the dark night
Total darkness. Gentle pressure. A nervous system that finally lets go.
The Weighted Veil does three things simultaneously: it blocks all residual light from reaching your retinas, delivers calibrated gentle pressure across your orbital area, and uses temperature-regulating material to keep your face cool through the night.
Why pressure changes everything
Light touch activates the nervous system. Deep pressure calms it. The Weighted Veil applies consistent, evenly distributed weight across your eyes and brow — stimulating the parasympathetic response the same way a weighted blanket does, but targeted precisely where cortisol and alertness signals are highest at sleep onset.
The result: slower heart rate, reduced eye movement, and faster transition into deep sleep.
Zero light. Zero compromise.
Most sleep masks fail on fit. Light leaks in from the nose bridge or the sides, and a single photon hitting your retina is enough to suppress melatonin production. The Weighted Veil uses a contoured, flexible frame with a deep-set eye cavity — so your eyes never touch the fabric and no light reaches your skin.
What's inside
The filling is evenly distributed micro-glass beads — the same material used in weighted blankets — across a breathable outer shell. The mask sits with authority without creating pressure points.
The Somnos standard
Adjustable strap. Washable cover. Works for side, back, and stomach sleepers. Blocks 100% of light when fitted correctly.
Your retinas go dark. Your nervous system follows.
built for deeper sleep
Every Somnos tool starts with the science of sleep — light, breath, temperature, and the nervous system — and ends as something you'll actually use every night.
designed to disappear
No screens, no noise, no friction. Just quiet hardware that fades into your evening routine and stays out of the way of your sleep.
