Weighted Blankets 101

Here’s everything you should know about weighted blankets:

Weighted blankets are a type of weighted blanket that have extra weight added to them, through sand, lead or ceramic. They can help you get a better night’s sleep. The added weight helps your body feel more comfortable, and it can also help you fall asleep faster.

What are weighted blankets good for, and why should I get one?

Weighted blankets are good for people who have sleep disorders, like insomnia or restless leg syndrome (RLS), autism or other disabilities, but they are also helpful for people with PTSD or anxiety disorder who have trouble sleeping. They’re also good for people who have trouble staying asleep.

People often use weighted blankets because they want to improve their mental health by feeling more relaxed during the day and sleeping better at night.

The benefits of a weighted blanket are numerous, and include:

1. Reduced stress

2. Improved mood

3. Better sleep quality

4. Increased muscle relaxation and deep breathing

5. Increased mental clarity

So how does it work?

The heavier you make your blanket, the more pressure it will put on your muscles and nerves. This means that when you sleep with one, you’ll be able to relax more easily than if you were using a regular blanket or comforter without any weight. That helps reduce stress hormones like cortisol and offer you better overall health through improved circulation of blood throughout your body. A weighted blanket should be around 10% of your body weight, so try to find one around that percentage.

Which weighted blanket is the best for me?

There are many different types of weighted blankets available today, so it’s important to choose wisely if you’re going to buy one for your child or yourself! The best ones will have multiple layers of fabric with varying weights inside each layer so that there is enough pressure on the body throughout the night or day depending on how heavy it feels when lying down on top of it.
