answer your concerns at length. She will communicate with you once or twice a day but in very well written and long paragraphs that answers all your questions or just give you the reassurance you sometimes need while in your journey out of insomnia. It’s a long journey but The most important thing is to understand that bad nights happen to everyone and nothing is broken with you :)

As someone who’s struggled with insomnia for a long time, “sleep hygiene” has always been the #1 thing recommended to me by doctors, family and friends. This app demonstrates that sleep hygiene does not work, and in fact makes insomnia worse by increasing anxiety around sleeping well. This was a big revelation for me, and has helped me let go of some of my anxieties. The one shortcoming of this app is that it continuously tells you that poor sleep does not cause health issues and that you can still function fine even with little to no sleep, and that’s where it lost me. If I have a night with little to no sleep, the next day I feel like I have the world’s worst hangover. I have severe migraines, am nauseous and often throw up, am dizzy and shaky and have heart palpitations. For me it truly is extremely difficult to function the next day. So the app’s suggestions of “remember all the times you got by on no sleep and were just fine” is very unhelpful to me.

I am well overdue in writing this review. Following an event in my life, I had a sudden onset of insomnia that lasted close to a year, before I encountered this app (as well as Daniel’s book, Set It & Forget It). I had tried multiple things (every medication under the sun, supplements, white noise, psychologist, traditional CBTI sleep training, etc.) to no avail. I was convinced that my ‘condition’ was uniquely terrible and beyond help. I was plagued by feelings of panic, fear and hopelessness, and had, for the first time in my life, fallen into a depression. I couldn’t understand why I couldn’t fix this problem on my own. Daniel’s approach, and the way he helped me understand what was going on with my thoughts around sleep, and how that affected my emotions, and the anxiety (which put a break on my ability to sleep) that followed, was profoundly life changing. Looking back on it now, it seems so obvious and simple, but without Daniel’s gentle, intuitive and incredibly kind method of presenting these insights, I just never would have figured it out on my own. If you are struggling with sleep, honestly, stop searching, stop researching, pull yourself back up from the rabbit hole, and get this app. Most of my life now, I sleep well, but more importantly, on nights that I don’t, I finally understand that it’s normal, common to pretty much every other human being, and not some scary unknown, and thus it has little to no impact on my day-to-day life. And that makes all the difference. Thanks so much Daniel (and Jamie). I’m forever in your debt. ❤️❤️ Sarah

To start I must say that I will be forever grateful to Daniel & his team for this incredible app/program! I have suffered from chronic insomnia for many years (and have tried everything including diligent sleep hygiene) and had come to the point where I firmly believed insomnia/poor sleep was inevitable for me. I took a chance on the free trial with BEDTYME and almost immediately realized this program was different. I have had the opportunity to hear many sleep physicians speak over the years and have never received the education, scientific evidence, and compassionate approach used by Daniel (a wonderful sleep physician!) in this program! I just “graduated” after a few months and my sleep and my life have been transformed!! Not only am I sleeping well for the first time in many years, but my relationship with sleep has completely changed! In addition the personal support & coaching Daniel provided was invaluable and extraordinarily helpful! I cannot express how truly blessed I feel to have discovered this program and to have had Daniels coaching - it has done in a few months what many years of my effort and struggle couldn’t come close to accomplishing. I would not have believed it would be possible but I have lived it! If you have given up hope or think that your insomnia is “different” or part of your personality - please try this & stick with it, you CAN sleep! Thank you so much Daniel!!

I’ve been stuggling with insomnia. It’s been 4 months. My friend told me about this app and about Daniel (sleep coach). This app has a lot of very useful information that just makes so much sense. The best feature of the app is that u can actually msg and talk to Daniel the sleep coach even on the free trial. I’m day 5/7 and my sleep has improved. I really recommend this app! Thanks Daniel!!

This is the app to get if you want better sleep. Teaches you everything you need to know to cure your sleeping issues and the coach is amazingly supportive and knowledgable. If you’re struggling with your sleep, don’t hesitate to download!!

You won’t be disappointed. So informative and the coaching is so helpful. The information here breaks a lot the myths related to sleep and your sleep anxiety will be eliminated. Getting you back sleeping worry free!

This app was truly a Godsend! If you are struggling with insomnia, I highly recommend checking out the Sleep Coach School on YouTube. If those teachings resonate with you, then this app will do wonders. I had tried a more traditional CBTi before this one, and it felt like I was being punished for my sleep issue. This program is highly focused on educating you on the scary, lonely, craziness that is experiencing insomnia. The program teaches the importance of self care and letting go to resolve insomnia. I started sleeping better almost immediately. Having the sleep coach was key! Coach Chris was so encouraging and helped me connect my experiences to the teachings. I recommend this program to anyone who wants to resolve their insomnia without taking a medical approach. After about a month of learning and working with Coach Chris, I feel confident I’ll be able to leave my insomnia in the past! I never write reviews, but this helped me so much that I feel like it’s important to spread the word. There is hope out there for anyone struggling with their sleep!!
