In today’s busy world, winding down at night can feel harder than ever. We know sleep is essential for health, and it’s easy to feel stuck when our brains are racing, our phones keep us scrolling, and stress keeps us awake. That’s where Moonbird, a handheld breathing coach, comes in.
At Mermaid Well, we’re always exploring science-backed tools that support nervous system regulation, sleep, and overall wellness. Moonbird has become one of my personal favorites—because it works, and it has transformed my own nighttime routine in ways I didn’t expect!
What Is Moonbird?
Moonbird is a smart, handheld breathing device that guides you through scientifically validated breathing exercises. Shaped to fit comfortably in your hand, it gently expands and contracts—helping you inhale and exhale at the right pace. No screens. No apps. No overthinking. Just simple, intuitive guidance.
It connects with your body’s natural rhythms to:
- Calm stress and anxiety
- Lower heart rate and blood pressure
- Help you get to sleep faster
- Improve sleep quality
- Support nervous system balance
It feels natural in your hand, and because it’s screen-free, it reduces the stimulation that often keeps us awake.
How It Works
Moonbird uses biofeedback and a soothing, physical cue. As you hold it, you feel it gently expand (inhale) and contract (exhale). Your body naturally follows along, slowing your breath and activating your parasympathetic nervous system—the “rest and restore” mode.
You can use it for just 5–10 minutes before bed, during a stressful moment, or even in between tasks to reset your nervous system. It’s like having a breathing coach in the palm of your hand!
Dr. Kendra’s Story: From Scrolling to Sleeping
As a physical therapist and clinic owner, I know the importance of sleep, and honestly it’s something I’ve struggled with for years. At bedtime, I would pick up my phone to “just check one last email,” and the next thing I knew, I was scrolling through social media, stimulating my brain instead of resting it.
That’s when I started using Moonbird.
Instead of reaching for my phone, I reached for Moonbird. Within minutes, I could feel my breath slowing down and my body letting go of the day. My mind stopped racing, my shoulders softened, and I actually looked forward to bedtime again.
Now, I fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up feeling more restored. Moonbird improved my sleep, and it helped me create a healthier evening routine that supports my nervous system and overall wellbeing.
