Synthetic Sleep® FAQ

Synthetic Sleep® is one of the most powerful Shiftwave protocols. Here are answers to common questions so you can get the most out of it.

Can I use Synthetic Sleep® every day?

Yes! Synthetic Sleep® is safe to use daily. Synthetic sleep has been used in many different ways; before bed to prime yourself for a good night sleep, a truly restful reset in the middle of the day, or first thing in the morning if you wake up not feeling rested. This is not an exhaustive list, so find out when Synthetic Sleep works best for you.

How is Synthetic Sleep® different from taking a nap?

A nap can sometimes leave you groggy, especially if you wake up mid-cycle. Synthetic Sleep® guides your body into deep restoration without the grogginess. It mimics the benefits of deep sleep while keeping you in a wakeful, restorative state.

What if I actually fall asleep during the session?

That’s perfectly fine — and very common! If your body needs the extra rest, falling asleep means you’re getting what you need. The protocol will still provide benefits whether you drift off or stay awake.

Do I need to do the full 60 minutes?

The full 60-minute session is the most powerful, but shorter sessions are still effective. Even 20–30 minutes can leave you feeling refreshed and reset.

When is the best time to use it?

  • Before bed → to prepare for a deeper night’s sleep
  • Midday → for recovery and a “reset” without caffeine
  • After waking → When not feeling rested after waking up, or to fight jet lag.e
  • After exercise or long days → to recharge and support physical recovery

How does Synthetic Sleep® help my brain?

During deep sleep, your brain naturally flushes out waste and toxins. Synthetic Sleep® helps mimic that restorative process, supporting long-term brain health and sharper mental clarity.

Will it replace my regular sleep?

No — Synthetic Sleep® is not a substitute for a full night’s sleep. Think of it as a powerful supplement to support your body and brain when you need extra restoration.
