Getting a good night’s sleep will CHANGE YOUR LIFE. 😊 Everyone in the world wants a good night sleep there is zero question. So why is it so hard to wake up feeling rested OR be able to fall asleep in the first place? Like me, everyone is super busy and wants to lay down and fall asleep fast.
I’ve been a pretty good sleeper all my life until I started having neck and upper back trouble from previous injuries. Chiropractic work and stretching can only go so far and waking up in agony wasn’t going to cut it.
Fortunately for me I stayed at a very nice hotel with the highest grade amenities AND BEDS! I was hooked and astounded how much sleeping on the right mattress gave my body the support and comfort needed to not wake up feeling awful.

How To Create The PERFECT BED That Will Put You To Sleep Starting With The Best Mattress!
Mattresses have come a long way and while they can be the priciest part of a bed they are the most important element of a great night’s sleep. It is wise to choose a mattress that will keep your spine aligned and if you’re like me you want your mattress to last. Investing in a great mattress is investing in yourself.
I have two Lull mattresses. After long months of research, reading reviews, warranties etc. Lull was hands down the BEST choice in terms of new technology and comfort. 3 layers of indestructible memory foam and has cooling and therapeutic properties. The bed is so soft and makes zero noise under your body and head. Bonus too! The bed has a no disturb quality about it so whenever your partner moves around, you never know.
If the Lull’s price is too much for the pocket book the Nectar Premier Copper 14" Queen Mattress - Medium Firm Gel Memory Foam Mattress is a great option. If cost is no issue I highly recommend the Tempur-Pedic Tempur-ProAdapt if you want something on the grandeur side and is a favorite for chronic pain sufferers and was top rated for 2024.

The right sheets for you
Get sheets that feel the best against your skin TO YOU. Not what others say or advertisers say are the best. Feel the difference between cotton, satin, and flannel. My favorite is a lightweight, soft cotton at least 400 thread count sheet. I love them clean and crisp and prefer to bleach for the cleanest and most hotel-like experience.
The perfect top cover
It is advised to put atop you a HEAVY blanket. It acts as a decompressor of sorts to weigh your body down. There are many to choose from. I like a fleece top blanket personally with a homemade quilt from my younger years. I also enjoy a down-alternative once in awhile. Weighted blankets have also come a long way. Below is a quick guide to top rated - BEST BLANKETS OF 2024 according to sleepfoundation.org:
Best Overall – Luxome Ultra Plush Throw
Most Luxurious – Saatva Organic Velvet Diamond Quilt
Most Comfortable – Cozy Earth Bamboo Blanket
Weighted – Silk & Snow Knit Weighted Blanket
Temperature Regulating – Luxome Lightweight Blanket
All-Season – Slumber Cloud Textured Blanket
Best Design – Buffy Puffer Blanket
Lastly, correct lighting
You don’t want to harsh overhead lights or something similar. Put a small lamp, either stand alone or on a side table or nightstand next to your bed. The lighting should be serene and soft. Find something that fits with your aesthetic or try something new. Either way put something next to you that will quietly guide you to your perfect sleep spot and you can easily turn off when you close your eyes.
Let me also offer you this:
If you insist on having your phone next to you, I strongly recommend turning the device face down and on silent. If you need an alarm as most folks including me do, purchase one separately. You can find many with additional features like white noise, quiet music, healing sounds, colored night lights etc. that you can set as background noise to help you fall asleep faster.
Establishing a nighttime routine will ensure you have the best chance at getting sleep. Here is a great article I like for great ideas to help encourage a good nights sleep.
Give yourself a real chance to have a restful night by either taking the plunge and purchasing a nice mattress like a Lull and then figure out what feels the best for you for pillows, sheets and blankets. Whether you sleep hot or need something heavy to keep you cozy the options above will not disappoint. Sleep is more important than almost anything else to maintain our health and well-being both physically and mentally.
A great night’s sleep will CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
With proper rest you’ll avoid certain health problems and improper digestion, inflammation will be reduced and you will have better control of bodily pain. Your best sleep is right around the corner. Cheers to a great rest my friend!
