Would You Like To Sleep In A Womb?

One hotel in Shoreditch has taken ‘sleeping like a baby’ to another level. They have worked closely with Hope Bastine, a sleep psychologist to create hotel rooms that resemble the experience of being in the womb.

The beds themselves have a cocoon style, resembling the walls of the womb and the room is coloured and structured in a way which is meant to help encourage positivity, relaxation and REM-rich sleep.

 

Inspired by babies…

 

But what made The Zed Rooms think about the womb in particular? It’s not as random as it first sounds, as they looked at the sleep of babies in the womb during the later stages of pregnancy.

They discovered that during the 2 weeks of pregnancy, a baby dramatically increases REM sleep. In the final week of birth, REM sleep reaches a lifetime high of approximately 12 hours a day.

“The rooms also feature restorative scents and colours that relax muscles, invoke calm and mimic the moonlight; air cleansing soporific plants to eliminate toxins and healing background harmonies to unwind”.

If this wasn’t relaxing enough, they also offer yoga mats and a tablet using well loved app ‘Calm’. Every part of the room is tailor made to evoke specific emotions and to unlock your true sleep potential.

 

How much for a good sleep?

 

If you want to stay in this room for a night, you’ll have to pay £190 per night for the pleasure. So… how much are you willing to pay for a good nights sleep?

Everything You Need To Know About Pocket Spring Mattresses

Considering how long a mattress should last you? And how much of your time that you spend on it? Opting for high quality, handmade pocket sprung mattresses is always a better option than a cheap mattress. Pocket springs are a fundamental part of high-quality mattresses. Also, if you’re looking into buying a new one, it’ll help to fully understand what they are. So what exactly is a pocket sprung mattress?

Pocket Sprung Mattresses

Quite simply, a pocket sprung mattress has the springs sewn into individual fabric pockets. The surrounding fabrics function like shock absorbers. Essentially, this reduces bounce and increases the mattress’s firmness for increased comfort. Additionally, these mattresses provide much better support for your body, as each of the coils absorbs your weight individually. This allows the contours of your body to be uniformly supported.

Pocket Springs

Essentially, pocket springs themselves are rows of small springs, which are each housed separately from each other in individual fabric pockets.

The Benefits

These mattresses were created to help people suffering with back pain and bad joints. Providing them with a firm mattress offering targeted support for the body. This support, which helps to reduce pressure point pain, helps people to get a good nights sleep and some much needed pain relief. More importantly, pocket sprung mattresses are also great if there’s a weight or size difference between you and your partner. Furthermore, individual springs will work to take the weight of both of you individually. No more being lifted or rolled over!
