The Top Products To Help Fight Insomnia

Written By Lewis Robinson / Reviewed By Ray Spotts

If you live with chronic insomnia, you know the feeling of the never-ending night. Every passing hour can feel like a lifetime; however, at the same time, the night also seems just to slip away. Before you realize it, your alarm is going off, and it is time to start another day.

Getting a good night’s rest is invaluable. Finding the right sleeping solution is a must. Keep reading for some products that will help you get the good night’s rest you want and deserve.  

Weighted Blanket

Using a weighted blanket is a great way to help ease the anxiety that may be causing you to stay awake at night. A weighted blanket can help create a calming effect by putting constant pressure on your body. This will help to release serotonin and calm your nervous system.

Some studies had proven that people who have insomnia resulting from ADHD, anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder began getting better sleep when they used a weighted blanket.

Get the Right Mattress

While having a bad or old mattress may not be the entire reason you have insomnia, having an unsupportive or uncomfortable mattress plays a huge role in poor sleep.

Older mattresses are also an issue. According to one study, replacing an older mattress - one that is more than seven years old - will help to improve your overall sleep quality. If you are ready to purchase a new mattress, then try to choose a medium-firm one. This type of mattress is comfortable for most people and has been proven to help reduce cases of back pain.

The Right Pillow

While you may have heard otherwise, pillows are not a one-size-fits-all product. In fact, many pillows can help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. According to one study, using a quality orthopedic pillow or one that offers proper support for the curve of your spine is recommended. In fact, this is more beneficial than using a memory foam or feather pillow. It can also help to improve your sleep quality.

The Right Sheets

Did you know that if you get too hot at night, it can impact your sleep? Getting the right sheets is a must to help you stay at a more comfortable temperature for sleeping. Finding sheets made of cotton, which is well-known for breathability, is highly recommended. These sheets are also crisp and lightweight.

Reduce Light Exposure

When it comes to not getting good sleep, light is a top offender. From excessive screen time to too much light in your home, all this excess light causes your brain to think that you should still be awake. Also, artificial light may hurt your body and cause your circadian rhythm to cause a sleep-wake disorder, which may alter your internal clock and result in insomnia.

A great way to get better sleep is by limiting the amount of light you are exposed to. Putting your phone up and turning your television off can help with this.

Use a Sleep Mask

A sleep mask is a popular nighttime accessory. There’s a good reason for this. A quality sleep mask will block out the light that may keep you from going to sleep or causing you to wake up too soon in the morning.

Several studies have shown that wearing earplugs and sleep masks will help improve the overall sleep quality of ICU patients who are unable to sleep because of exposure to noise and light. Take some time to find a quality option to feel confident that you will achieve the desired benefits.

Getting a Good Night’s Rest

When it comes to getting a good night’s rest, there are more than a few factors that may be impacting your sleep. In some cases, having the right products will pay off and help you sleep better and stay asleep longer. Getting better sleep is going to help you be healthier and happier, as well.
