Novelle-Approved
Products for a
Genuinely Clean Sleep
Every product here was selected because it addresses something real: the dust mites in your mattress, the bacteria on your pillowcase, the VOCs off-gassing from synthetic bedding, the allergens circulating in your sealed bedroom. These are not luxury upgrades. They are the difference between a sleep environment that is working for your body and one that is quietly working against it.

Austin Air Bedroom Machine
The only residential air purifier used in Johns Hopkins clinical trials
The Austin Air Bedroom Machine is in a category of its own. It is the specific model used in three randomized controlled clinical trials at Johns Hopkins University Medical School, studying its effects on COPD, respiratory health in pregnant women and infants, and indoor NO₂ reduction. The all-steel housing eliminates the off-gassing problem common to plastic-housed purifiers. Endorsed by the National Sleep Foundation.
Novelle Note: The only residential air purifier with peer-reviewed clinical trial data. Endorsed by the National Sleep Foundation specifically for bedroom use.

It is also certified by SleepScore Labs, independently validated to improve sleep quality through air purification. Near-silent operation at 25 dB makes it ideal for bedroom use.
Novelle Note: Pair with the Austin Air Bedroom Machine in larger bedrooms, or use the Alen as a standalone solution in smaller spaces.

Luxury Organic Tencel & Bamboo Sheet Set
Silky-soft lyocell sheets, hypoallergenic and deeply breathable
Made from a blend of organic Tencel lyocell and viscose from bamboo, these sheets are naturally hypoallergenic, moisture-wicking, and temperature-regulating. Lyocell fibers have a smooth, round structure that is less hospitable to dust mites and bacteria than conventional cotton. The deep-pocket design fits most mattresses and the fabric softens with every wash. Highly rated for sensitive skin and hot sleepers.
Novelle Note: Lyocell's closed-loop production process uses significantly less water than conventional cotton and the smooth fiber surface is gentler on skin during 8 hours of contact.
Bedsure Cooling Comforter
OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, independently tested free of harmful chemicals
The Bedsure Cooling Comforter carries OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification, independently tested for over 100 harmful substances including pesticides, heavy metals, and formaldehyde. Woven from ultra-fine fibers with moisture-wicking properties that reduce the humidity dust mites require to thrive. Hypoallergenic by material design, not by chemical treatment. Highly rated for temperature regulation and all-night comfort.
Novelle Note: Reducing moisture in your bedding is one of the most effective ways to limit dust mite populations, which require humidity to survive.
SNOOZ White Noise Machine
Real mechanical white noise, no EMFs, no WiFi, no digital artifacts
Unlike digital sound machines, SNOOZ uses a real fan to generate true white noise, consistent acoustic masking that blocks sleep-disrupting sounds. No WiFi, no EMF concerns, and no digital artifacts. Creates a stable acoustic environment that promotes more continuous sleep. The mechanical sound is more natural and less fatiguing than digitally looped audio.
Novelle Note: Set at a consistent volume each night to build a reliable sleep association.
BetterSleep App (Premium)
Guided sleep hypnosis, binaural beats, and subconscious reprogramming
A comprehensive sleep wellness app featuring guided sleep hypnotherapy, CBT-I techniques, binaural beats, and sleep stories. Sleep hypnosis has shown promising results in emerging research, one study published in Sleep found that hypnotic suggestion increased slow-wave sleep in susceptible individuals. The hypnagogic state (the transition into sleep) is when the subconscious mind is most receptive to suggestion.
Novelle Note: Start with the 'Sleep Hypnosis' category. Research suggests susceptibility to hypnotic suggestion varies, give it at least 2 weeks to assess your response.
Insight Timer (Free + Premium)
The world's largest library of sleep meditations and yoga nidra sessions
Over 150,000 guided meditations, sleep music tracks, and talks from leading mindfulness teachers. Particularly valuable for its yoga nidra (yogic sleep) content, a practice that EEG studies have shown produces delta brain waves (deep sleep waves) while the practitioner remains conscious. The free version alone contains exceptional sleep-specific content.
Magnesium Glycinate (400mg)
The most bioavailable magnesium form for nervous system calming and deep sleep
Magnesium glycinate is among the most bioavailable and gentle forms of magnesium, essential for GABA activation (the brain's primary calming neurotransmitter), muscle relaxation, and cortisol regulation. Unlike magnesium oxide (the inexpensive form in most supplements), glycinate is well-tolerated and does not cause digestive upset. Magnesium deficiency is common in Western diets and is associated with disrupted sleep and reduced sleep depth.
Novelle Note: Take 30 to 60 minutes before bed. Consult your healthcare provider before starting any supplement.
L-Theanine (200mg)
The amino acid that promotes calm alertness and smooth sleep transitions
L-Theanine, found naturally in green tea, promotes alpha brain wave activity, the relaxed, alert state associated with meditation and the pre-sleep wind-down. It reduces anxiety and mental chatter without sedation, making the transition into sleep smoother and more natural. Pairs well with magnesium glycinate as part of a pre-sleep nutrition protocol.
Novelle Note: Consult your healthcare provider before starting any supplement.
