Stand it is true that the importance of sleep is now recognized by many studies, it is equally true that we often do not dedicate the right attention to our body, including that of sleeping well, in the right way and for the right time. Sleeping well produces many benefits for mental and physical health.
When you rest well, you are calmer, your mood and patience increase, your relationships with others and with yourself improve. And again, we eat more regularly, work better and have a more positive perception of life. In addition to the fact that from an exclusively physical point of view, you have the right energy and strength to face the day.
The sleep of the Italians
A research conducted by Emma-Sleep Company has found some curious data on the sleep of Italians, increasingly tired and dissatisfied with the quality of their rest. Only 44.8% said they were able to sleep between 7 and 8 hours a night. 69% of those interviewed declare that they are a light sleeper, with continuous awakenings during the night. Although there are several techniques to facilitate sleep, 42.6% do not have a ritual to fall asleep faster and naturally.
Aware of the importance of sleep, there are methods that are obviously put into practice: reading a book or a magazine (28%). Listening to music playlists and made specifically for sleep (12%). Listening to podcasts and audiobooks (10.6%). While only 6.6% say they use the ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response) method with video/audio before sleeping.
To sleep better, furnish the bedroom harmoniously
We probably don’t realize it, but where we sleep is of the utmost importance. In fact, it is essential to look for a relaxing environment in the bedroom. Here are some tips to follow:
Chromotherapy
There are different color palettes that can relax. Blue, with its nuances, is universally recognized as calming. Green, capable of reconnecting us to nature, is a perfect color for meditation. In general, neutral colors of white and beige are always recommended. For those wishing to use a vanilla tint, it is possible to combine it with the earthy red and burnt orange, or the pale pink of some furnishing objects: colors with a very strong density, which will thus appear light and attenuated.
Bedroom fabrics

Plants in the bedroom yes or no?
We need to dispel the false myth that plants in the bedroom shouldn’t be kept. It’s not just a matter of decor, but also a real benefit for our health since they induce sleep and relieve stress accumulated during the day. Among those recommended to create a small oasis of relaxation there are theAloe Vera, which produces oxygen during the night. There Sansevieriawhich improves air quality. There Lavenderwhich with its intense scent has a calming and relaxing power.
The correct lighting
The bedroom should never be too bright. If outside light filters through the windows in the morning, sleep could be disturbed. We must therefore try to resort to the right protections, such as blackout curtains and eye masks. Furthermore, in the evening it is better to prefer soft indirect and dimmable lights.
Choose your bed linen carefully
I’ll make Prestige Pink Poplin Pajamas
There are those who simply love to sleep in underwear and a t-shirt and those who would never give up pajamas. Whatever the choice, the important thing is to be comfortable. If you opt for the latter, it is better to prefer soft and breathable models to keep the skin dry. Sleeping without underwear on the other hand would help not only to find the right body temperature, but also to have a better awareness of one’s body and therefore find the right harmony.
To order
Finally, among the things that cannot be missing in the bedroom, one is intangible: it is theorder. A tidy bedroom promotes peace and sleep. So space for all the elements that help maintain it, from shelves to wardrobes, from hangers to bedside tables: sleep will only benefit from it.
