Bedding for your Boudoir - The Importance of Sleep
It's important not to underestimate the power of a good night's sleep. And spending a little time thinking about relaxing bedding and décor for you room can make a big difference. Considering that we spend on average eight hours in every 24 lying in our beds, it's worth ensuring our bedding is as comfortable, luxurious and aesthetic as possible.
Luxury Bedding - Satin Sheets, Egyptian Cotton
Bedrooms are meant to be gentle, relaxed places that help us get a good night's sleep. And so choosing neutral and relaxing colours for our bedding is a good starting point. If you want an injection of colour, a neutral base and duvet cover can be jazzed up easily with new throws and cushions to create different moods as the seasons roll by. During the winter months, it's nice to opt for cosy colours and warm bedding. During the summer, light bedding such as satin sheets or Egyptian cotton can help create an airier feel to a room as well as a more comfortable sleeping experience.
Bedding Accessories Add Style
Bedding accessories can help when it comes to comfort, cleanliness and style. If you have asthma or allergies, it's worth considering investing in bedding accessories such as mattress or pillow protectors. Easy care cotton sheets are practical if you need to regularly wash sheets at high temperatures because of dust mite allergies.
Why is bedding and sleep important?
Getting comfortable bedding to suit your needs is crucial so you're not tossing and turning at night. A good night's sleep is central to our well being on every level. Lack of sleep leaves us feeling stressed, run down and even more prone to depression. Sleep deprivation can lead to us living a more sedentary life as we lose the get up and go to exercise or push ourselves in our careers and home life. And lack of sleep also increases our risk of accidents, with research from the University of New South Wales in Australia saying those who sleep less than six hours a night are at very serious risk of a road accident. It's estimated two out of three road crashes are a result of sleep deprivation in America. Bedding then should be inviting with bedrooms being peaceful, calm places that offer a sense of refuge. You should get rid of electronic devices and distractions from your bedroom - including TVs and mobile phones and invest in quality bedding that inspires a sense of relaxation. Make sure your bedding and room are tidy and clean so they inspire a sense of order and calm.
