Dream the night away

Think of the best sleep of your life, and then imagine something 10 times better. The superlative-adorned sibling to the regular throw blanket, weighted blankets have become the bedroom accessory du jour: perfect for soothing anxious sleepers, relieving stress, encouraging a deeper sleep and all-round helping you to wake up feeling a little more refreshed. Even if the initial weight surprises you a little, you’ll start to understand the benefits after a few nights of being swaddled in soft comfort. 

It’s thought the consistent deep pressure of this heavy blanket helps to release feel-good hormones like serotonin in your brain, comforting your body as you dream the night away. Wrapped up tight and reminiscent of a reassuring hug, you’ll find yourself feeling a little bereft next time you — gasp — try to sleep without one. From the best weighted blankets for couples to the washable weighted blanket, we swaddled ourselves through some of the best you can buy for an unparalleled, restful sleep.
