Can I listen before sleep?

Yes. Many people use Subrise as part of their evening routine to unwind, relax, and prepare for sleep. Some sessions are specifically designed to support relaxation and help you transition from the busyness of the day into a calmer state of mind.

Which sessions work best before sleep?

Sessions focused on relaxation, mindfulness, sleep preparation, or calming soundscapes are often particularly well suited for bedtime. Popular choices include relaxation sessions, sleep-focused sessions, mindfulness sessions, stories, and soundscape experiences.

Is it okay if I fall asleep?

Absolutely. If your goal is to relax or prepare for sleep, falling asleep during a session is perfectly normal. Many users intentionally listen in bed and find that sessions help them unwind and drift off more easily.

Do I need to stay awake and pay attention?

No. Bedtime listening is not about perfect concentration. Simply allow yourself to relax and engage with the experience in whatever way feels natural.

Tips for bedtime listening:

  • Lower the volume
  • Reduce distractions
  • Choose calming voices and soundscapes
  • Make listening part of a regular bedtime routine

Subrise can be a great addition to your evening routine. Whether you stay awake, drift in and out of sleep, or fall asleep completely, taking time to slow down and relax before bed can be valuable in itself.

Reset. Reflect. Rewire.
