There is a lot to keep us up at night these days but the people at Hush. are serious about finding ways for Canadians to get a better night sleep. Hush. is a bedding and mattress brand based here in Canada.
They study the ways and means that people can get a better night’s sleep. One that I have often wondered about is a weighted blanket. According to Hush. there are eight sleep and health benefits of a weighted blanket including pain relief and reducing seizures.
Here are another two benefits of a weighted blanket from Hush:
“Relieves Anxiety Symptoms
Anxiety is one of the many common mental health disorders – in fact, approximately 275 million people around the world suffer from anxiety. Some of the symptoms including a fast heart rate or quick breathing can be relieved with a weighted blanked as it puts the autonomic nervous system into rest mode and promotes feelings of relaxation.
Promotes Deep Sleep
In Canada, 25% of adults across the nation claim they have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep majority of the time. However, weighted blankets can combat the struggles of insufficient sleep similarly to the way they help anxiety, by calming the heart rate to ensure you fall into a deep sleep. Plus, they use deep pressure stimulation which increases levels of melatonin, known as the sleep hormone.”
