We Tried Meghan Markle's Controversial NuCalm Patch & We're Royally Conflicted

Posted by Mittie Cheatwood on Monday, May 6, 2024

Did the process of using NuCalm result in calmness? Yes. Is this because of the technology behind the processing discs? That's tough to say. After the session, life definitely felt calmer. Still, the remaining 24 hours of wearing the disc didn't feel different from your average Sunday. It was easy to forget about the disc, and not even the placebo effect convinced the gullible mind that it had any effect. Make no mistake, the day spent wearing the NuCalm biosignal processing discs was calm and relaxed, but it was a rare Sunday with 30 minutes taken out with distractions entirely set aside. 

It's easy to wonder whether taking a break from your day to close your eyes and listen to some calming music — selections from the "Interstellar" soundtrack, perhaps? — could be an easy (and cheaper!) way to feel calmer. It's unclear whether NuCalm's power went any further than just inviting us to take that time out of our day, but of course, it's possible that the myriad frequencies were keeping panic at bay that would have otherwise swooped in. 

Is this enough of a possibility to warrant the price of the processing discs and the app subscription? Probably not, but it's entirely up to personal preference. If you're looking to try NuCalm, signing up for the free trial and listening to a session is your best bet before investing in the biosignal processing discs. Still, if you, like Meghan Markle, find yourself in the middle of a royal family feud anytime soon, they may indeed be worth a shot.
