0 Comments Published by Brian Yalung November 20th, 2008 in How to sleep better, SLEEP News, Sleep Issues.
Simmons bedding has been known to unveil an aggressive array of mattresses over the months to boost its sales. But one line of mattress that is bound to draw a lot of attention is this partnership that they had gotten into with Dow Chemical Company using selected bio-based foam made with natural oil-based polyols created via RENUVA™ Renewable Resource Technology.
The materials used in mattresses does indeed play a vital role in delivering quality sleep and respite and from the looks of it, this new eco-friendly bedding line from Simmons Bedding Company is bound to settle most of these issues.
“RENUVA makes it possible for the Natural Care collection to be even more eco-friendly while allowing us to maintain the quality, comfort and durability that consumers associate with Simmons products. It is wonderful to see that major companies like Dow are recognizing the need for environmentally responsible options, and we look forward to the sustainable solutions Dow will develop in the future.”

Employees Need More Naps
0 Comments Published by Brian Yalung June 20th, 2008 in Health Issues, How to sleep better, SLEEP News, Sleep Business.
In a world where you just have to live wiser and perform according to what companies are paying you for, employees need to know when they should also reach the point of overdoing it. It is true that employees would be wise to know when to take a break, short naps that can help them maintain their level of efficiency when they are on the job.
Allowing employees to nap is fine but while many companies are hesitant due to abuse, here are some reasons why employees need naps:
Here are five tips from 1800mattress.com consultants on how to improve Sleep Quality without changing Sleep Quantity:
Sleep Schedule: Try your best to stay on a regular pattern of going to sleep and getting up to within a one-hour window for consistency.
Wind Down Routine: Establish a regular routine to follow before sleep to help train the body to wind down and to prepare for sleep. Avoid bringing laptops, blackberries, etc., into the bedroom to limit distractions.
Sleep Temperature: Try to have your bedroom between 65-70 degrees as cooler environments are more conducive to prolonged sleep and can minimize sleep disturbances through the night.
Limit Distraction: If you must watch TV, have it on a sleep timer. Try and keep the room as dark and quiet as possible. Turn alarm clocks so you can’t see their glow as the urge to check the time can add to stress and disturb rest.Inspect your mattress: If it squeaks, you wake up with back pain, toss and turn at night, sleep better away from home, etc., it’s probably time for a new mattress. The item most depended on to provide restorative sleep could be the biggest reason you are not getting it. Mattresses should be replaced every 5-7 years.

Sleep Solutions Showcased at the Big Sleep Show
0 Comments Published by Brian Yalung May 20th, 2008 in SLEEP News, Sleep Cures, Sleep Events.
We all know that trade shows are normally held to provide alternative solutions to various needs and issues today. The Big Sleep Show is a first of its kind, aimed at helping the sleep deprived people we have today and perhaps show them ways of remedying their sleeping problems.
There are a lot of people who have inherited this dreaded sleeping problem and apparently most of them will be trooping down to Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Ill. which hosts a wide array of gadgets and mattresses that can really be a big help for people who want to get the proper sleep due to them.
The show, which organizers say is one of the first of its kind, is the latest sign of a booming, multibillion-dollar industry geared toward the 70 million Americans believed to suffer from sleep problems.
Though scientists say it’s not clear whether people’s sleep has grown worse in recent years, it has by some accounts become scarcer: A survey by the federal government found that compared with 1985, more people today get by on six hours or less. The average adult needs seven to nine.

Well, the mattresses should be on sale at our sister site, keetsa.com soon.
Until we do have it on sale, you can check out dirt cheap deals on Back-to-school items at our sister site, Bedzine Mattress Store.
These are great mattresses. They all come with “Green Tea Memory Foam”, which has Green Tea extracts to keep the mattress smelling fresh and you can benefit from Green Tea extracts. There’s also “NanoSilver” technology which kills bacteria. The best feature is that all the mattresses have cedar oil which keep spiders, moths, and other bugs away.
How are our mattresses eco-friendly?
First, we use 100% recycled steel for the springs and more than 75% of all the mattresses are made from recycled or recycle-able materials. Cool huh?
Another way we plan to cut the carbon footprint is by having all these mattressed compressed into a box. We invented a new way of compressing the spring coils at the factory so it fits in a box.

Soft Clothes Bring Soft Sleep
0 Comments Published by Brian Yalung July 13th, 2007 in Dreams, How to sleep better, Pajamas, SLEEP Fun, SLEEP Video, Sleep Wear, Snoring.Who says babies need to have the thick and soft cushions to be able to sleep well? With the help of fabric softeners and proper laundry on clothes, the search for the soft and comfortable position that infants look for can be gotten even from parents who wear hygiene and well-maintained clothes.
For babies, foams or mattresses are not really the key towards being able to sleep soundly. Sometimes if they get to satisfy that position and overall softness when they lie down, they can openly sleep despite the distractions such as loud snoring, that may hinder their sleep.
