8 Decorating Ideas for a Good Night's Sleep
Feeling rested in the morning seems to be a virtue only a few get to
experience. Most people complain about not getting enough sleep and
feeling drained when waking up. Although insomnia can be a medical
condition, in many cases, sleep deprivation is the result of living in
inadequate environments. This means that your bedroom's atmosphere may
be keeping you from sleeping.
Did you know we should spend one third of our lives sleeping? This may sound like a lot, but with stressful and hectic lives, our physical, emotional and mental health depend on it. If you are a lacking the needed Zs, here are eight decorating ideas to help you get back to the days when sleeping was a pleasure, and waking up was exciting.
Balancing act. To feel balanced and be centered on sleeping, place your bed against a solid wall and facing away from openings such as doors and windows. Also, use a sturdy headboard to create a sense of stability in your bed.
Bright lights be gone. A soothing room that helps you fall asleep faster should be dark or at the very least use soft lighting. Buy dimmer switches that allow you to control light in your room and turn it off when it's time to sleep. Minimize lighting coming from the outside. Add blackout liners on draperies to prevent light from disrupting your sleep, something all 5-star hotels practice.
Clean sweep. Get rid of clutter to give yourself some clarity of mind. Remember that at night, a messy bedroom will affect you. Even if you don't see it, you know the clutter is there. Do not place items under or around your bed, and let the area breathe. Dispose of things that don't serve a positive purpose and eliminate distractions such as open closets and overflowing dressers.
