I recently partnered with Tuft & Needle to take the #8hoursleepchallenge! I was given a linen duvet, linen sham sets, a new comforter, new pillows, and a new mattress all from Tuft & Needle, so that I could start the challenge in style. I don’t know about you guys, but when I love the way my bedroom looks, I am able to sleep so much better! What can I say, I’m a person that loves to be visually pleased (lol). A stylish and well organized room makes me happy!

Since I’ve had my Tuft & Needle mattress my sleep has vastly improved! I also came up with a nightly routine that has been helping me get my 8 hours of sleep each night.

–A few hours before bed, I like to drink sleepy time tea which warms me up and helps me start winding down.

–I’ve been reading for about an hour before going to bed each night instead of watching shows on my laptop which is what I used to do. Lights from laptop screens make your mind restless so it’s harder for you to fall asleep. Reading a good old book at night helps me get sleepy! Here’s the book I’m currently reading.

-About 30 minutes before I go to sleep, I’ve been taking a natural sleeping aid supplement with GABA, Melatonin, Valerian, Passion Flower, and Chamomile. This is the one I’m taking and it really helps!

-In the winter, my room gets really cold at night so I wake up with a stuffed nose. I’ve been putting a little bit of peppermint on my nose and temples to help keep my sinuses clear. My new Tuft & Needle comforter is really thick so I’ve been a sleeping a lot warmer since I got it.

-I like to keep a glass of water by my bedside so that if I wake up really thirsty, I don’t have to get up for water.

-Sleeping on a comfy pillow with good support, like the ones from Tuft & Needle, is key!

-I also just make sure that I am going to be bed at a time that will allow me 8 hours of sleep before my alarm goes off.

Getting a full 8 hours of sleep helps me to feel my best and gives me the energy that I need to get all my work done for the day and still have time to do things that I enjoy like reading or listening to records. I cannot stress enough how important sleep is, especially for your mental and physical health. I encourage all of you to take the #8hoursleepchallenge too and what better way to start then with new bedding!

The awesome part about ordering from Tuft & Needle is that you get free shipping, a 100-night sleep trial, and 10-year no hassle warranty! Returns are donated to local charities and non-profits across the country which is amazing. All of their US made products are high quality and honestly priced. I cannot recommend this brand more for all of you’re bedding needs!
