Approximately two out of three college students report experiencing suboptimal sleep quality. The aim of this study was to examine the feasibility of a self-administered hypnosis intervention to improve sleep in college students. Twenty-two college students who self-reported poor sleep quality were enrolled in a 4-week study comprising 1 baseline week and a 3-week self-administered hypnosis intervention. Sleep onset latency and sleep efficiency as measured by wrist actigraphy were significantly improved. The mean average nightly sleep duration during the baseline week was 398.88 minutes ( SD  = 56.44), which increased to a mean of 413.88 minutes ( SD  = 57.80) during the 3rd week of intervention. However, the results show that there was no statistically significant difference between weeks on objective nightly sleep duration, 95% CI [−11.13, 41.13],  t (15) = 1.224,  p  = .240. Also, results showed that there was no significant difference between weeks on self-reported nightly sleep duration,  F (3, 57) = 2.155,  p  = .103. Twenty participants (91%) completed the study intervention and adherence to daily self-hypnosis practice with an audio recording was high. Zero study-related adverse events were reported, and participants perceived the intervention as easy to use and helpful for improving sleep. These results provide evidence for the feasibility and safety of a self-administered hypnosis intervention to improve sleep in college students. A larger randomized clinical trial is warranted to determine efficacy.
