1. A method for creating a personalized audio experience to promote sleep health, comprising:
determining a distribution of user-specific asleep values for a physiological feature when a user is determined to be asleep;
determining a distribution of user-specific awake values for the physiological feature when the user is determined to be awake;
determining the user is asleep when a measured value of the physiological feature extracted from a real-time physiological signal is in the distribution of user-specific asleep values;
determining the user is awake when a measured value of the physiological feature extracted from the real-time physiological signal is in the distribution of user-specific awake values;
determining the user has been awake for a threshold amount of time; and
altering an audio experience based on determining the user is asleep or awake via the measured value of the physiological feature being in the distribution of user-specific awake values or the user-specific asleep values, wherein altering the audio experience comprises instructing the user to stand up, via at least one of audio, video, or haptic output, when the user is determined to be awake for the threshold amount of time.
