How to activate the
SOMOsphere acupressure feature

People respond differently to acupressure. Some people notice an immediate sense of calm.
In others, it’s a more subtle, transitional experience.

In most cases, the gentle pressure of the SOMOsphere that occurs from just wearing the
mask brings on a sense of sleep-inducing calm and relaxation. Some people prefer to activate
the SOMOsphere with a gentle touch of the finger.

In either case, you should experience a relaxing effect as you slip into sleep.
