Sleep Better with a
Sleep Friendly Room
|
When it's time to rest, relax, and recharge after a busy day,
your bedroom should be a quiet, peaceful haven that allows you to enjoy deep,
rejuvenating sleep.
One way to promote healthy sleep, according to an article by
Claire Anderson in Mother Earth News, is by "renewing your room" to make it a
clean, "green," comfortable haven.
- Repaint with no-VOC or low-VOC paints.
VOC stands for Volatile Organic Compounds, a class of
chemicals you may not want to have as a sleeping partner. According to the
EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) VOC's are respiratory irritants that
can inflame the nose, throat and lungs. Some have even been linked to brain
damage, birth defects and cancer.
- Use soothing colors, not bright obnoxious colors that
will keep you awake.
- Choose solid wood furniture, new or used.
It's the healthy alternative to particle-board furniture
which can release toxic formaldehyde into the air.
- Be sure to use the recommended amount of padding on
your VISCO mattress.
We recommend purchasing a fitted mattress pad cover
and fitted sheet to cover both the mattress and the topper. These items can
be purchased from us or at most linen supply stores.
