Our Progress
In 2023 Healyan received the Innovation Cluster finale award, ranking it as one of the top startups in Europe.
Who created Healyan?
Healyan is a light wellness company that originated from research at the University of California, Berkeley. Founded by a collective of imaginative engineers, artists and neuroscientists, Healyan applies decades of scientific research in light and sound frequencies to make wellness attainable to all.
What makes Healyan unique?
Healyan runs a patent-pending platform of light syncing glasses, an algorithm-powered app, and ecosystem of audio apps to create personalized, functional light sequences to help people focus, relax, and sleep. By fusing science, art, and technology we bring back the magic in our lives.
Why now?
Over the last 100 years, there's been extensive research in wellness, covering everything from nutrition, exercise and mindfulness. Despite all this knowledge being just a click away, depression and anxiety rates are skyrocketing.
What's the problem?
It boils down to information overload. Our overworked nervous system, influenced by our natural circadian rhythms, have not changed to meet the demands of our society. As a result, chronic stress has left more than half our population with less than 8 hours of sleep and a 31% drop in attention spans.
What's the solution?
To stop failing ourselves we need to stop applying old solutions to new problems. We need new technology to help our bodies and brains adapt to the new world, which is why we created Healyan.
