Best magnesium for sleep in winter: what the evidence actually supports (and realistic recovery benefits too)
Forms, dosing, food sources, and tempering the hype around magnesium glycinate for sleep.
Sleep can feel elusive when life gets busy or the mind won’t settle. I’ve tried various ways to create a calmer bedtime routine over the years, using top sleep products like sound machines to grounding mats.
Lately, I’ve been drawn more to subtle energy tools, especially those that align with the natural frequencies I explore through crystals. You may have noticed me wearing my quartz crystal necklace in some of my reviews on the Alastair Running / Trail & Kale YouTube channels.
The Energy Muse 7.83Hz Frequency Generator caught my attention as a silent device tuned to the Schumann Resonance, Earth’s natural electromagnetic pulse at roughly 7.83Hz.
The brand frames it as a way to reintroduce that grounding rhythm into modern spaces disrupted by tech and stress.
I’ve tested it for several weeks, placing it bedside, next to my crystal collection, most nights and occasionally traveling with it.
I made it a part of my wind-down before bed to test it out properly, and look, I’m not going to outright tell you this thing works because I believe receiving positive energy/frequency, like from crystals or generators, is a subjective thing; if you’re open to receiving positive energy then you’ll get more out of it than if you’re not.
Call it a placebo effect, or even pseudo science that maybe we don’t fully understand yet, either way, it makes for interesting learning, which you’re going to get a little dose of in this review.

Performance review
The device works silently.
You plug it in or charge it (and use it with the built-in battery), switch it on, and place it nearby.
There’s no sound, no vibration, just a gentle blue pulsing light to show it’s active.
Energy Muse describes it as creating a coherent field that syncs the body with Earth’s natural rhythm, supporting deeper sleep, a nervous system reset, and grounding against modern EMF disruptions.
It’s worth shuffling tech around in your bedroom so that items like wireless charging docks, for example, are far enough away from you that the EMF that they give off has enough distance to dissipate – that’s roughly a meter in my measurements.
The science around Schumann Resonance shows potential links to relaxation and circadian regulation in limited studies, though larger research is still needed.
In my experience, effects built gradually over a week or two.
Nights feel a little calmer, with easier wind-down and fewer middle-of-the-night wakes.
Sleep seemed deeper and more restorative, especially when paired with my large quartz crystal on the nightstand. Quartz is known in crystal communities for amplifying energy and clarity, and placing it near the generator felt like a natural complement.
The frequencies seemed to enhance that clean, focused vibration I associate with clear quartz.
My cat was strangely drawn to the space around it at first, often settling nearby.
A couple of practical notes. My unit has a subtle flashing light which can be mildly distracting at first, I ended up covering the LED.
Charging holds well for portable use, but I think it’s best to keep it plugged in for consistency and knowing for sure that it is up and running, as you won’t be able to see whether or not the blue light indicator is on, in the daylight.
There’s no timer or adjustable intensity, so it’s always on when powered.
Overall, it creates a quietly supportive atmosphere that aligns nicely with crystal practices and intentional wind-downs.
My verdict
The Energy Muse 7.83Hz Frequency Generator has become a subtle but welcome part of my sleep routine.
It delivers that gentle grounding feel without noise or complexity, and pairing it with crystals like my quartz necklace amplifies the sense of calm clarity I value.
For anyone into crystal energy or seeking a low-key way to support better rest amid modern disruptions, it’s worth trying.
The effects are gentle and cumulative rather than dramatic, and while hard science is still emerging, the personal experience feels meaningful.
At $99.88, it’s a thoughtful investment for calmer nights, especially if you already appreciate Energy Muse’s crystal-focused approach. I’ll keep using mine alongside my quartz pieces.
