Gift Ideas this Holiday
Journal
According to research, people who have difficulty sleeping are more likely to stress and worry before going to bed. These unwanted thoughts can cause tension and anxiety, making people feel tense, when all they want is to relax. Encouraging them to write before night can enhance their sleep quality, increase their bedtime, and even lower stress.
Sleepwear
The key to a good night’s sleep is comfort. It’s practically hard to obtain a perfect sleep if you keep tossing, turning and struggling to get comfortable. Perhaps the issue is that you’re not wearing the proper sleepwear. This holiday, why not try to give your family and friends a sleepwear that is comfortable enough to get that sleep. Just make sure to check on their size before buying it.
Sleep Mask
Exposure to artificial light lowers melatonin, the sleep-inducing hormone, which can result in sleeping problems or disorder like insomnia. Light can also interfere with your internal biological ‘clock,’ which helps regulate your sleep-wake cycles.
Consider adding a sleep mask in your gift list to assist them in getting a better night’s sleep by filtering out artificial light and assisting in hormone balance.
Blanket
Sleeping with a blanket can help us manage with our lower nocturnal core body temperatures. It also raises serotonin and melatonin levels in our brain, which aids in relaxation and sleep. Aside from these comfortable blankets, you may also consider the weighted ones.
