The Importance of an Extra Hour of Sleep

Posted November 13th, 2018 in Luxury Beds, Mattress Brands, Top Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

It’s safe to say the majority of Americans do not get the recommended minimum of seven hours of sleep a day. Per the American Sleep Apnea foundation, more than half a billion Americans suffer from a sleep disorder while as much as thirty million people experience intermittent sleep. One extra hour of sleep can make a world of difference, and here is a pair of reasons why you should try and get more.

Heart health. Research has shown that those with short sleep increased their risk of coronary heart disease or stroke by just over ten percent compared to those that slept at least six to eight hours. It should be noted that oversleeping is also not a good idea.

Depression and mental health. Those who suffer from a sleep disorder such as insomnia showed a tenfold risk of becoming depressed. Though research is still ongoing, there is also a possibility that not getting enough REM sleep (the deepest sleep state) or poor sleep quality may result in a higher risk of developing dementia.

These two reasons are among the many why you should try and make an effort to get in an extra hour of sleep each night. If it’s the mattress that’s causing your sleep issues, names like Hästens and Vispring are here to save the day. Countless people have upgraded their sleep with these mattresses that are known for helping you fall asleep quickly and stay asleep.

Science Reveals Yet Another Side Effect of Sleep Deprivation

Posted November 8th, 2018 in Carpe Diem, Mattress Brands, Top Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

We all know that a good night’s sleep keeps the body and mind in good shape and may prevent lots of illnesses. In case you needed yet another reason to get to bed on time, a recent study suggests that sleeping less than six hours a night will result in another body ailment: dehydration.

Sure enough, researchers discovered that people who slept less than six hours a night showed greater odds of being hydrated, as much as 59 percent compared to those that regularly slept eight hours. The researchers believe this may be due to a hormone in the body called vasopressin which the body regularly releases throughout the day to keep fluid levels manageable. The hormone is released on a quicker basis and later on during the sleep cycle. Because it makes sure that the body doesn’t lose excess water during sleep, vasopressin is unable to properly do its job, resulting in dehydration.

One of the numerous reasons why people don’t get enough sleep or suffer from insomnia is due to having an uncomfortable mattress. With a Vispring or Hastens mattress, there is practically no such thing as tossing and turning as these beds are world-renowned for their optimum comfort and ability to help people fall asleep in a few minutes versus hours. Come to Brickell Mattress and try one today!

Sleeping Techniques

Posted October 29th, 2018 in Top Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

Having a good night’s rest is important for physical and mental health. Sleep deprivation can affect your energy, productivity, emotions, and even your weight. Changing a few daytime routines and bedtime habits can improve your performance while you’re awake.

 

To have quality sleep, try getting in sync with your body’s natural sleep-wake cycle by establishing a time to sleep and wake up at the same time every day of the week. Try avoiding sleeping in on weekends because if your weekend/weekday sleep schedules differ, then you’re more likely to be tired.

 

Controlling your exposure to light may also influence the quality of your sleep. Your mind releases melatonin when it’s dark, which makes you sleepy. The melatonin is less when there is light, which causes you to be more alert. At night avoid phones, tablets, computers, or TVs, especially an hour or two before going to sleep.The bright lights from these devices suppress melatonin, making it harder to rest. The room you sleep in should be dark to help you get a good night’s rest.

 

Exercising also helps with sleeping better at night because it speeds up metabolism, elevates body temperature, and stimulates hormones like cortisol. Try not to exercise too close to your bedtime as it may interfere with your sleep.

Eating may also affect how you sleep. Not eating large meals before going to bed helps your body have less stomach problems, preventing you from going to the restroom late at night. Consuming caffeine and nicotine may cause sleeping problems as much as twelve hours after consuming them, and alcohol before bed doesn’t help either.

 

Improving your sleeping environment makes a difference to your quality of sleep. Keeping the noise down, the room cool, your bed comfortable, and using your bed solely for its intended purposes will help you sleep better.

Too Much Sleep Isn’t Good for You Either

Posted October 22nd, 2018 in Hastens, Luxury Beds, Mattress Brands, Top Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

Here’s some news that may not be all that surprising. Researchers have found that sleeping too much is nearly as bad as not sleeping enough, negatively affecting cognitive abilities and a person’s health. Last year, the University of Western Ontario conducted a massive sleep study involving more than 40,000 people around the world to determine how a lack of or too much sleep affects them.

After examining data involving over 100,000 nights of sleep, researchers discovered that indeed, a minimum of seven hours each night is ideal for the best sleep, optimum brain function, and a healthy body. On the other hand, the ones who slept more than seven or eight hours experienced the same impairments as those that were only getting six hours of sleep or fewer. One could argue that this also serves as a reminder that there is no such thing as being able to “make up” on sleep. Sleeping only six hours during the week and then trying to make up for it during the weekend by sleeping eight or more may not be making much of a difference.

One way you can easily prevent oversleeping is by tossing and turning less and falling asleep right away. With a Hästens or Vispring mattress, that goal is much easier to accomplish. Thanks to their distinct, intricate design, these beds conform to the shape of the body and provide optimum back support, adjusting accordingly so there is no soreness or moving around trying to find a comfortable position to sleep in. There is a reason why these beds have earned worldwide praise, why not improve your sleep today by trying one of these mattresses?

Your Sleepwear May Help with Insomnia

Posted October 17th, 2018 in Luxury Beds, Mattress Brands, Top Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

For the millions of people that deal with sleep disorders like insomnia on a daily basis, there is always the search for a cure to sleep better at night. Could this cure be the clothing you wear to bed? If recent research is any indication, it is a possibility.

Australian scientists conducted studies on young and older sleepers to determine whether wearing wool material to bed could prove an effective way to combat insomnia. One group of participants in their 20s did, in fact, manage to fall asleep about four minutes faster while wearing pajamas made of wool material versus the customary cotton. This group also managed to sleep for an extra seven minutes each night.

The wool material proved to be even more effective with adults between the ages of 65 to 70. This group managed to fall asleep within twelve minutes while wearing wool material versus 20+ minutes for those wearing cotton or polyester material.

As to why wool works so effectively, it may have something to do with its ability to regulate body temperature, allowing a person to stay asleep longer more comfortably.

Combine comfortable sleepwear with some of the world’s most comfortable mattresses by Hästens and Vispring and your insomnia may indeed become a thing of the past. If you need guidance on finding the right mattress to cozy into in your wool PJs, we’re here to help.

Luxury Magazine Recommends Hastens

Posted October 2nd, 2018 in Mattress Brands, Top Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

The Swedish manufacturer Hästens and its beds are as notable for their unparalleled comfort as they are for being something of an exquisitely designed, meticulously handcrafted fashion statement. Being frequently mentioned in numerous high-end publications, Hästens is a perfect fusion of style backed up by decades of proven substance.

Earlier this year, the publication appropriately titled Luxury Magazine published its Spring 2018 issue which featured a section with items for the home. Among the categories was “Home Remedies” which included recommended beds for getting more sleep. Sure enough, Hästens made an appearance, in this case, its 2000T mattress which was re-imagined as the Appaloosa and Marwari to much acclaim by the firm of Bernadotte & Kylberg.

The brief article titled “Why buy a $150,000 mattress in Sweden?” takes a quick look at the process that goes into creating the Hästens Vividus mattress. Readers can get an idea of what the Hästens Dream Factory is like and the astute attention paid to architecture, which reinforces the meticulous care and craftsmanship that goes into the creation of the widely acclaimed mattresses.

Perhaps most refreshingly, the Departures article reinforces how Hästens continues to focus on using the expertise of highly qualified artisans to create its mattresses by hand. Visitors who take a tour of the factory will quickly notice there is no such thing as a robotic machine doing what Hästens has continued to fine-tune and perfect for years.
