Invest in rest
Mar, 2022
A good night’s sleep is among the most important things when it comes to our well-being and overall health. However, what works for people differs a lot– some like reading a book at night, while others prefer to stretch and perhaps drink a cup of tea. Whatever your routine is, we want to give you the right items so you can create the optimal setting for your sleep.

Why is sleep important?

Sleep is essential for us to function. It is as simple as that. Through our sleep, we recharge and prepare for the next day. It is important for our health, and sleep can help prevent different diseases and improve mental functions. Sleep also plays a big part in muscle growth and weight loss. In short, sleep is crucial for us to be able to work and function optimally. There can be many reasons for why people have trouble sleeping – from stress to diseases and diet. However, we want to focus on the bedroom, since a disruptive bedroom environment can have a contributing impact on a lack of sleep.

A bedroom for sleeping

While we all have different needs there are some advice that applies across the board, when it comes to creating a bedroom that is optimal for sleep. First, you need a bedroom that is right for you. That means creating a room that you find aesthetically pleasing and where you feel comfortable. At byNORD, we have a wide selection of calm, beautiful designs and colours, giving you plenty of choice when it comes to designing your bedroom.
Next, keep your bedroom free of clutter. You do not need to overdo it but keeping your bedroom clutter-free can greatly increase the feeling of calm – when you lie in bed your focus should not be on chores and cleaning, but on relaxing and resting. The great thing about bedding from byNORD is that you do not need to style it or make your bed every day. The calm colours and soft, crisp feel of the bedding make it a relaxing place to stay, but it also means that your bed looks great and cosy even when it has not been made. Finally, controlling the temperature in your bedroom is important, as being too hot can interrupt your sleep. Therefore, the crisp and breathable percale woven cotton of our bedding is great, as it gives a cool touch to the skin.

Bring it with you

While the bed is an obvious choice for resting, wrapping yourself in a blanket and taking the calmness of the bed with you to another place in the house is not a bad idea. Perhaps you need to stay warm and comfortable while sitting on the couch or need a quick powernap – just remember to keep it below 20 minutes, because that is when they work best. The great thing about our throws is that they are made to be used to wrap yourself in, while also functioning as a finishing touch to your bed.
