We live in a stressful world, where getting a good night's sleep can be a difficult thing. Lack of quality sleep can lead to even more stress and disorders, and it all becomes a vicious circle.

To combat this problem, the Hibino Sound Therapy Lab (led by renowned composer Norihiko Hibino) and Mission One have worked together to develop the "Prescription for Sleep" application for iPhone and iPod Touch.

Features

Peaceful Sleep Via Music and Imagery

There are four stages of sleep, and the goal of Prescription for Sleep is to guide you to the relaxed state necessary to enter the first stage. This is done through soothing imagery and therapeutic music, recorded live on acoustic instruments at a rhythm that recreates the pulse of a mother's heartbeat as heard from the womb.

High-Quality Sound with Therapeutic Frequencies

The music in Prescription for Sleep contains some inaudible frequencies in the 50-60 kHz range, which replicate frequencies found in nature, such as those of a murmuring forest stream. These 24-bit, 96 kHz recordings were created using special mastering techniques, and have a bandwidth that most standard sound sources cannot duplicate.

Simple, Peaceful Melodies

Beautiful, simple melodies give you something to appreciate while the healing effects of the music and visuals are taking place.

A Dreamlike Story

This work features four complete songs that take you on a journey -- from a storybook, to the stars, to heaven, and to the source of life. The soft colors and slow movements will provide tranquility as you embark on this journey.



Project Concept
The key to a good night's sleep is allowing yourself to feel affection.

Affection can be divided into the following three types: the affection a child feels from a mother's heartbeat while in the womb, the affection you feel naturally just from being alive, and the affection felt from those close to you, such as family, friends, and lovers. When one feels this affection and allows it in, one gains a sense of calm and tranquility, which is the first step through the doors of sleep. Once entered, the energy provided by this deep, tranquil sleep is something you will be able to give back to others the following day.

No matter what technique or medicine you try, if you don't feel this affection and allow it in, you cannot achieve a true sense of peace, and will not be able to get a truly restful night's sleep.

There are several ways to communicate affection, such as words, touch, and music; but the very first experience of affection that all humans have is via sound -- namely the rhythmic beating of a mother's heart heard from within the womb.

This affection is a primal, formative sensation, and the goal of Prescription for Sleep is to bring you, via sound and imagery, the peace that comes from allowing yourself to receive this sensation.
