How Sleep (Or Lack Thereof) Creates Business

Posted April 19th, 2018 in Hastens, Luxury Beds, Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

How Sleep Creates BusinessAt a time when our ability to get an adequate amount of sleep is constantly threatened by stress, our devices, or ailments caused by lack of sleep, it should come as no surprise that there is actually an industry born out of this problem.

First and foremost is the mattress business, no doubt the pioneer of the sleep industry, which has become increasingly similar to tech startups with the introduction of “smart” mattresses. Our need for sleep spurs many different and unique approaches to remedy the issue. These channels range from sleep-related apps, white noise machines, custom pillows, books, and weighted blankets. There is even a niche market for “spooning robots”, bean-shaped pillows that mimic the breathing of humans to stimulate melatonin and induce relaxation. According to studies and reports, the sleep business is estimated to be valued between $30 to 40 billion and it is growing at a yearly rate of 8% with no signs of slowing down.

Uncommon Factors Affecting Your Sleep

Posted April 19th, 2018 in From Our Sleep Experts, Hastens, Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

zzzzEven though most of us never get enough of it, sleep is essential for our physical and mental well-being. In fact, not getting enough sleep may lead to sleep disorders like insomnia and it can also cause serious issues such as depression and anxiety. While most of us know that a comfortable, premium mattress, a shower, and not consuming caffeine before bedtime can help with getting some rest, there are other factors that may also contribute to sleepless nights.

According to an article on New Haven Register, age may also play a role in not sleeping enough. Recent studies suggest that as a person ages, the part of the brain that assists with regulating sleep begins to decay, which means a person may experience fewer moments of REM sleep, which is considered to be the deepest sleep state.

There is no such thing as being able to “catch up” on sleep during the weekend by sleeping longer hours. Sleeping in on a Saturday will only throw off your sleep schedule, making it harder for the body to adjust to a regular sleep cycle.

Do you sleep with your windows and doors closed? It makes sense to keep your home cool and free of outside noise. However, that same New Haven Register article suggests that sleeping with open windows or doors may help with reducing carbon dioxide levels, resulting in potentially better sleep.

Stop Believing These Sleep Myths

Posted April 12th, 2018 in Hastens, Luxury Beds, Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

sleepyStrangerYour sleep quality will affect virtually every part of your life in some way, whether it’s your health, your productivity at work, or your mood. Not getting a good night’s sleep isn’t just feeling tired the following day; you may notice you can’t focus properly and you might not make the wisest decisions. These are proven side effects of not sleeping well, but there are also myths that many people seem to believe.

Being functional at work means you’re sleeping well. If you chronically sleep poorly, your body will adapt to that feeling of tiredness, tricking you into thinking that’s just the way you should feel. Your body may not feel tired, but your brain might be sleep deprived and it will let you know this by affecting your ability to remember things or making you irritable when dealing with co-workers.

You need eight hours of sleep. No, you don’t necessarily eight hours. While it’s considered the magic number, there are people that can wake up feeling rested and alert on seven hours of sleep. A tiny population can also make do with five, but that’s rare. Keep in mind your mattress and its quality will also factor heavily into those hours.

You can “catch up” or make up for sleep. Only getting six hours of sleep on weekdays and then sleeping in for nine or ten on Saturday isn’t doing anything for you. Instead, try and get into the habit of waking up at the same time each day, even weekends.

Sleeping Positions Are the New Personality Tests

Posted April 9th, 2018 in Hastens, Luxury Beds, Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

fakeSleeperAre you among the people active on social media who just love to take those surveys that reveal details about your personality? Well, you may be somewhat surprised to learn that what you do unconsciously can also tell a lot about you. What exactly do we mean by that? The position you sleep in may be just as revealing as one of those personality tests, according to an article on the ABC 13 Eyewitness News website.

Do you find yourself worrying a lot? If so, you may be one of the numerous people who sleep on their side in a fetal position. For those that sleep on their stomach, it may indicate that you’re a “go with the flow” kind of person when it comes to your life and perhaps have little control over what course it takes.

If you sleep on your back with your arms by your side, you could be one of those stubborn, bossy people that are steadfastly set in their ways. On the flip side, back sleepers that raise their arms over their head are probably great listeners that are always up for helping those in need.

Regardless of what position you sleep in, we think you’re awesome and we think you should enjoy sleeping in your favorite position in a supremely comfortable mattress. Who knows? You may wake up feeling a little less bossy or with fewer worries.

You May Be More Sleep Deprived Than You Think

Posted April 5th, 2018 in Luxury Beds, Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

ugonDieAccording to a ScienceDaily article revealing not entirely surprising results, recent studies show that sleep deficiency caused by disorders such as insomnia or sleep apnea are strongly associated with motor vehicles crashes, no matter how alert a person may be.

While we all know that excessive sleepiness will result in delayed reactions, just how impaired or sleepy a person may be plateaus if the person is chronically sleep-deprived. As a result, a person may not know just how sleep deprived or impaired they are, which can lead to a high risk when navigating the roadways.

The Secret is out on Sleeping

Posted March 21st, 2018 in Hastens, Luxury Beds, Mattress Brands by coreyconsulting

The Secret is out on Sleeping
Scientists have finally found the key secret to attaining a good night’s sleep, and you may be surprised to learn that it’s not so much about what you have done before turning in, but what you will do in the morning. In a study that was the first of its kind, U.S. scientists determined that having a purpose for the next day results in fewer interruptions in sleep as well as improved quality of rest.

“Helping people cultivate a purpose in life could be an effective drug-free strategy to improve sleep quality, particularly for a population that is facing more insomnia,” said Jason Ong, an associate professor of neurology at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. Another factor is reducing light emitting from our smartphones, computers, and other devices can delay or inhibit the release of melatonin, the rest hormone needed to fall asleep.
