Somna I'm Tired User Guide

When you are ready for bed, just say: Alexa, I’m Tired.

I’m Tired is the fuller bedtime member of the Somna family. Presets are the easiest way to use it, replay is available when you want the same script again, and Partner Mode can keep the opening gentler for someone nearby.

Start here

If you are new, keep it simple:

  1. Say: Alexa, ask I’m Tired to browse presets.
  2. Move through the options with next preset or previous preset.
  3. When one feels right, say: use this preset.
  4. If someone is nearby, turn on Partner Mode.
  5. At bedtime, say: Alexa, I’m tired.

If you are not sure where to start, begin with safe standard.

At bedtime

When you are ready for sleep, say:

Alexa, I’m Tired (if the response is unexpected, go to All Commands for additional options.)

Somna uses your saved preset or settings automatically. There is no menu and nothing to choose in the moment.

Presets

Presets are the main way to use I’m Tired. They combine a focus and a length, so you can choose the feel of the bedtime script without managing separate settings.

Quiet Short

A brief version for quieting the mind without adding much to think about.

Uses: quiet · short · default

Alexa, ask I’m Tired to switch to preset quiet short

Quiet Standard

A fuller quieting script for thoughts that are still moving.

Uses: quiet · standard · default

Alexa, ask I’m Tired to switch to preset quiet standard

Safe Standard

A steady bedtime default focused on safety, permission, and letting go.

Uses: safe · standard · default

Alexa, ask I’m Tired to switch to preset safe standard

Breath Extended

A longer breath-and-drift version for settling gradually.

Uses: breath · extended · default

Alexa, ask I’m Tired to switch to preset breath extended

Sinking Short

A short, body-heavy version for letting the bed do the holding.

Uses: sinking · short · default

Alexa, ask I’m Tired to switch to preset sinking short

Progressive Standard

A body-relaxation version that moves gently through the body.

Uses: progressive · standard · default

Alexa, ask I’m Tired to switch to preset progressive standard

Browse presets

You do not need to remember every preset name. You can browse them.

Alexa, ask I’m Tired to browse presets Alexa, ask I’m Tired for the next preset Alexa, ask I’m Tired for the previous preset

When the current preset feels right, say:

Alexa, ask I’m Tired to use this preset

Or choose one directly:

Alexa, ask I’m Tired to switch to preset safe standard

Replay

If you want the same bedtime script again, use replay language.

Alexa, ask I’m Tired to play again Alexa, ask I’m Tired to replay last Alexa, ask I’m Tired to repeat

Play again uses your current saved preset or settings. Replay last repeats the last response when available.

Partner Mode

If someone is nearby, Partner Mode adds a very short opening before the main script so the experience feels gentler in a shared bed.

It does not change the main preset. It only adds a brief preface before the bedtime script begins.

Alexa, ask I’m Tired to turn on Partner Mode Alexa, ask I’m Tired to turn off Partner Mode Alexa, ask I’m Tired is Partner Mode on

Check your settings

If you want to hear what is currently selected, say:

Alexa, ask I’m Tired what are my current settings

If you want to hear your current preset, say:

Alexa, ask I’m Tired what preset am I using

Most people can stay with presets. Settings are there only if you want them.

Length

Length changes how much is said.

Alexa, ask I’m Tired what is my length Alexa, ask I’m Tired to set length to standard

Style

I’m Tired currently uses the default bedtime style.

Alexa, ask I’m Tired what is my style Alexa, ask I’m Tired to set style to default

Focus

Focus changes the kind of bedtime support you hear.

Alexa, ask I’m Tired what is my focus Alexa, ask I’m Tired to set focus to quiet

I’m Tired uses the same Somna family command style as the other “I’m ...” skills: browse presets, use this preset, choose a preset directly, play again, replay last, turn on Partner Mode, or check settings.

FYI: You can also change Alexa’s voice in your device settings by saying, "Alexa, change your voice."
