5 items you need for a great night’s sleep

Sleep is a very important, and often overlooked, part of our lives. When we sleep deeply it gives our body a chance to repair itself from the rigors of carrying us through each day, and gives our busy minds a break from the worries and problems we often struggle with during our waking hours. There are many factors, however, that can prevent us from getting the rest we need – environment plays a huge role in how easy it is to fall and stay asleep. By making a few small changes to your space with these products, you can transform a less than optimal sleeping space into a relaxing haven you can’t wait to curl up in.

Stress can be a huge contributor to not sleeping well. One way to eliminate at least one source of stress is to take precautions that can help protect you and your family while you sleep. This smoke and carbon monoxide alarm can provide you peace of mind, and will let you rest easy knowing that you have an alarm in place in case of a fire or gas leak.

Depending on where you live, your daily routine, and the direction your bedroom windows face, you might struggle with the sun waking you up well before your alarm clock goes off. This can be an issue when you need your sleep to feel rested for the day ahead. These blackout curtains can fully shut out the sunlight, keeping your room dark and letting you sleep for as long as you need.
One important aspect to getting a good night’s sleep is giving yourself time to wind down before bed in an environment conducive to rest. These LED lights allow you to control the brightness and hue of the light in your bedroom, letting you dim the lights as you get closer to bedtime, and even make the light a relaxing color.
If you have roommates, children, or even noisy neighbors, it can be difficult to get some peace and quiet when it comes time to go to sleep. These noise canceling headphones will block out the sounds around you and ensure you’re able to enjoy whatever relaxing music you choose, or even no music at all.
If your schedule means that you keep unconventional hours, or you live in a place that gets a lot of sunlight for part of the year, it’s possible you’ve had your sleep disrupted by a sunny day. These thermal blackout curtains can prevent the sun from waking you up, and because they’re insulated, they can save you money by lowering your heating bill during the colder months.

It can often be hard to get a good night’s sleep but with these items you can sleep sounder, feel more rested, and need to hit the snooze button less in the morning. A lack of sleep – or even just good quality sleep – can cause grogginess, listlessness, and leave you feeling like you’re in a fog. These products cause small changes that work wonders – when you control the lighting and noise levels and feel confident in your smoke alarm, you’ll find that getting a great night’s rest is easier than it used to be.

Indulging in favorite exercise routines—swimming, running, yoga, Pilates—is the optimal way to ensure that staying active and keeping fit remains a joy, not a chore. Still, extending the boundaries of your exercise comfort zone by engaging in activities that may not come naturally can provide its own benefits to both body and mind.

An aversion to firearms, for instance, shouldn't be an obstacle to a friendly game of 'toy' gun shooting and improved head-eye coordination. A secret desire to sing, but no formal voice training, shouldn't prevent a splurge on a professional-grade microphone. The products we've selected, below, illustrate that trying something new doesn't have to be an unrealistic goal or expensive commitment; it only requires the desire to push against accepted parameters—and, ultimately, deepen the lived experience.
