It’s 7:30 a,m. Alarm goes off. I’ll get up in a little bit. 7:45 a.m. Second alarm. Ugh, I really shouldn’t have watched that last episode on Netflix last night. 8 a.m. Third alarm is going off. Is my dog up? Maybe I should get out of bed to make sure she can get outside. 8:15 a.m. Spring out of bed with sudden realization: OH MY GOD I AM GOING TO BE LATE FOR WORK.

 

Sound familiar? It’s okay. The first step to admitting you have a problem with getting up in the morning is acceptance. If you know you need half an hour to prepare yourself for work in the morning, yet you only give yourself 10 minutes, you have a problem. Sensorwake understands.

 

 

What is Sensorwake, you ask? This new product uses olfactory technology to promote alertness for those mornings where you just can’t seem to get out of bed. Does the smell of coffee get you energized? Maybe you’d rather awake to the scent of your very own chocolate factory in your room? If so, this unique product would be perfect. Clinical trials suggest using multiple senses to awake test subjects is more effective than just auditory reactions. Using gentle, yet effective measures, Sensorwake can turn even the laziest of us into a bright, cheery morning person.

 

Currently available for pre-sale for $99, the Sensorwake system will be available later this month. Each system comes with a free toast-scented capsule. Additional capsules retail for $5.45, with an average lifetime of 30 uses. The only thing that should be scrambling in your mornings is eggs. Make that a reality with the Sensorwake system.
