Have you ever wondered what it takes to have a really good night’s sleep? We’ve all heard the doctor recommendations. Get enough exercise, take your vitamins and eat a balanced and healthy diet. Lay off the caffeine at night and stop eating a few hours before your head hits the pillow. All great advice, right? But what about when you’re actually in the bed, ready to fall asleep and you can’t seem to settle down? Here are some of my favorite products to help me drift off to dreamland!
Diffuser
Diffusers might be THE product of the decade. Along with oils, diffusers are a must have item in your “dream worthy” room and I can see why! Diffusers are one of the best ways to use essential oils and can help you unwind after a long day. Keeping one next to your bed with the right blends of oils can help you skip counting sheep and shut down all those thoughts in your head. Stylish diffusers like this one are perfect for interior design lovers like myself who cringe at the sight of unwelcoming items on the nightstand.
Pilgrim diffusers not only take care of the stylish problem but add to the world of diffusing by offering a mix of essential oils that zone in on your sleeping patterns. This starter packed called REST helps with insomnia and fatigue.
This Zoe diffuser is multifunctional, low maintenance and elegant! Plus is comes with a remote that helps control the air flow, light setting and the length of diffusing.
Air Filter
There is nothing that has changed my sleeping habits more than plugging in the Blue Air purifier into our bedroom. I have allergies all year long and also suffer from asthma triggers. I alway felt that my symptoms would get worse at night even after taking allergy medicine recommended by my doc. After running the Blue Pure 211+ air purifier for just a few days I could immediately feel a difference in the air quality in our bedroom. The air felt fresher and the room didn’t feel as stuffy!
But the best part is I can really feel a difference when I wake up in the morning. I’m not stuffy or headed to the bathroom to blow my nose! I’m not waking up in the middle of the night or breathing through my mouth either! It makes a world of difference. So I’m a big believer! With cold & flu season coming up soon, I’m so excited to see if this helps ease any of those symptoms as as well! Oh and lets not forget. It’s stylish. That’s important people! It comes with a sleeve in your choice of color so it blends in nicely with the room!
Wake-Up Light
The Philips Wake-Up Light needs to be in everyone’s bedroom. Several independent studies have shown that this wake-up light “improves the quality of waking up, improves moods and makes you feel more refreshed in the morning.”
How you wake up is just as important as how you fall asleep! With the wake up light next to your bed, the light stimulates a sunrise as you slowly wake from your slumber in the morning. The light gradually goes from a soft red, to orange and finally a bright yellow light until you are awake. You can increase or decrease the light depending on how sensitive you are to light. You might need a BRIGHT light while others only need a little light to wake them up in the morning.
Along with that you can wake up to 5 different zen sounds as your alarm goes off! If you aren’t ready to get up just yet, just tap anywhere on the light and snooze away!
Are you ready for a good night’s sleep? I’m sure you will be after trying some of these products out! Let us know what you think!
