Everyone knows the adverse effects of a bad night’s sleep. Starting the workday feeling sleep-deprived and energy-deficient is a surefire way to reduce productivity at the office and stem enthusiasm for everyday rituals. Ensuring that you awaken refreshed and bright-eyed means taking stock of your current sleeping situation, and exploring ways to make the hours you spend in bed more comfortable and conducive to rest.
Here, we’ve rounded up some accessibly-priced items that may inspire you to rethink your approach to sleep. After all, if it’s true that the average person spends more than 25 years of their life sleeping, few things in life could possibly be more important than aiming for an optimal night’s sleep.
Adequate rest, we know, can dramatically change the complexion of a day, and lead to richer, more meaningful engagement with the world. But proper rest can only begin and end with proper sleep. Paying closer attention to poor sleeping habits and patterns is the key to understanding how and why optimal sleep is more often the exception than the rule.
The products listed above are by no means the only ways of improving and enhancing the sleeping experience; they only illustrate that a few small changes can yield a more restful night—and a brighter day.
