Cool Koala: Bedtime Meditation

Our 4 year old has ADHD and bedtime was such a struggle. Sometimes lasting 2+ hours. We were tired, frustrated, and hopeless. After adding Cool Koala to our routine, he’s usually asleep after the music finishes. We love the characters, the lessons, and the music. We also requested the personalized meditation which was a huge win with our son.

Thank you Ryan and Cool Koala for such a beautiful addition to our bedtime routine! Not only do these meditations help my son relax into sleep, they provide him with helpful tools he can use during his day to deal with stress, anxiety, worry, frustration and to help cultivate a grateful heart. My son regularly asks to listen to Cool Koala before bed! Thank you so much!

This app put me to sleep! Most nights I have trouble sleeping but with this I was asleep as soon as they stopped speaking and I the next morning I felt so refreshed and ready to go. I haven’t slept so well in a long time. Love this app so much and I’m so grateful for it!

My brother loves this app! Me and him use it every night!

Ryan & Cool Koala have become part of our bedtime routine & we couldn’t be happier. My 7 year old daughter is in the 2nd grade & she’s definitely a busy body... Sometimes it’s hard to get her to calm & wind down at night because her brain is still going going going. Ever since Ryan & Cool Koala have become a part of our bedtime routine, our nights have been more peaceful, more loving, more calm, & more beautiful. My daughter requests it every single night without fail. Not only do the meditations get her to sleep fast 100 percent of the time, but they’re also very informative & teach kids about beautiful things like… Positive feelings & emotions, being loved, empowerment, being grateful, letting go of negatively, finding inner peace & so much more. Ryan’s voice is so inviting & so soothing that even I have found myself dozing off quite a few times. Lol. The icing on the cake was when I sent Ryan a request for a “personalized meditation” for my daughter & he emailed us one back fairly quickly! My daughter was so surprised when I played it for her that night. “Mommy OMG they said my naaaaammme OMG” & she jumped out of bed with excitement lol. That was the only night where it took us a bit longer to get to sleep because she insisted on me playing the part where they said her name over & over again. What joy! We are very grateful to have found an app that can truly integrate into our lives. Give this app a try. It’s amazing, it’s simple, it’s user friendly, & so very rewarding.

I downloaded the Cool Koala app in order to help my son calm down at the end of the day and prepare for bedtime. After using this app for several months, I have seen a remarkable positive impact not only at bedtime, but throughout the day. The meditations offer breathing and visualization techniques which prove to be helpful in various situations (for example, imagining your worries put into a balloon and drifting away into the sky), and our son now asks to listen to Cool Koala every night. From Ryan's calm voice to the relaxing accompanying guitar music, we have found this app and the meditations it provides to be the ideal way to close each day with our son. We highly recommend this app!

Highly recommend! My son loves it and it helps him fall asleep quickly

Cool Koala has really changed our bedtime routine for the better! I love doing this nightly with my son (7) and daughter (4) it’s such a great way to relax and connect. The personalized meditations are unique and special. Both kids lit up when they heard Ryan say their name. The topics seem so relevant to the big feelings kids have every day. And they’re super relaxing for me too!

Cool Koala was the perfect fit for our bedtime routine. My 7 year old would get wound up at bedtime unloading all the struggles of his day but with Cool Koala the meditations help him to let go and relax. Since using the app he falls asleep faster and has better sleep translating to better days. I see him integrating the coping techniques outside of using the app and he’s able to navigate through situations that in the past would have thrown off the whole day. Thank you Ryan for sharing your talents with us.

What I love most about this app is that it gets straight to what you downloaded it for: the experience. It does a great job of serving up the content and keeping all the nuts and bolts of menus and granular options out of your way. I always know it will be immediately playing within seconds of opening it, which is worth more than it sounds like when dealing with a group of children finding their various paths into their separate serene settings. Thanks Cool Koala!
