About Us

We are forever inspired by the simplicity and perfection of nature. 

Born out of necessity, our founder, Emily Byrne, created Rise Centered after sampling three sunrise alarm clocks on the market. She was disappointed to find that they often required an app to function, were made of plastic or lacked a visually appealing design. Emily sought to create a design-focused, functional sunrise alarm clock made from organic materials, that didn’t require a phone (or additional payments) to use. 

And so, our natural Sunrise Alarm Clock was born. Thoughtfully designed with elegance and eco-consciousness in mind, to improve your sleep quality, nurture mental clarity, and facilitate a return to nature’s simplicity – because it's within the quiet confines of nature that we feel inspired to deepen our connection to ourselves, embrace a simpler way of life, and allow for meaningful disconnection from technology. 

We prioritize sustainability in everything we do.

From the materials we choose to the impact our products have on the environment. We are here to create a more mindful world where people embrace intentional living and wake up each day feeling centered and inspired, while living in harmony with the Earth.

Wellness isn’t about discipline, it’s about creating systems that make intentional living easier. 

Your wellbeing matters. By simulating the sunrise and its benefits, and allowing you to keep your devices out of the bedroom, our Sunrise Alarm Clock offers not just a tranquil morning and refreshing start, but a pathway to rediscovering the essence of a balanced, authentic life without distraction. 

Whether it’s in our natural materials, or supporting you to get better sleep and spend more time offline, our goal is to help you harmonize with the rhythms of nature and the rhythms of your life, to free up space and reconnect with what makes you, you. 

Awaken gently, embrace serenity, and embark on a journey of self-discovery, one peaceful morning at a time.
