Your bedroom is more than just a place to sleep; it’s a sanctuary where you can unwind, relax, and rejuvenate. By making a few simple upgrades, you can transform your bedroom into a luxurious haven that nurtures your well-being. I’ve been on a mission to make your rooms more luxurious so here are some things I considered.
Start with the Best Bed
We’ve always been firm believers in spending as much as we physically can to get the best mattress we can afford. You really have to girl math a mattress, think how you sleep on it every single night, break down the cost for how much you’ll spend per year on a good nights sleep. We all have incredible beds in my house, mostly using products from Simba.
Invest in Good Bedding
One of the most indulgent upgrades you can make to your bedroom is investing in good quality cotton bedding, especially Egyptian cotton bedding. We’ve been trying out belledorm and their 400tc Egyptian Cotton and it’s seriously so lovely! Egyptian cotton is renowned for its superior quality and luxurious feel. The extra-long fibers of this cotton variety create a softer and more durable fabric, ensuring a lavish and comfortable sleep experience.
A few years ago my friend and I got into cotton bedding and we haven’t looked back! We sleep like babies and we’ve even gone on to buy it for other people because it’s truly such an experience that once you’ve tried, you won’t want to go back. Plus it’s super durable. I used to go through bedding sets (always donated to animal shelters) so quickly but after investing in quality bedding, I haven’t had to buy again and I can see this set lasting a lifetime!
The benefits of Egyptian cotton bedding extend beyond its luxury. The breathable and moisture-wicking properties of this fabric help regulate body temperature, keeping you cool in summer and warm in winter. This natural ventilation promotes a comfortable sleep environment, reducing the chances of night sweats and discomfort. After all, sleep and rest is the most important thing your body needs.
This range at belledorm is currently on offer which is the most perfect time to shop.
Splurge on Quality Duvet and Pillows
To enhance the luxurious ambiance of your bedroom, it is essential to invest in a high-quality duvet and pillow. A plush, comfortable duvet provides the perfect combination of warmth and softness, ensuring a cosy and restful sleep. We’ve been using the EarthKind™ Synthetic Duvet and it is super luxurious. We picked the Winter Duvet because even in Summer I love to be snug as a bug and use thicker duvets to cushions for comfort.
You can probably imagine by their name but EarthKind™ are a great environmentally friendly company with 100% recycled fillings and they’re working towards zero waste!
Choosing the right pillows is crucial for a good night’s sleep. The ideal pillow should provide support for your head, neck, and shoulders, aligning your spine and relieving pressure points. Some nights I find myself sleeping with 6 pillows, and the other nights just a single one. I like having the options depending on my pain levels and the EarthKind™ Synthetic Medium Support Back Sleeper Pillows and super luxurious. They’re very soft and comfortable and such a pleasure to sleep on!
Creating a Relaxing Environment
I really feel like I’ve nailed being able to create a relaxing environment in bedrooms. We’ve used everything from mood lighting diffusers to air purifiers with essential oils to galaxy lights, Dyson fans, aircon units and sound machines to achieve the perfect sleep conditions. I’ve definitely found one of the best ways to relax is with essential oils, everything from sleep sprays to something new and more cat friendly I’ve found, the Boostology Volcanic Potpourri.
This is a super interesting concept where the beautiful-looking black volcanic rocks hold onto the essential oil blend and slowly soak it up and releases the scent over time! It’s much better than spraying my bedding with oils that the cats don’t like or pumping them into the air with a diffuser and it looks so visually pleasing too!
Importance of a Good Night’s Sleep on Health
Creating a luxurious bedroom isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s also about prioritising your health and well-being. A good night’s sleep plays a vital role in maintaining physical, mental, and emotional health.
Sleep deficiency can have a profound impact on your overall well-being. It can lead to increased stress levels, impaired cognitive function, a weakened immune system, and a higher risk of developing serious chronic conditions.
By investing in a luxurious bedroom upgrade, you are setting the stage for a restorative sleep experience. The combination of Egyptian cotton bedding, quality duvets, and pillows suited to how you sleep creates an environment that promotes relaxation and comfort, allowing you to drift off into a deep and uninterrupted sleep.
Transforming your bedroom into a luxurious haven is a worthwhile investment in your sleep quality and overall well-being. Remember, a good night’s sleep is essential for a healthy mind and body. So, take the time to create a luxurious bedroom retreat that nurtures your sleep, and you’ll reap the benefits of improved health and well-being.
