Forget sleeping pills and sedative hypnotics, like Nytol and Ambien, a UK-based company has produced a [natural solution to insomnia](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rem), the LightSleeper. This little white orb projects a [soft light](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/night-light-projectors) (for 30 minutes) onto the ceiling above your bed.

The LighSleeper light moves in a soothing, controlled and circular manner. Following the light with your eyes will help relax and calm you helping you to get a good night’s sleep.

The LightSleeper was created by researchers at the [University of Central Lancashire](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sleep-reset-app). The LightSleeper will retail for $209 and is available for a 14-day home trial.
